METHODOLOGICAL PROBLEMS FOR A FOREIGN LANGUAGE TEACHER: MONITORING AND ASSESSING SKILLS
Abstract
Speech, skills and abilities in a foreign language are monitored by the teacher and the administration. In the assessment of skills, the standard of using the types of speech activities as a means of communication is measured. Listening comprehension comprehension at the word level is fragmentary in nature. Understanding of sentences is based on their syntactic structure. Complex syntactic understanding means dividing them into meaningful parts. Listening comprehension at the text level involves understanding the style and genre of the text. Today, more emphasis is placed on context and communicative factors in the assessment of speaking. The skills of expressing an oral opinion are checked in oral form.
