It's about foreign language
teaching:
methods, techniques, strategies,
and... something else!
About Me
Hello! My name is Alfonso
Puello. I am from one of the most beautiful cities in Colombia: Cartagena. I teach Methodology of Spanish as a Foreign Language in the School of Communication Sciences of the Universidad
de Antioquia, Medellin. My
pastimes and interests are wood carving, going outdoors,
and guess what? computers!
About My Work
I am a teacher trainer in TEFL methodology and I have published
articles on foreign language teaching. I am very much involved with research
on language teaching resources and instructional media. I am also the author
of the book Foreign Language Teaching.
In Short...
The main purpose of this book is to help teachers
and teacher trainees to become better informed about the subject of foreign
language teaching. The first four chapters are turned mainly towards theoretical
aspects of language teaching, approaches, and methods. The remaining chapters
point towards the questions of strategies and activities which constitute
the teachers' "daily bread" and which they make use of in a particular
area of the curriculum.
University of Antioquia Language School
The major programmes leading to a university degree in the
School of Languages are designed to train students in the fields of
foreign
language teaching and translation. These two programmes also
offer the possibility for continuing education and specialization.
The School also offers ESP courses for those students
who choose to be trained in the reading comprehension of a foreign language.
The Extension programme is designed to give adult students
the possibility to take English courses tailored to meet their needs and
interests.
