Language teachers should concentrate on giving feedback to students when they do good work, rather than on criticising bad work.

In my home country of Brazil, teaching fashions have changed over the decades and today many

language

teachers stress rewarding good work with positive feedback more than criticizing mistakes.

, giving

language

students

criticism may still be important, but it should be done in a constructive way. On the one hand, receiving praise for good work helps encourage

students

, which is essential because learning a

language

is often challenging for

students

.

This

is not just a benefit for individuals but it will

also

motivate the whole class to work harder and participate more. As we know,

will keep on making the same mistakes if they are not told about it. Some of these mistakes are basic grammar and the
