Many people argue that
language
learners
should take part in
classes
with few
students
present
instead
of participating in crowded courses. I totally agree with
this
idea.
That is
because,
although
learning a new
language
requires
time
and effort from each and every learner,
students
might not get enough
time
in traditional
classes
.
However
, if the
classes
are divided into separate parts of teaching and getting
feedback
from the
students
, I believe the teaching part could be taught to a big audience.
Unlike many courses we take in our lifetime,
language
learners
need to be given some
time
to comprehend and use the lesson they learned in the same session before they forget about it. Unless
students
use the
language
and receive
feedback
from their teacher, they cannot be sure they understand everything correctly.
For instance
, in mathematics, you just need to solve the exercises on your own to be sure you follow the materials.
Thus
, having too many
students
in one
class
will not allow the
teachers
to devote
time
to each student in a
class
.
Moreover
, if the sessions take too long,
students
' efficiency will decrease and
this
will damage their education.
On the other hand
,
teachers
can teach in big audiences and get
feedback
in small groups.
This
will not only allow the
teachers
to dedicate enough
time
for each student without prolonging the length of the sessions
,Remove the comma
show examples
but
also
, save them from repeating themselves over and over in each
class
.
For instance
, I remember participating in big
classes
to prepare for the English
language
part of my university entrance exam. We were taught the necessary lessons and
then
we would return to our tiny groups to practice with our
teachers
and frankly, it turned out great. So,
although
students
will benefit from having fewer classmates, some aspects of the teaching process could be done in big groups.
To conclude
, there is a debate between people who believe
language
could be taught just like the way other subjects are taught, and, those who think it would be more suitable if there are little
learners
in the
class
. Personally, I think the latter group is right. Indeed,
language
learners
need
time
to practice with their teacher and
this
cannot be achieved in a crowded
class
. Indeed, parts of the
classes
could be managed in a big
class
because they do not require
feedback
from
students
. But generally, The fewer classmates the better.
