II II SOLUTION DESCRIPTION Describe the solution before creating the initiative 1.1 Advantages a To the teacher - Complete the subject tasks with good quality - Although there are objective and subjective conditions that directly affect the teaching process, I know how to overcome the immediate difficulties and gradually improve the quality of English listening lessons to meet the program purposes, new textbooks - Has relatively well approached to use typical teaching techniques, listening techniques and actively with the way of organizing a listening lesson - Flexible coordination of teaching techniques - Using and operating modern teaching equipment to serve the listening teaching process: video cassettes, projectors b To the students - Students have been gradually familiar with the subject of listening - Many students have heard and recognized the voice of native speakers - Most of the students listened to the listening lessons with simple content, just had to fulfill the teacher's requirements and exercises after listening for the 3rd time - Some students have developed skills and techniques in learning 1.2 Limit - Students' motivation to understand English is still limited - Many student have little opportunity to listen, less access to mass information through which they can listen to English - Some student are afraid to listen and speak in English, afraid of making mistakes - Students are not familiar with the speed of reading and speaking in tapes of the British - Teaching aids for teaching are too few Describe the solution after the initiative 2.1 Basic factors that directly affect the effectiveness of listening lessons a Teacher With new and active teaching methods, teachers play the role of directing and controlling students' activities in class To conduct an effective listening lesson, teachers need to well the following basic elements: + Choose and flexibly use listening teaching techniques suitable to each lesson content + Organize and control the class, allocate time reasonably + Proficiently use teaching aids and tools for teaching listening + Create appropriate teaching aids for the lesson + Inspiring, engaging and engaging students b Listening Techniques - Listening Techniques - The method of teaching listening is regulated by the content of listening teaching, in other words, the content of the listening lesson governs the selection and coordinated application of listening teaching methods and techniques Each teaching technique is suitable for a particular form of teaching c The means, equipment, and teaching aids in service of teaching listening - The use of picture equipment to support teaching foreign languages in general and English in particular is considered a means of expressing part of the main content of the textbook In all units of the new textbook program, the content of the listening lesson is recorded on the disc, while the textbook only prints the listening exercises To perform well in these listening exercises, learners must listen to the lesson content on the disc Moreover, teaching equipment is also an active means in innovating teaching methods, motivating and stimulating learning d Student - In the relationship between teaching and learning: The teacher is the organizer and controls the students to gain knowledge by their own manipulations and intellectual actions under the role of organizing and controlling by the teacher In order to teach listening well, students need to have the necessary skills in listening comprehension in English 2.2 Some practical solutions to conduct an effective listening lesson a Plan a listening lesson - For teacher: In order for a lesson to be heard well, the teacher needs to perform the following steps: + Carefully study the content taught from textbooks and teachers' books: Textbooks and textbooks are an important basis for teachers to plan their teaching for the lesson The careful study of textbooks and textbooks will help teachers organize and control listening lessons to the right focus and focus; Allocate time for steps and activities in a scientific manner + Research the purpose and requirements of the lesson: The purpose and requirements of the lesson are the goals that both teachers and students need to achieve after the lesson For listening lessons, usually the purpose and requirements of the lesson are to help students practice and develop skills: Listening (listening), Speaking (speaking), Reading (reading), Writing (writing) (in listening skill is the key), after finishing the listening part, students understand the main content of the listening lesson and some language requirements or exercises + Selecting and coordinating listening teaching techniques flexibly and appropriately: The selection of listening teaching techniques must be determined on the basis of the content of the lesson, the class's characteristics and capabilities, and the students' skills Stages in the process of teaching listening include stages: the stage before listening (Pre-Listening), the stage while listening (While-listening), the practice phase "Post-listening" In each stage, there are specific listening techniques suitable for each stage Make good use of teaching aids and tools for listening lessons: + Using cassettes, computers: Before teaching, it is necessary to prepare a good machine, clear tape and backup batteries in case of power failure Must ensure safety when operating + Using illustrations: mainly picture channels in textbooks, pictures on the Internet suitable for the content of the lesson One of the strengths of the textbooks compiled under the new program is that there are many illustrations Making the most of the pictures in the textbook to help students understand the new lesson is the focus in all lessons + It is necessary to make a reasonable and scientific lesson plan Teachers need to clearly plan their activities, students' activities, time for activities, requirements of each exercise, and student's answer options + Discussing teaching plans The effectiveness of the listening lesson will be enhanced if the teaching plan is discussed with colleagues before teaching this job, which not only brings positive results to the listening lesson but also other skills - For students: The teacher asks students to prepare well for the next class by: + Create system of prompting questions about the lesson they are about to learn so that students have time to think and learn about the material + Ask students to some exercises related to the content of the listening lesson + Encourage and motivate students to confidently, proactively and creatively raise problems and questions related to the content of the lesson b Implement the process of teaching listening well - For a grammar or vocabulary lesson, usually in the course of the lesson there are stages: Presentation - Practice - Production The progress of a listening lesson must also go through stages: Pre - Listening, While Listening, and Post - Listening This teaching process not only helps students understand the lesson, but also helps them use listening skills in real-life communication However, the prerequisite is that teachers need to clearly define the purpose and requirements of each specific listening lesson, thereby orienting students to perform well the task in the next stages + Pre - Listening: (about 10-minutes) (T/F, Prediction, Open Prediction, Ordering, Pre- Questions) This is the stage to help students have orientation, think about the topic or situation before they listen Teachers should create attitude to prepare for the listening test by leading and prompting questions about the listening topic, asking students to look at the pictures, read the words and guess what topic they are about to listen to, who is about to listen talk to Teachers can ask students to work in groups to make preliminary guesses about what they are about to hear through pictures or listening situations Maybe they're not saying exactly what they're about to hear, but the question is whether they're interested before listening Teachers help student anticipate problems with pronunciation or new structures Finally, the teacher clearly tells the students how many times they will be heard and instructs the task requirements when listening (choose true, false, answer the question) + While - Listening: (about 20-minutes) (Selecting, Deliberate Mistakes, Grids, Listen and Draw, Comprehension Questions) This is the stage where students have the opportunity to practice At this stage, the teacher gives the types of exercises, asking students to perform Students can make mistakes at this stage, so teachers should pay attention to correct students' mistakes and give correct answer options The teacher plays the video of the listening lesson to times For the first time, help students familiarize themselves with the listening comprehension and cover the content of the listening passage The second time, listen to the correct information to complete the exercise The third time, listen and check the exercise done The main goal of listening comprehension is that students listen to the main content or get detailed information and understand the author's attitude and point of view Therefore, teachers let students listen to the whole lesson so that they can understand the general idea as well as the structure of the whole lesson and the exercises, then can listen to each passage again to understand the results or listen to difficult places to confirm the answer judgment Should limit students to listen to each sentence, or word by word because doing so will make learners have the habit of having to understand the meaning of each word when listening When practicing listening we should rewind important words and statements to inform the central information content of the listening lesson that students have not understood through two times of listening to the disc Rewind the video where and how many times depends on the difficulty of each specific case I have chosen, used and flexibly coordinated listening teaching methods and techniques to attract and engage students in the content of the listening lesson by means of activities and listening techniques suitable for each stage of a listening lesson It is necessary to create opportunities for students to practice necessary skills while listening such as guessing words, guessing content in context, listening to match information with pictures, listening to fill in information on the board Developing and designing lesson plans for the lesson: Once there are documents and scenarios for the lesson, teachers can proceed to design a detailed lesson plan for the lesson To ensure the time, the content for the lesson, the teacher must create audio files, video files, cut and paste files to suit the content of the design format in the lesson (using the software that movies, change movie formats: video converter, video studio, audio file cutting software (Mp3 cutter) ) When developing lesson plans, teachers must anticipate difficult problems, problems arising in the teaching process (anticipate problems) so that they can actively handle situations arising in the lesson In particular, there are difficult listening exercises such as answering questions, often students can not it I redesigned it into exercises like completing open-ended sentences, or filling in the blanks, true/false After doing this test, students can go back to answering the questions in the textbook more easily boredom in listening lessons Because after listening, they can repeat some of the content they have just heard in many other ways Technique of group division is also quite important in the teaching process Students should have the opportunity to work in diverse groups with many different members Usually, I group them by attendance book, by color, by flowers, by seasons of the year, by month of birth, or by hobby groups so that they can a favorite job together or express the results of the group's work in forms suitable to their strengths For example: Group of Painters, Group of Poets, Group of Orators, Diversify, adjust tasks and exercises to suit students Method 1: Adjust the difficulty of the exercise With the same exercise, I usually adjust the difficulty level of the exercise and give various types of exercises such as word filling, phrase filling, correct answer selection, correct wrong choice, question answer, etc different levels of students Method 2: Additional exercises I usually prepare some extra assignments for the better students because these students usually finish the class work before the weaker students After the students presented, I let all the participating groups contribute comments and additions The teacher records all comments, answers questions, comments, supplements, closes the correct ideas for discussion exercises or evaluates the products of each group, indicates the achieved and unsatisfactory points for students to receive amendments and additions I often praise, encourage, motivate, present groups, and supplement to support each group, each student Thereby, I had the opportunity to share, exchange, learn, and evaluate the students' acquisition of lessons and creative thinking In addition, in some lessons, students prepare their own presentations with Powerpoints, practical videos about volunteer activities that students have done to help student with disabilities, orphanages, green sunday….very touching and meaningful Then, the groups send their preparation to the teacher via email, and present it in front of the class This very meaningful activity inspired all students in the class, boosted the spirit of learning English, made students confident when presenting in front of the class, and encouraged the community spirit of all students Personally, after applying these tips in my teaching, I find that my lessons are more successful My lessons are all highly appreciated by the professional group, the school's pedagogical council The specific results of a lesson are illustrated as follows: English 10: (Textbook) Illustrated lesson plan: Period 68: UNIT 12: LISTENING I Objectives By the end of the lesson, students should be able to: - Listen for gist and specific

Read Unit - Writing at home Experienced lessons After successfully applying this topic, I myself have achieved significant results and valuable experiences for myself as follows: - Teachers must always create a foreign language environment during class hours and must use English as the main language for communication Depending on the grade and audience, teachers can use short, simple, easy-tounderstand, easy-to-remember English sentences + Teachers must always encourage students to use English to communicate with their learned knowledge + Teachers should not pay too much attention to students' mistakes while speaking Let the student listen and speak naturally Never force a student to stop speaking while he or she is trying to express his or her thoughts in English; doing so will make them feel afraid to listen and speak + Teachers should integrate English listening and speaking activities with the form of "playing and learning." + Guide student to practice listening to English through radio, TV - Teachers need to attract and attract students by means of activities and listening techniques suitable for each stage of a listening lesson - Use listening aids suitable to the content of the listening lesson such as pictures, models - At the practice stage after listening, teachers need to give appropriate exercises with high practical communication features 2.4 Teaching students how to practice thinking skills in English - Thinking in English is one of the best practice methods so that we can speak English fluently in a short time However, our brain often receives new language through the mother tongue "channel" and then translates from the mother tongue to the new language Therefore, many of us have difficulty practicing thinking in English and often thinking in English after a while of trying because of the habit of translating from Vietnamese to English - To form the habit of thinking in English, we need to get out of the environment of using our mother tongue, and make English a part of our lives The initial feeling is difficult in generally when even thinking must be done in a language other than one's mother tongue, but once you get over this feeling, everything becomes much easier + Ask students to collect a certain amount of material on a certain topic each day Find the vocabulary that the student not know, record and learn the word family, accompanying phrases, antonyms, synonyms Try to use according to specific circumstances to make words your own (make sentences, association, ) + Listen every day: Guide students to good and useful websites to listen to English every day Students often save it to their phones, or mp3 players to listen to anytime, anywhere When listening, students can turn on the subtitles Those are some websites: http://www.manythings.org/voa/history/ VOA Special English BBC Learning English - Minute English + Encourage students to often write what they like For example, keep a diary in English and write about your favorite topics Write one topic each day and work on it gradually After a while looking back at the first pages, the students realized their blunders and mistakes + Choose books and stories related to your favorite topic to be inspired to read to avoid boredom, reading stories should have plot content that will be easier to visualize in guessing the meaning of words Limit looking up the dictionary while reading because looking up words will interrupt the visualization of the story's content, you should only look up the meaning of words that appear many times without guessing the meaning It is not necessary to look up new words constantly because it is easy to forget immediately and easily frustrated + Guide students to watch foreign movies with Vietnamese subtitles every day + Both teachers and students collect English newspapers with historical events for students to read every day + Every day read a news in English These are simple things that we can every day to get used to thinking in English + Regularly practice the exercise "Write whatever you think": It sounds very simple, but this exercise requires learners to completely correct the habit inherent in learning English Usually, when we want to write a sentence or an English text, we often think about the content in Vietnamese first, and then think about how the content will be written in English This way will take a lot of time to write, so we can sit for hours and not write a short English paragraph Students just need to take out a piece of paper and write, they can think of a topic in advance or not, then write everything they think of in English No need to worry about vocabulary Don't give your brain time to think about what you can and can't do, because then your brain will think in Vietnamese by natural reflex Just write down "I can eat more than my brother", "I can't chat with my friends today", and so on, write everything you think in English, regardless of what it means or meaningless, because in the beginning, we can't master our thoughts right away and often the ideas will not be logical, but this is not an essay for grading, so simply write down what you think right away , in English Just like that, practice for at least 30 minutes a day, or take advantage of your free time even if it's only for or 10 minutes, take a piece of paper and write down your thoughts in English, no need to refine grammar or how to use words, no need to worry about logic or expressions, simply "write what you think", we will quickly train the brain with the initial basic steps to think in English + Speed exercises: Try looking around the room or around the position we are sitting, when we see any object, for example a table, we often not immediately think of "table" But we often think it is “cái bàn” first, then "the “Cái bàn” in English is a table", or we have just stepped out of an airconditioned room, the weather outside is very hot, sometimes we immediately think "it's so" hot”? We often think “it’s too hot!” Then think about how it is said in English This way of thinking is a big barrier that makes it difficult for us to learn English So we: "practice speed!" This speed training helps us get used to thinking in English effectively As soon as we see a person, thing or thing around, hear a sound, immediately turn it out in English For example, when someone tells you "màu đỏ", say "red" right away, don't let your brain have time to translate "màu đỏ" Just pop out the English words about things, events, the people we see, the sounds we hear or the things we feel about the life around us Try looking around us, there will be at least objects that we know their names in English When you wake up every morning, see what the weather is like, spit out a quick sentence about your thoughts, just like that, we will see our thinking habits change change after a short period of practice, and you will be surprised to see a new step forward in learning how to think in English + Learn phrases and sentence patterns instead of single words Why is this an effective way to learn to think in English? If we only learn single words, when we need to express ideas with long sentences, we will spend a lot of time figuring out how to put the single words together, and sometimes putting the single words together in such a way but makes the listener not understand or misunderstand because in English the expression may be completely different For example, when we want to say "it makes no sense to listen to what he says", if we translate from Vietnamese to English by combining single words, the answer will be "Listening to what he says is useless", but if we knowing the structure "It's no use/it's useless doing something", it will be simple to express the above sentence naturally "It's no use listening to him" So, learn phrases and sentence patterns to communicate in English fluently and naturally instead of trying to cram many single words into your vocabulary + Use English - English dictionary Do not use English - Vietnamese dictionary It is best to use an English - English dictionary to look up the pronunciation, context of words and more importantly, to practice thinking about vocabulary in English, gradually getting used to thinking in English The Oxford Dictionary is our most trusted dictionary + Making the most of the school's bookcase, students can get a lot of resources for themselves such as: English for fun Luyện siêu trí nhớ từ vựng tiếng Anh Sách học tiếng Anh cấp tốc English Grammar in use 3500 từ vựng tiếng Anh + Practice talking to yourself We often say that we not have an English environment to communicate, so let's create an English environment for ourselves “Talk to yourself” is an extremely useful exercise in training thinking in English in particular and practicing speaking English in generally Speak English by yourself in front of a mirror or talk to yourself while sitting alone, the best way is to think of a topic, then you will act as two people with two opposing views and talk about that topic yourself This exercise not only helps us think in English in a flexible and multi-dimensional way, but also helps us practice quick reflexes in communication Besides, I can record what I say, then listen and correct my pronunciation and word mistakes This is a very effective method of learning English “Practice makes perfect”, practice every day to achieve the fastest and best effect! Spend at least 30 minutes each day for exercises, or take advantage of the free time in the day, even if it's only or 10 minutes, a little bit each day will help us quickly build a solid foundation for the journey Conquer and master English! Take action now with these exercises, we will learn how to think effectively in English! + Learn to listen - speak first, read - write later: This allows you to create a natural listening - speaking reflex without having to think in your head in your mother tongue and translate At the same time, when learning ListeningSpeaking first, the spoken language will be learned, creating vividness in sentences, significantly improving vocabulary skills and thereby forming a natural sentence structure + Have a vocabulary notebook: We can divide the book into many different topics to gather vocabulary: Money, Food, Clothes, Travel, Music… Each page should have an illustration of the theme to make increase interest From there, it will be easy to review and systematize them every two weeks + Change the language in your phone, computer, TV to English + Narrate your day: Every day we act as the narrator of our life You can use first or third person to describe all the things that are going on Thinking in English is an extremely necessary method if we want to have good English reflexes Learning English will be really effective when it is learned and thought in the right way The most important thing is still a passion for learning, having a passion is that students will be motivated to learn and will progress IV EFFICIENCY FROM INITIALITY Economic efficiency When this initiative is applied to improve the effectiveness of listening lessons, it will be a driving force to stimulate the love of foreign language learning in students Therefore, students learn foreign languages more voluntarily and comfortably, the learning efficiency will be improved As a result, they will have a certain amount of foreign language that is enough to serve higher education or work after graduating from high school without having to spend a lot of time and money to re-study at foreign language centers A new time to go to work as the current common situation Therefore, job opportunities for them will also be higher than those with poorer language ability Socially effective Based on the characteristics of the subject, it is a communication-oriented language subject, and communication effectiveness reflects the language ability of learners Therefore, by flexibly applying teaching methods in listening lessons, we have created a real language environment for students to practice in the most natural way and thereby promote students' sense of self-study Selfstudy a problem in a specific situation according to the topic of the lesson Specifically, in the past school year, I have implemented this method very successfully in classes where students have good language ability and really focus on foreign language subject The groups of students after receiving the assignment were very active in learning and building very good conversations, presentations and lively discussions In particular, this method also promotes the ability to apply information technology to present problems very flexibly and effectively The most obvious manifestation of this result is that the students are very excited about the listening lesson, the situation of sitting still during the listening hours has ended, the vocabulary is expanded, helping students to be much more confident when practicing Listening and speaking practice at the same time in foreign language lessons Applicability and Scalability The methods designed in this form can be applied in all English lessons to increase students' attention and participation in the lesson, make the lesson lively and promote more effective learning Students' activeness, initiative and creativity At the same time, teachers can flexibly apply this method according to students' ability to design lessons and it is very convenient for teachers to use this method in all three grades 10, 11 and 12 This initiative has used and shared for colleagues in the team to apply in English teaching classes for grades 10, 11 and 12 from September 2020 to present V GUARANTEE NO COPYRIGHT OR COPYRIGHT VIOLATION I would like to assure you that this is an initiative of my own experience, enriching knowledge through the teaching process, as well as the process of teaching, learning from colleagues and referring to materials for teaching subjects Evaluation of school – level council of scientists UNIT APPLIED IDEA (Validation, assessment and grading) (Signed and sealed) Assesment of sectoral council of scientists (Validation, assessment and grading) (Signed and sealed) REFERENCES Practical handbook of language teaching (David Cross) A course in language teaching -
