Hi
I'm new here, and glad to have found such a great resource
Currently, I'm having some issues with the pre-task for my CELTA application. For the most part, i have no issues but I'm stuck with two of the questions
Normally i wouldn't ask, but i believe them to pertain to areas for which the courses are designed (teaching HOW to teach, rather than rules of language)
The questions are regarding 'teaching meaning' and how i would convey (without translation or dictionary definition), the following
1) reliable
2) 'managed' to do (as in "she managed to pass the exam")
As i said, i would have thought techniques such as this are part of the course (i might be wrong), and I'm happy with all other aspects of my application form....Just this
I really am not asking for you to take the whole test for me, but would appreciate some thoughts on this even if you just point me in the right direcion
many thanks
