Radio-Drama

Radio drama is one of the most interesting tools to teach English. In my personal opinion, these kinds of activities let students not only practice speaking and pronunciation, but also reading and listening. Moreover, the fact that students participate actively during the lessons promotes the idea of using radio drama nowadays inside of our classrooms. Students are more demanding; they have most of the time access to the information. Therefore, we as teachers should demonstrate with our lessons the importance of being taught by someone who knows deeply the subject matter, and have the effective elements to transmit that knowledge to other people.

Finally, I have to congratulate Pia because her topic was absolutely relevant and interesting for all of us. Furthermore, she performed a micro teaching, every stage was clearly covered, and the practice was very effective and entertaining. However, she seemed to be extremely nervous, which sometimes affected her pronunciation. From my personal point of view, in order to communicate the message properly she must control her stress better. That is the little detail she need to improve, but it is normal and completely comprehensive; congratulations Pia.
