TECHNIQUES

Repetition drill

This drill is often used to teach the lines of the dialogue. Students are asked to repeat the teacher’s model as accurately and as quickly as possible.

Substitution drill

The students repeat the line from the dialogue which the teacher has given them, substituting the cue into the line in its proper place.

Question-and-answer drill

The drill gives students practice with answering questions. The students should answer the teacher’s question very quickly. It is also possible for the teacher to cue the students to ask questions as well.

Expansion drill

This drill helps students to produce longer sentence bit by bit, gradually achieving fluency. The main structure is repeated first, then students have to put cue phrase in its proper place.

Clause combination drill

Students learn to combine two simple sentences into a complex one.

Background build-up drill

This drill is used when a long line of dialogue is giving students trouble. The teacher breaks down the line into several parts. The students repeat a part of the sentence, usually the last phrase of the line.

Chain drill

A chain drill gets its name from the chain of conversation that forms around the classroom as students, one-by-one, ask and answer questions of each other. The teacher begins the chain by greeting a particular student, or asking him a question. That student responds, and then turns to the student sitting next to him.

PRINCIPLES

1)Drills are used to teach structural patterns. 2)Set phrases are memorised with a focus on intonation. 3)Grammatical explanations are kept to a minimum. 4)Vocabulary is taught in context. 5)Audio-visual aids are used. 6)Focus is on pronunciation. 7)Correct responses are positively reinforced immediately.
