Task 6

THE LANGUAGE OF FEEDBACK TO ERROR 

         Learners are supposed to answer the questions and look up to the word they do not know before coming to the classroom. So errors are rare. Teacher always use immediate correction. She gives the answer directly. This is sometimes demotivating for them. Feedback has highly important role on student’s motivation. Teacher do not use constructive feedback ways.
