Over the past 20 years, there has been a dramatic increase in the popularity of foreign language learning. As a result, some people believe that language teachers should focus on encouraging their students and emphasizing their successes rather than pointing out their mistakes. In my opinion, although I believe that when people receive positive attitudes, they feel positive and more determined to continue the work, I do not completely agree with this position, since in some cases, knowing and solving your own mistakes can be useful in a pupil’s progress.
First of all, it is undeniable that humans are often sensitive to the opinions of others, particularly those they view as experts in the field, such as their teachers. When students receive positive feedback from authority figures, they tend to feel more confident in their abilities, which is essential for language development. This confidence may lead them to speak more freely and improve more quickly. Meanwhile, when tutors too often concentrate on bad work, it can potentially lead to losing motivation and a fear of frustration. What would be extremely naughty for speaking fluency.
On the other hand, learners often struggle to identify their own mistakes during the learning process. Consequently, if teachers mostly concentrate only on good moments, it can become a problem with full knowledge of language. For instance, someone may excel in grammar, but struggle with pronunciation. If their instructor does not address this speaking issue, the learner may find it challenging to communicate effectively with native speakers, even if they can read and write fluently in the language.
In conclusion, despite the fact that encouraging from teachers may have a positive impact on students motivation, pedagogues still should give enough consideration to students bad performances.
