Reflection
Think about the advantages and disadvantages of using the model of pre-, while- and
post-listening activities to teach a listening lesson. Write first from the perspective of
the teacher and then from the perspective of the learners.
The benefits of using the model it helps students to understand the lesson, to
organize the lesson, it helps students to follow the lesson, but the
disadvantage of using the model it makes students feel bored.
