¿HOW TO STIMULATE AND OPTIMIZE THE TEACHING AND THE LEARNING OF SPANISH AS A FOREIGN LANGUAGE IN SECONDARY SCHOOL STARTING FROM THE TEACHER HIMSELF?

Abstract

The low efficiency observed in the educational milieu is not only the responsibility of some inoperative educative systems; of the resignation of parents to follow up their children; of the lack or poor infrastructures in some countries; the socio politics, sociocultural and socioeconomic realities; the laziness or weakness of learners; etc. There are reasons inherent in the activity of the teacher and which does not permit to optimize the performance. In this study we'll slow down on the teacher whose responsibility in the process of teaching / Learning is undeniable. We interrogate in the first place his training which globally becomes weak and voluntary, and at times the consequence of social and economical circumstances. In the second place we interrogate the exploitation of knowledge. We are alluding to the teaching of E/LE through music, songs, tales, clothes, gastronomy etc. It is a matter not only of transmission of cultural items, but also other didactic mechanisms of motivation which help indubitably to ameliorate the output of the teachers as well as that of the learners of Spanish as a Foreign Language. Consequently, we are thinking that the well training of a teacher reveals the grade of education that the learners can receive and the failure in the function of the first leads to the failure of the last one.
