1. This is a suggested teaching schedule. The trainer will determine the time allotted to each
part of the chapter depending on trainees' needs and responses. However, the trainer is
expected to begin the new chapter on the indicated day.

2. For trainees’ easy reference, make sure they use the Help Index (at the beginning of the
book) corresponding to the material covered this month.

3. As much as time permits, when a new topic is introduced, make sure you activate your
trainees’ schema by having them think back on their experiences as students. Much of
the students’ view of what a teacher is and what a teacher should do can often be traced
back to the many years of lesson observation they had from their student’s seat.

4. Please assign homework as needed (web search, on-line progress quizzes, etc.)

5. Please assign ahead of time the teaching points (pronunciation, grammar, listening, etc.) for
trainees to prepare and give their demo class depending on the aims of the course being
taught.

* If you consider it appropriate, you may alternate Chapter 4 with the short demo classes.
