8. Why is it important to use authentic subtitled material in the classroom?
I believe that it is important to use authentic subtitled material when we work with
beginners, many times the teachers teach the classes and the students do not dare to use
a dictionary when they do not understand a word, they probably do not know how to use it
or on many occasions they have fear and by using subtitled material they have the idea of
what is studied in class and understand a little more.

but also we follow the basic structure of the genre. In this step we are not going to have
success but do not worry it is part of the process.
3- Revision: In this step we add details, and clarify then we can rewrite unclear sentences
or paragraphs. Also, we cut any words, sentences or paragraphs that are off-topic, or
unnecessary.
A portfolio is a good idea when we want to collect records that reflect our accomplishments, skills.
Some advantages are:
Teacher has to persuade them and thus they can feel excited about the activity.
The teacher can assign a task in which the student has to watch a video and at the end he has to
write a short paragraph about what he understood.

It is preparation because we learn about a topic before discussing it and it is a good idea to make
small groups where we can all contribute ideas at the end we will understand the topic in a better
way.
