    Relationship building as a strategy on adolescent students’ behavior in an EFL classroom
    (Universidad de Cuenca, 2021-10-29) Tapia Llivicura, Rosa Liliana; Fajardo Dack, Tammy Mercedes
    This research explores the effects of the relationship-building strategy on adolescent students’ behavior in an EFL classroom. Furthermore, it answers the questions regarding the reported factors that favor positive teacher-students’ relationships and the barriers that prevented them. This exploratory bibliographic research of 16 empirical studies examined the strategy with adolescent students and teachers in different EFL contexts. The results of this analysis revealed that the effects of the relationship-building strategy on adolescent students’ behavior were all positive. Furthermore, it was found that only factors related to the actions, attitudes, and decisions of teachers in the classroom facilitate the development of positive relationships. Similarly, the findings showed that all the reported barriers depended on the teacher; in fact, the lack or the contradiction to the reported factors are considered barriers. Recommendations for future research on relationship building strategy and some practical implications are provided

    Use of the total physical response method as an efl teaching tool to improve the listening comprehension skill of tenth graders
    (2016) Aucapiña Sanunga, Johnny Geovanny; Orellana Plaza, Marcia Andrea; Youman Henley, Thomas Elden
    This monograph proposes to teach the English language using the Total Physical Response (TPR) method as a tool to enhance the listening comprehension skill of Tenth Graders at Unidad Educativa Latinoamericano. The study analyzes the cognitive procedure in the listening ability in order to know in which way the input is processed in the mind of the listener. As well, it reviews factors that make listening comprehension more efficient in young learners. It also studies bibliographic information about common behaviors that most adolescents show during this stage, which is supported by the application of qualitative and quantitative techniques carried out in this research. Additionally, it evaluates the features, advantages, operation of the TPR method, allowing both authors of this study to determine that this method would help teenage students improve their listening comprehension, increase their self-confidence and motivation in class. Finally, this study proposes several TPR lessons in order to suggest teachers how these could be implemented in class with teenage students.
