Few things can be more disheartening than students’ errors and mistakes. Yet despite our best efforts as teachers and the most diligent efforts of our students, learning English seems to be characterized by error. What causes these errors, how can they be classified, and exactly what attitude(s) we should adopt towards them?
These are the key questions this session will explore before going on to consider when, how and, indeed, if we should correct errors.
