My english language portfolio for my classes

 I consider that this projects is completely useful to work with students since it has been designed and elaborated thinking about the needs of each student. However, the application of this method can vary according to the background of each learner.

  On the one hand, having a previous information about the level of the class in which you are going to develop this project it helps you to elaborate a proper English Language Portfolio.

Besides, joining the students in different groups regardless the background of each student so as to get the most information of each one. Any idea can always be good for their project.

Another advantage is that this method gets better the autonomy of each one at the same time they work in groups not always depending on their teacher.

I consider that one of them main advantage is that having worked this portfolio this portfolio really well they will be able to use it as a tool of learning when they need.

  On the other hand, we must consider that not all the students have the same background and their needs are really different, if you create a ELP in general depending on the level of each learner they will need more or less time to adapt it. Indeed, if they have more problems to work with it, they will need more teachers help as a teacher, we must always take into account this factor. For that reason, we must have a lot of information about each student which will help us to get better their evolution.

For me, the main disadvantage will be how to evaluate each student their participation and progress in this project.

If they do not finish their tasks at school, they will have to finish at home and evidently is a disadvantage because you do not really know if they have made an effort and have do the task themselves or this has been done by another person. Related to this, it is also difficult to know if they have worked the same amount of time since most of the time not all of them work equally.

  To sum up, I consider that ELP is a really interesting project to do during my sessions with my learners because it can be very positive in their learning. I am aware of the difficulty of this task so I will have to do it well before.
