Hi again Janine
Refugees are a complex subject matter and approaches may vary according to their social surroundings or their mental status. Learning is a robust activity that can take place anywhere and at anytime but it is reflective on practice and motivation techniques and ranks best within this area according to resources in place. To be more precise and less theoretical, a refugee's attitude to learning can be well acclaimed if they are in a relaxed environment that is suitable according to language, acceptance of societal change or attitude, anything that makes the person in that situation forget their woes and concentrate.
Learners with ESOL needs or 2nd language acquisitions tend to be very sound within their own language and easy to manage change once they follow a path that is structured and clear. Although literacy is my main discipline, English for Speakers of Other Languages is quite fresh to the learner and new language is always very interesting if taught in the manner of interest. In the UK where there are high levels of second language users, you tend to find them easier to teach once they follow a certain directive and have adapted well into that system or structure. They tend to adapt fully and learn in a greater degree of acquisition better than the learner with English as their first language - they get bored easily learning the extremities of the English language (grammar, punctuation, speaking and listening activities etc.) whilst the former who considers it as a must, is determined to succeed and will take it first hand.
With this in mind, I believe that both refugees and ESOL learners especially can conform to society if society breeds them in a way that is accepted by them and if they are given the opportunity to breath and relax, and enjoy their surrounding. They will achieve higher heights and make learning a purpose and an enjoyment, willingly and satisfactorily.
I hope this helps - I could ramble on but I have to get on with work now. Good luck and take care. Keep in touch if you need me to dig up some resources that I have put together for my learners over the years - feel free.
Hello Cecilia. Thank you so much for the time that you took to reply however, I apologise that module three is completed now and I achieved a great mark. I would like to thank you all very much as I progress into module four and I hope that I can return the favour as kindly as you have all helped me.
Kind regards and I am sure that I will be in touch in my future modules.
