What Do YouTeach, English or Kids? What Nunan saidtruly triggered me a lot. It is universally acknowledged that there are twoimportant and prevalent forms of class--teacher-centered and students-centered.In China, most of the classes are teacher-centered. Teachers spend a lot ofclass time speaking, while students are busy listening to their teachers ortaking notes, so that their thinking time is reduced or even ignored, which isnot good for their comprehensive development.

"You teachkids" means as a teacher we should have more time to think about thestudents and know more about their characteristics, knowledge level, interestsand so on. Thus, A students-centered class should be highly praised and widelyused by every qualified teacher instead of paying attention to the subject orteachers themselves, which are more advantageous than the former one. Firstly,the students are more likely to concentrate their minds and be enthusiastictowards class in which they can participate and interact more. Secondly, thestudents will be more active and willing to cooperate better with theirteacher, and the teacher can get the feed backs through their students' correspondingresponses and improve his teaching and choose the optimum teaching methodsaccordingly. Thirdly, autonomous learning and creative thinking abilities canbe cultivated. They can share or express their own opinions freely in theclass.

In a word, I firmlyagree with Nunan' s viewpoint that teachers should attach more importance tothe kids and the students-centered class needs to be encouraged.
