Teaching English as a Foreign Language Application Process.

Abstract

This document addresses the implementation of methodologies specific to teaching English as a foreign language (TEFL), with the aim of promoting balanced development of the four language skills: speaking, listening, reading, and writing. Three key teaching approaches are examined. The ECRIF model (Encounter, Clarify, Remember, Internalize, Fluently Use), focused on the progressive improvement of oral production. The PDP (Pre, During, Post) model, used to strengthen both listening and reading comprehension. And the PDREE (Preparation, Drafting, Revising, Editing, Extension) model, aimed at developing writing skills. Through the analysis and application of these approaches, it is evident how each one contributes to meaningful, student-centered learning that is adaptable to different educational contexts. Finally, a proposal for the practical integration of these models in the classroom is presented, with the aim of achieving a more dynamic, reflective, and contextualized teaching-learning process.
