Listening Lesson Plan.

Abstract

In recent years, the teaching of English as a second or foreign language has gained tremendous momentum worldwide. "The Influence of Cultural Context on English Teaching: A Literature Review" aims to explore the nexus between culture and English language teaching (ELT), focusing on how cultural context influences ELT strategies and outcomes (Procel, 2023). The English language has become established as a fundamental tool for communication in academic, professional, and social contexts, which demands increasingly reflective, well-planned, and contextualized teaching processes. In this sense, the domain of English should be strengthened through organized teaching methods that maximize students’ cognitive capacities and promote autonomous learning (Coello, 2021). Within this framework, the present pedagogical portfolio is constructed as a coherent unit of writing that integrates planning, implementation, and teaching reflection through the design of lesson plans aimed at teaching English as a foreign language. This work is not conceived as an isolated compilation of activities, but rather as an articulated formative process that demonstrates the development of pedagogical and linguistic competencies at the level that has been taught. From this perspective, the work is grounded in methodological approaches such as FMU, ECRIF, and PDP, which guide lesson organization and allow for a balanced approach to grammar and the language skills of speaking, listening, reading, and writing. The selection of these approaches responds to the need to promote meaningful, contextualized, and student-centered learning, in which language use is presented as a real means of communication rather than merely a set of isolated structures.
