In this epsiode, Kelly dives into how to help those students that are struggling a bit in the language classroom and not making progress.

Topics introduced in the episode are:

• Diagnosing problem
  • Errors, slips, mistakes - state of mind of the student (pressures, etc.)
  • Interlanguage
• Coming up with a plan
  • Both Students and Teachers agreeing on a course of action
• Realistic goal setting
  • SMART goals (Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Relevant, and Time-Bound)
• Feedback and Self-efficacy
  • Self-efficacy refers to an individual's belief in his or her capacity to execute behaviors necessary to produce specific performance attainments
  • Leveraging your feedback to improve students' self-efficacy through five pillars
