INSTRUCTION FOR ENGLISH TEACHING
PROFESSOR IRIS B. QUINTERO Q. PhD.
STRUGGLING STUDENTS
For struggling students, the instruction may need to be adapted in particular ways to help the learner overcome specific reading, writing, and learning difficulties.
Principles for effectively supporting struggling readers and writers include:
- directly targeting specific literacy difficulties while giving explicit instruction in
reading and writing;
- providing more intense instruction, more explicit instruction, and even more opportunities to practice than for other learners;
- offering enhanced support to help learners generalize and transfer their new literacy skills;
- addressing struggling learners’ attributions, beliefs, and motivational profiles—in other words, whether they explain their successes and failures to themselves in ways that foster motivation and continued engagement or decrease motivation and engagement;
- providing instruction that is individualized, with materials that are at the right level of challenge and with appropriate feedback provided while learning.
Instruction for English Language Learners
- the largest subgroup of adults enrolled in adult education programs
- Some English learners—for example, those living in neighborhoods with concentrations of non-English-speaking residents—may be challenged by the lack of opportunities to use and be exposed to.
- All the principles of effective reading and writing instruction discussed previously in this book, apply to English language learners as well.
- Learning a second language as an adult can be difficult, and it differs from language learning at younger ages in two important ways:
a. It usually is learned through explicit instruction more than through implicit learning; b. instruction is usually tied more closely to reading.
English language Learners
Experiences in second-language instruction with young language learners, high school
students, and college students suggest several principles, so it may be effective with adult language learners too.

What is top down and bottom up in reading?
Top -down and bottom up in reading
Learners can be encouraged to use both bottom-up and top-down strategies to help them understand a text. For example in a reading comprehension learners use their knowledge of the genre to predict what will be in the text (top down), and their understanding of affixation to guess meaning (bottom up).

TOP -DOWN IN READING
One way to do this is to spend some time on the top down approach to reading. Top down reading means taking prior knowledge into account when encountering a new text, so that a student's active schema related to a particular topic or theme helps them incorporate what they learn from their reading.
BOTTOM -UP PROCESSING IN READING
BOTTOM-UP IN READING
BOTTOM-UP IN READING
A bottom-up reading model is a reading model that emphasizes the written or printed text, it says that reading is driven by a process that results in meaning (or, in other words, reading is driven by text) and that reading proceeds from part to whole.

Top -down and bottom up in reading
Learners can be encouraged to use both bottom-up and top-down strategies to help them understand a text. For example in a reading comprehension learners use their knowledge of the genre to predict what will be in the text (top down), and their understanding of affixation to guess meaning (bottom up).
