Educational psychology: a need for future mexican english teachers at the University of Quintana Roo.
Abstract
The demand for professionally qualified English teachers in Mexico is constantly on the rise. However, it is not enough for Mexican English teachers tomaster the language and be trained in the techniques for teaching English as aforeign language; educators need to be prepared to tackle different constraints in classrooms, such like coping with different personalities, styles and ways oflearning. Most young EFL teachers do not obtain much knowledge from a formal instruction in how to manage English education in the different ELT programs in Mexico. Despite the fact that the English Language majar at the University of Quintana Roo trains future English teachers, it does not prepare them to face students' behaviour, frustrations, feelings and attitudes while learning a foreign language. Befare finishing my bachelor's degree I began to work as an English teacher at the Instituto Cumbres de Quintana Roo, a catholic private school.
