Collapse SubdiscussionTrần Quốc Khải I think clarification request and elicitation would work for my students because it helps my students acquire the second language naturally through noticing and self-correction activities.
I think metalinguistic information regarding errors wouldnot work for my students because it draws much students' attention to correct their errors instead of developing communicative competence naturally. More importantly, explicit correction would also demotivate them in self-monitoring their language learning process.

Collapse SubdiscussionTrần Thị Ngân Every teacher will have different views on this and different ways of correcting their students and it’s a case of finding out what both you and your students feel comfortable with.
I always remind students that if they are always making new mistakes it’s okay. New mistakes are usually a sign that they are exploring new uses of language or experimenting with new vocabulary but if they are always repeating the same mistakes it’s not such a good sign! By noting their mistakes students have a record of their progress and can avoid repeating the same mistakes time and time again. It’s a good idea to have a set space in their notebooks to write down their errors and the correct version.
Collapse SubdiscussionPhạm Thị Hiền I usually use both of them to check my students' errors. However, I think Metalinguistic clues,Elicitation and Repetition are the best way to help them understand their mistakes and they can correct it by themselve. In contrast, the rest of these That I also use with them, but they doesn't work much. As they don't point out and comprehend those mistakes
Collapse Subdiscussionthái thị phúc I think clarification request and elicitation
Collapse SubdiscussionNguyễn Thị Thương I often use explicit correction, recast, clarification request, elicitation and repetition for my students because they help students see that something was wrong and encourage the students to self-correct. Using clarification request, elicitation and repetition for good students, they can self-correct. But students are not good, I use explicit correction, recast.
I think metalinguistic clues doesn’t work for my students because my students are too young to understand grammar points.

Collapse SubdiscussionPhạm Văn Dũng 1. From my perspective, from my experiences. Recast or Clarification requests will help my students improve language target points and communication because my learners are primary students or beginners in English, whenever I fix their mistakes by saying "Sorry" or "Pardon" & giving them more opening questions, they will immediately know how to monitor their speeches and self-correct automatically. And I would love to apply 2 techniques in the long run.
2. I will hesitate to use Explicit Correction for some reason when correcting mistakes. Firstly, my students are primary students so they will feel embarrassed with their classmates. Since then they will lose their confidence and they will never want to present in front of the class. Besides, I want students to focus on fluency so that they can finish a conversation without disturbing them. At the end of the lesson, I will wrap up and say all these mistakes they made without saying the individual's name.

I have the same point of view as your ideas. I am a kindergarten and primary English teacher too. Would you mind sending me your contact to share more about your teaching experience? Thanks!
Collapse SubdiscussionPham Duc Minh I usually use:
Let Students talk/ do tasks.
Take note.
Explain, correct.
Collapse SubdiscussionNguyễn Thị Hồng Nhung Error correction techniques that would work for my students are elicitation, clarification request, and recast because These techniques help them be confident in communication without having a fear of making mistakes. Moreover, students will also have a chance to recognize their mistakes and improve their self-correction ability.
Error correction techniques that shouldn't often be used for my students can be Explicit correction. This technique interrupts students speaking flow and creates anger in the learning process.

Collapse SubdiscussionHo Thi Phuong I would choose error correction depend on students' level, age,... and remember don't go overboard when using types of error correction
Collapse SubdiscussionĐặng Thị Thanh Dung In my class, I usually use Metalinguistic clues to correct my students' mistakes because it is easy for my students to understand and improve their self-corection ability. I sometimes correct students immediately but it makes students lose their confidence, so it is not a good way all the time.
Collapse SubdiscussionLê Thị Mỹ Linh - What error correction techniques would work for your students? Why? I think recast and elicitation would work for my students because it helps students recognize their mistakes without embarrassment, then they could recognize their mistakes and correct by themselves.
- What error corrections wouldn't work for your students? Why do you say so? I think Explicit correction and Metalinguistic clues wouldn't work for my students because they directly point student's mistakes and make them feel afraid of making mistake and shy to speak or talk next time
