Abstract:
The starting point of this research is chapter 2.3. "Models for lesson planning" from the volume Deutsch Lehren Lernen 6 (Ende K., Grotjahn R., Kleppin K., Mohr I., 2013). In this section it is a description of the teaching process, which Jeremy Harmer (2007) called the "boomerang model". Because I noticed the German language learners have difficulty
in understanding and in acquiring language structures and grammatical rules, and because they were inhibited to express themselves in a foreign language and made many grammatical mistakes, I introduced this method in the course. According to this model, the teacher motivates the students in the initial phase; it arouses interest and establishes a task, such as the correct application of prepositions (where? / wo and wohin in German). The advantage of this method is the development of autonomy in the learning process, and the discovery of the grammatical rules, of the linguistic means, necessary for the accomplishment of the work tasks which is coming naturally.
