SMALL GROUP LANGUAGE TEACHING AT TERTIARY LEVEL

Summary/Abstract: One of the benefits of the post-method tertiary education is working in small groups. There are plenty of benefits of teaching in small groups since the main focus is put on the needs of the students, while the main objective is their academic skills growth. Teaching language and literature in small groups at tertiary level creates an interactive and engaging learning environment. It promotes critical thinking, active learning, collaboration and cultural exchange, while providing students with individual attention and support. This approach enhances students’ understanding and appreciation of language and literature while fostering the development of various skills that are valuable beyond the academic setting. It also leads to quality enhancement of the teaching process, proven by the students' feedback, and by their higher knowledge shown at mid-term and final exams. This study aims to analyze the process of teaching language and literature in small groups of students majoring English at the Faculty of Education – Bitola, considering their skills, designing achievable learning outcomes, and using various ICT tools to fulfill the individual students’ needs. The research uses the qualitative paradigm and descriptive method (primarily reflection). The theory is combined with the reinforcement from the practical teaching experience.
