Why receptive and then productive? The receptive skills are listening and reading, because learners do not need to produce language to do these, they receive and understand it. These skills are sometimes known as passive skills. They can be contrasted with the productive or active skills of speaking and writing.

Evaluating my own lessons- Some questions to ask yourself after a lesson Did I achieve my aims? If not, why? Was my lesson different from how I imagined it in any way? How and why? How did I move from one stage to another? Did I keep to my timing? If not, why? Were the students active and involved in the lesson? Why(not)? Were there any problems? Why? How can I solve them? What would I do differently next time? Why? What did I do better this time?
