Being a 21st Century English Teacher

Abstract

The main objective in this article is to inform any teacher of the needs, skills and abilities that can help students and teachers to develop depending on each class and study group in charge. Through this article, it will demonstrate how the techniques and tools applicable in the classes can be adapted to the current situation of the year 2020; whether they are developed virtually or when we return to the physical classrooms. The questions to be developed are shown next to the problem. Questions that; must be answered to have a clearer idea of what we want to demonstrate in the process of teaching and learning English and its techniques, teacher's roles and how to incorporate these tools and techniques in the classes of English as a foreign language; to make this an optimal experience for the English teachers and of course the students who make set goals to obtain the best results at the end of each cycle. Without forgetting that this article aims to inform all those who are teachers and those who are looking to develop new ways of carrying out higher education that in this 21st century technology is present in all our environments. We must continue to change and innovate techniques and tools without forgetting, of course, the use mainly of information and communication technologies that are increasingly used in the teaching and learning process to develop in university students a second language that helps them to seek more and better horizons.
