Progress Analysis of Peer Teaching Assistant System

Abstract

How would an English teacher confronts the situation when students, particularly those whose majors are not necessarily English literature, claim being having difficult time in learning the contents in the English language classrooms during the semester? The possible feedbacks are often being "uninterested in the materials”, "clueless about the lectures”, and "totally or partially unprepared for the course.” This study proposed the Peer Teaching Assistant (PTA) System to confront the situation in the nowadays classrooms. The collected data was explored by the techniques of linear and quadratic regressions. Not only the PTA system motivated students in the classroom, but also it harmonized the gaps among students. The PTA system lowered down the cost for instruction with classroom management skills.
