Why is technology necessary for teaching English?

I've learned about teaching English with technology in this class. I already know how it is useful to use technology for teaching English. For being great a techer, nowadays I should know how to teach English with technology in class. It's not choice, but it's essential. I want to be good at technology to teach English with it more efficiently.

I've learned internet-based project work. I know what it is, but I'm not familiar with it. It's difficult for me to use it. Whenever I take classes in the beginning of the semester, if there is presentation evaluations which I make it with computer in a class, I had not taken it because I had never used it. In order to overcome it, I take a computer lecture in this semester and l'm learning. The more I learn it, the more I'm interested in it and feel how it is useful and easy. I want to learn how to associate Internet with teaching English in this class.

My strength is understanding learners' mind. I really know that how English learners who are at low than other students feel when they learn because of they are like me. I want to teach students who do not know English almost, but they are highschool students and want to learn.

My weakness is my English pronunciation and that I have low confidence to use English. My pronunciation is so bad. Everyone say me, " Your pronunciation is so bad so you try to make effort to be good at it. therefore I have low confidence when I stand in front of people for presentation. I will overcome it through technology. In other wise, I get the lots of audio files and try to listen a lot and repeat what they speak.

Actually, I'm afraid of this class because I'm technophobe and I'm not good at English. Although this class is difficult for me to understand, if I make lots of effort, it comes to fruition to me.
