3rd Learning experience

Hi people!!, finally I did it!, I finished my three first teaching expierences, and let me tell you that I feel proud of myself because I've done a great job, especially in my last class of period number one.

Things went well, even though students started to feel comfortable for the reason that practitioners were starting their class, I mean they were coming late and were behaving  with a careless mood, but that was not the purpose of my intentions. Let me tell you people that I threw away those thoughts and I started my class with an straight mood.

I made a PDP Framework about Simple present and Past continouos progressive. At this moment they already knew what I was teaching about, and thank God they understood, and with a PDP framework things got easier, in addition that is a great techique to teach a lot of topics, by the way, mine was based on a reading, and things worked out well.

Finally, I can say that I feel happy and the most important thing is that I earned confidence in order to teach more levels next time, hope you mates feel the same!, Blessings!!

2nd Class Teaching Experience

Hi guys and teacher!! hope you're doing good!, let me tell you that I just taught my 2nd class of the Intermediate English II group. It was kind of complicated because again I got that sensation of feeling nervous again!.

I taught "Superlatives", a very important topic in terms of comunication, and a great chance to learn more about it by myself too. I did a great job I think, but I must admit I hesitated because I proscatinated hehe!. I only had a few hours to prepare my class, and I accept it was my fault.

Anyway, I felt comfortable, and I could notice the guys understood very well, and they participated in the activities as always. I must admit that time is the worst enemy of teachers!, and know I understand how it feels for them, I mean, it is a great and a responsibility guys!, and I hope you agree with me!.

In conclusion, teaching is not just standing there in front of a group of people, and speak as if you know it all; teaching involves more things, one of them is responsiblity, hope you guys take it as an advice!. BLESSINGS!!!

My 1st teaching experience

Hello mates!! well, to be honest I had a lot of fun in my very first teaching experience, and the students colaborated in all the activities I told them to perform. Since the very beginning until the end of the lesson, they were participating in each task I gave them. 

I must admit that every teacher has a reason to say that teaching is a great feeling because I was proud of myself when they were speaking in the foreing language, I felt I was in another country!!. Every time a see a movie or a picture of a teacher, I convince myself that I was not wrong when I decided to choose this major.

I felt nervous when I started the lesson because teacher Cristian was the tutor who evaluated my task, but I rapidly threw away that feeling, and I started to show what I'm made of!!.

Hope you guys have the oportunity to teach Intermediate II class!, they're very enthusiastic!!

Blessings!!
