1rst entry!!

Hello friends!!



This is my first entry for the 3rd period, I’m glad because I almost finish teaching and thanks God the experience is not so bad, I have enjoyed many classes. In this opportunity, I’m teaching basic, I have 28 students and 5 of them didn’t go to my class. I was nervous because it was my first class with that group, and I didn’t know anything about the students and I wanted to hear my teacher’s expectations about my class. Because I was so nervous, I didn’t show too much enthusiasm and that affect my class because my students were distracted even though they are not active students as the ones I had in my previous group. Talking about the methodology, I think I did a good job because in the warm-up and I think some of them enjoyed it, but others not because they got late into the classroom. I had to explain the grammar notes, and I tried to do it in a new form, and I think they didn’t notice that I was explaining the grammar notes.


For next class, I should be more prepared and also I should be more enthusiastic for my students to enjoy my class, so do I because in that way they learn more.

Technology of the Future!!

How far will we get???
Technology is an absolute need we cannot escape from. Let's just say, it has a very big role in most aspects of our lives. In other words, it answers most of Mankind problems. Across centuries technology evolves. The importance of technology is aiming for comfort of use in whichever form it is. It always directs for easiness in life. Technology has inspired scientists to make improvements from time to time through their invented tools and devices for us to use, just to make our lives easier. We always tend to make one step ahead. Technology can help not just with the present but also approximating the future. That's why I want you to watch the next video.... =)

Teaching!!


Hello friends!!



Today, I want to share my experience in my last class of the second period. Let me tell you that this was a wonderful experience; I dare to say that this was the best class that I have taught because I felt really connected with my students and all of them were working more than what I expected. Since they warm-up I made, students were having fun at the same time that they were practicing the simple past; it was a free activity because they had to say their own stories, so they put in practice what they have learned. The next activity was controlled, and at the beginning I thought they were not going to do it, but they did it very well and with a good attitude. To tell truth, it was a funny class for all the activities I made, and I was happy because they were active. Before starting the class, I felt very badly because I was sick, and I was thinking that I had to give my best because I couldn’t be with that attitude in the class. Thanks God, everything was nice, and I achieved my goal for that class. On the other hand, I don’t know my feedback about the class, so I don’t know if my tutor liked my class. But the most important is that I felt good, and I really liked that experienced, and that kind of experience is what motivates me to go ahead.

Thank you friends for supporting me, it has helped me a lot!!!
