My last entry!!! =)

This is my last entry for the teaching practicum!! Let me tell you that though I had many difficulties in adapting me in this new world of teaching, I have had wonderful experiences facing the reality of my major. It’s great to help someone when you can do it because you feel the satisfaction that you have done a good job. The last class that I taught was very nice, and I happy because I could finish my practice with a good experience in my last group. The activities were done as I expected and the students were very enthusiastic, I think that reflects my job due to I was trying to do my best in that class. In this class, I tried to use a variety of activities in order to have fun during the class, and of course that happen during teaching, students were enjoying it. Something that I have to keep in mind is that for future teaching practicum I have to be more prepared with the lesson plans I have to work with and to manage all the activities and vocabulary it has. During this class, I had to teach an easy tense that was present progressive but with long vocabulary related with cloth. This was a practice of teaching, but also I could practice my English and improve my skills. This group of students was really kind, even one student sang for me in this class; it was so cute because I never expected him to do it, and everybody was happy clapping and moving their hands!!! I will never forget my first teaching practicum in this semester much less this last class….



Thank you for letting me sharing my ideas and thought with you, friends, you’re an important part of my learning teaching process!!!

3rd entry!!

Hello friends!!

Let me tell you that this class was very nice for me because since the beginning students were enjoying the warm-up and the activities they were doing. The first day of class, I thought this group was shy and they didn’t like to participate a lot, but today, I noticed that they enjoyed working together and making bodily-kinesthetic activities, so I took advantage of that. Thanks God, today, I didn’t teach grammar so I had the opportunity to make free activities for them to practice the prepositions of place. I liked the last activity I did because I make groups in which each one had to make a drawing emphasizing the prepositions of place, and students were exciting drawing some items in the paper I provided. Then, they had to explain in front of the class the drawings they made and the rest of the students were paying attention to the drawings and the sentences they said. When my class was over everybody was happy and me too…. hehe.... I feel good because I had less mistakes and I enjoyed teaching today, I think that is the most important.  =)

2nd entry!!

This class was better than the first one because I felt better when teaching and also because my students had a better attitude.... I think they could understand when I was trying to explain the activities, but I have to take into account that they are students for basic level, and I have to give less explanation because they get loss easily hehe, and I didn't care about that in this class, but for the next one I will. I enjoyed with the students during the activities because when students understand me and have fun and I do too, and I think that is a good step for me as a future teacher. I know I have to learn much more, but I'm trying to do my best and something that I will keep in mind is that I have to sleep well the previous day before teaching because that is going to help me to have a better attitude toward the class and my students too.... I had to teach grammar again, but in this time I had a better day, and students could understand me because when I asked them, they answered me in a correct form. For me, the hard part of teaching is making the lesson plan and when students ask me new words that I don't know hehe but I'm learning and I don't have to give up easily.... Thanks classmates for your support!!! =)

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!!!



Teaching!!!

Hello friends!!

I’m here again in order to tell you about my class. This was my third class and I planned to video-tape it. I started a little bit late but it was because of the teacher because he was late and I had to wait for him. I started with the warm-up and I had a little hard time when explaining because they didn’t get the idea, but later when I performed it, they could understand. Then, I started the other activities and all of them were a review of the last unit, so I had to make free practice. In one moment of the class, I felt kind of bored because I was just monitoring the students, and I felt that I was not doing anything! But I think I have to let students work by themselves. I was not nervous, but I was kind of tired because I didn’t sleep well the previous night. I have to consider that factor for the next class hehehe. I have planned many activities, but I didn’t finish them, so I gave the material to the teacher for him to use it. I think I did a good job, but I’m not sure because I haven’t heard about the teacher’s feedback, and also because I felt kind of bored during the class, but I think that can be because of the free practice, but anyway, I already finish the class, and I think it was acceptable!! =)
