This was my last class in this group, and today`s class was pretty comfortable and really nice, not only for me,but also for my students. Several thing worked well today. Since the beginning of the class I told them that we were going to work in pairs in all the activities,but they had to change the partner. they enjoyed these activities because they were sharing and playing with other classmates. I don`t think that something did not work well today. We were having fun with these activities because we were in the Free Practice, so this was the part in which students spoke more English. I think that I reach my objective, and not only today`s objective, but the objective of the whole to

As I said before we worked in pairs the whole class, but changing partners. I didn`t say good bye, because I forgot it, but I said good bye to my tutor at the end. At the beginning of this period I felt kind of worried because this was the highest level, but now I feel satisfied with my work.
Cory,
ResponderEliminarI hope you had a great time with this group. I can see that you really enjoyed working with these students. I think that you had a conection with your students, and that is something very important when you are a teacher. You have to provide a nice environment for the students to feel comfortable and participate in the activities.
It is important to have the students work with different classmates, so they have the chance, as you mention, to share and comment with the rest of the class. It is very tyupical that students always wnat to work with the same person everytime the teacher asks them to work in pairs, but what you did gave them the chance to interact with more classmates.

I am happy to know that you are satisfied with the work you did in Advanced English. I think that when you say that you are satisfied with the work you do is because you know that you did your best and that you worked hard. All these experiences have helped us a lot and I consider that next experiences will be better because we are going to try to consider our tutors' observations and in this way we are going to avoid making the same mistakes again. : )I know you did a great job. Congrats!!

ResponderEliminarHi teacher Cory!!
Congratulations because you took the challenge of working with advanced students. I think that is was a nice technique to ask the students to change partner for the activities because students like to work just with their group of friends, but what about the other students?
Nice job Cory...I hope to have your luck in my next group!
and I hope you have a good group, too!
I know that right now you are thanking God because your challenge already finished!
