First Teaching Practicum

FIRST TEACHING CLASS!

Hello everybody, today I will tell you about the experience that I have had in my first teaching class. at the beginning I felt a little bit nervous, but then everything went well.

I consider that to be the first practice we were not bad, I feel that we develop the class in a good way. I felt very good to see that children were happy and motivated to learn. A totally different environment live with them. I should mention that always in activities that we develop there are good and bad aspects to be taken into account to improve such as failures. I will let you know some of the aspects that I have to improved.

ASPECTS THAT I HAVE TO IMPROVED

1. Shhh: I make this sound when children were making a lot of noice. I know that I don't have to make the sound to get their attention. Solution: Something that maybe can work with kids is just to be quiet, in that way they will understand that teacher is waiting for them to be silent and pay attencion to the class. 

2. Write examples: I make one activity in which kids have to speak with their classmates, but it was hard for them to understand what I was saying. for example they were using " I like..." but it was hard because they didn't understand the structure. 

Solution: I should write or explain the structure of the sentence that I will use, in the way children will get the idea and is not going to be hard for them to follow the instructions.

3. Attention to the needs kids have: in the middle of the class one student was bothering another one. The kid told me what was happening, but I didn't do anything in the situation. Maybe because I didn't know how to tell him in English. 

Solution: we have to be very patient with kids and we must pay attention in the needs they have because if don't do it, They are going to feel that we don't care about their problems. So we have to go and check what is happening.

These are some of the aspects that I have to improved when teaching a class. It is important to have feedback because in the way we can make the things different and we can find different ways to solve some situations that happen in the classroom. I know that I have to taken into account the different aspects that teacher or classmates tell me to be better and is not good to take the opinion of other person in a wrong way. I know that we are human and we make mistakes, but in the way we can observe and analice the things that we are making wrong. I'm not saying that everything is going to be perfect, but at least we can solve some things and we have the opportunity to improved it.
