one of three..... =)


Hello people… here I am again…! Well, let me tell you that I taught on Thursday (finally). I’m teaching in Technical English. I arrived early, and I prepared the warm up which consisted on writing some hidden words between others. When the students arrived, and also the teacher, I introduced myself to them, and I told them that I’ll be their teacher in this period. After my greetings, I asked the students to stand up and make two rows. I told them that on the board were some hidden words. Those words were related with the house features and that stuff. I gave a marker to the first person of each row and I said a word that was on the board, and as soon I said the word, they had to look for it and circle it. I think they had a good time in the game because they were running, laughing, and happy.
After that, I had to teach a new topic which was “there is and there are.” I explained the usage in the affirmative, negative and interrogative form. I tried to explain it in a simple way so the students understood better and in an easy way. Thanks God they understood and they got the idea and the usage of there is and there are when talking about features of the house.
Then, I gave some copies with some exercises that the students had to do in order to apply what I explained. I checked what they were doing, I was answering their questions and doubts, and after that, we checked the exercises together. To be the first class I taught in this period, I got a good score. Also, I have to tell you that I recorded my class, so I already have my video. =)
In the feedback, the teacher gave me some pieces of advice about some students that do the exercises very fast. She said that she liked my class and that I did well! =)
