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! =)
