My First Class


Class experience

 This was the first class which I teach with my classmate will, at the beginning I felt really nervous, excited and anxious to teach grammar for children; and I think that my classmate and I did a good job. But I consider that we can improve some things that can help out to be better in order to teach an English class. The class started giving some instructions to the students in order to pay attention when the teacher explains the activities; I consider that giving instructions before the class will be more meaningful because the students would be focused on the topic.



Also, the class continues presenting the grammar “it is” and “they are” though a poster and flash card about animals.  Additionally, to practice the grammar structure, will and I look for activities that force children to use the grammar structure in an unconsciously form. To make short,  I like how Will introduce the grammar structure because they tend to play or do other things that don’t help them during the class, but in this case students paid attention to him.

 “When you want to teach children to think, you begin by treating them seriously when they are little, giving them responsibilities, talking to them candidly, providing privacy and solitude for them, and making them readers and thinkers of significant thoughts from the beginning. That’s if you want to teach them to think.”  Bertrand Russell


Interesting, must of the students do the excercise in correct form, and they demonstrate interest about the grammar topic. To continuo, we use stickers to motivate the children and I consider that this motivation help in order to push kids to work .To finish the class, in a class activity students make sentences using the grammar structure.
 “I never teach my pupils, I only attempt to provide the conditions in which they can learn.”  Albert Einstein



 What were the good things?

I tried to monitor and pay attention to all the students in every activity that I assigned to them. Additionally, the activities that the kids did were good because in the “production stage” students would be able to create by themselves a sentence using a picture that I gave them in order to make them speak and internalize the grammar.
 Also, I try to use basic vocabulary to explain and give instruction. Finally, the materials were appropriated because of the size and colors; so materials helps students to recognize, remember and internalize the grammar topic in a better way.



What could be improved?

Something that I can improve is the way how making children to speak and practice the topic that I tough because some kids feel nervous when I force them to give me their examples. Moreover, after my experience I realized that use stickers in every activity to motivate your students help a lot but take time that teacher can use to other activity which help students to understand better that class.



To finish my opinion, teachers learns new thing from others and also from the mistakes that we did in every class, we develop the capacitive to recognize activities that can have positive result in our students.
