First Class

In the first three minutes of my class, I saw that the students were interested in the lesson, and I noticed that they liked the warm up activity. I also heard that they had a very good English level which permitted a good rapport. The students did everything that I asked them to do. I noticed that they wanted to learn from me because when I started with the first activity, they paid attention, and they started to work as soon as I stopped giving directions. Moreover, they were very respectful. While I was in my class the teacher sat in a corner of the classroom, and he was taking notes and paying attention to my class.

Because students’ mood to learn, the environment was relax, and there was noise only when students were speaking. Also, the students had good conversations between them, and they helped each other.

I think the arrangement helped the environment. I decided to use the u style, and definitely, it helped to the share. The materials that I used were the teacher’s book, markers, pages, and the board; I used them during the whole class.

I think that the use of the u style in the class helped when they did a reading activity, and then, they shared the others about it.

Sitting arrangement and good communication between the students are important points because students can practice the language and lose fair of speaking. Another important point is to bring a variety of activities; this helps students’ learning to develop the four macro skills.

Based on what I already know about the rapport, I think this helped me to try to relax during the class and develop my class with confidence. Based on what I observed, I think students generally come late to the class, which hinder their learning.

In the future classes, I will try to bring more visual materials. Likewise, in the future class, I will develop more listening activities. The next time I teach this lesson, I will have more practice on pronunciation because I had problems with three words at the moment to teach them the pronunciation. It was really embarrassed, but I know that I will not forget the pronunciation of those words. Finally, in future experiences, I will also include some listening activities.
