My first class with Intermediate I

I thought I had lost track because a large period of vacations has slowed down I little my teaching techniques; however, when the teaching time came, I felt ready to do it again. Something I have notice is that all of the practice we have been through has already shaped our lives. We are grown teachers that are eager and confident when teaching. I was really keen to teach this Intermediate group because they look really devoted to learn and they have that thirst of learning. After I observed the group, I knew I was going to do something special with them. I felt somehow committed to them because I am also their teacher.

I was given the material to teach and I tried to find some interactive activities for them to practice. I was quite nervous but I planned properly so my class could be great. I arrived to the classroom and some of them were really surprised because I was about to make my debut with them. I greeted them and asked how they felt and tried to make them release their energy with a couple of questions they had to answer in a way that they teased their brains.

My impression was that they wanted to know me and what a showed was a great satisfaction of being teaching them. I had them do a review of the tenses they have being studying. They all participated and felt confident when making questions and sentences in many tenses. They all received me well and clapped their hands accepting the development of my work. They are great students.

My teacher was polite when making some suggestions. She told me that I have to show more confidence when teaching; however, I consider that I have enough confidence but I will continue improving. I really want one more chance to teach and put into practice what my tutor suggested me.
