First Teaching Practice (2nd Period)

Describe
I could notice that students of basic English are very quiet; however, it is kind of difficult to work with them because of the low knowledge they have about English. The environment was good, and I like that students really work. The materials that I used in this class were markers, the board, photocopies, and flashcards. All the material was related with the electronic devices.

(Analyze)
Plan Action
Interpret
Generalize
The topic I gave was the Wh-question using the present continuous, and it was not difficult to explain, but the difficult part was that some students do not have the enough knowledge in this level.

I guess that some students have never taken English classes before the university, and that is why it is difficult for them.

I think that using the appropriate words for this level is important to help students learning since they can understand what it is presented by the teacher.
Based on what I already know about giving instructions, I think in basic English this is more important than in any other level.

I believe that make students to talk can help student learning because they are going to improve their speaking skill.
So, in the future, I will consider using vocabulary that they understand better.

In future lessons I will make a better use of some materials that I used for this class

The next time I teach this lesson, I will present more flashcard to present vocabulary.

  1. Hi Rosas, I think that giving instructions to the Basic English students has to be clear and simple because at that level they do not know too much about the language. You should use body language or speak in Spanish as the las resource if they do not undestand what you are explaining. I recommend you to use creative flascards in order to introduce new vocabulay and also try to performed interesting warm ups, they will love it. You did a great job my friend :)
