The First Week
The first week represents high expectations and tension.There were different events throughout this week which did not allow me to give a class. About finishing the week, I had the opportunity to meet one group and give them a class. 😶😶
I felt nervous but I did not know why if it was not the first time that I had to give a class. It was only one hour, and I had planned a two hours class. It was about a vocabulary class related to food. I really like those warming up activities in which everyone can play in the classroom so as to forget that it is a normal class. I adapted an activity related to the unit and the students really wanted to participate in the activity. That really made me feel more comfortable. Before starting the class, I was wondering if I had to force my voice because there are some moments that my voice is too low. However, fortunately I could work my voice without effort. 😬😬
At the end of the class my cooperator teacher gave me some recommendations to take into account such as to write always the date and to pray before starting the class. Honestly, I felt satisfied with what I did, taking into account that it was the first class. But I would do differently, for instance, to have a more energetic attitude to catch the students' attention and to speak slower in order for me to be clearer.
