Another free topic

 Hello everyone! 

For this week we have again a free topic. I wanted to share my experience of today. Me and my partner Redjona, had the presentation of our project, how to develop an hour of English class. 

During these weeks we have been preparing slowly for how to teach a class. We learned that we have to set objectives before each class and work during the hour to achieve them all in the end. We have also learned how to develop an outline of a class and a lesson plan too. They have been all useful for preparing and presenting this class today. 

During the last week we have done lot of preparation of how we are going to present it. It took us some weeks to agree on what to include or not, what activities to add and how to visually present it. All these conversations mixed with what we have learned directed us on the final work. 

We chose a topic related with our world problems like the pollution, wars, social disasters, economic issues etc. We thought of this topic because it has a lot of space to talk about. Although I have to admit, our students today needed a little push and I had to call names in order for them to speak. Anyways there were active during exercises and did very well on them. In the end we decided the homework activity to be a letter which I took from a blog I follow and together with my partner decided that it was great as homework. 

As for the feedback, I'm very happy and released now. We received a lot of positive response from our classmates and from the teacher too. Positive feedback and critiques are always welcomed and serve as a reminder for the future. Except from the terrible problem that we had with electricity and internet connection, I think everything went well. 

Of course, teaching a class requires a lot of work, but with passion and determination everything can be achieved.
