classroom management

The last class, our classmates Rodrigo, Diego and Eduardo made an interesting presentation about classroom management. It was really showy for me as a future teacher because through a good classroom management is possible to reach a good performance with positive results too.

A good teacher needs to be original, and interactive in his lessons these are the reasons why is necessary to have a good voice tone, corporal language and spontaneity too.

For a good lesson, the most important is student’s attention and interest, but how can we do that? a good answer for this question says that to do a good lesson is necesary to incentivate all the students to participate, for this, is necessary to be fair and comprehensive with them.

This presentation, also gave me a lot of ideas about how to be fair and comprehensive with everyone in the classroom, for example: a correct use of the space is a good alternative to catch the student's attention equality, in rows is possible to orient the attention to the board, in circles and horsesshoes is possible to make a lesson more interactive, where everyone student is able to see each other, and finally in groups where students can work as a team developing at the same time very important values as comradeship and responsability.

"When a lesson is interesting and interactive for the students, the lesson can be success and constructive".

communication and blogs

The last class, we were talking about blogs and other different web spaces where is possible to share knowledge, information and personal experiences too.

As a future teacher of English I think that the use of these spaces can provide us a lot of important advantages, considering that actually the students are able to use the computer as the most important and interesting mass media in their lives, our relation with this technology must be closer day to day, for a good performance in the classroom.

A creative and interesting lesson.

Micro-Lessons

I think, that as future teachers of English we have to know how to do a good and significative lesson, that is the reason why we must try to change our actual and sometimes bored ways to teach.
In my opinion, Micro-Lessons are an excellent alternative to teach in a different, useful and significative way; because, if we are able to do a good micro-lesson, we will be able to engage the student's attention too, evaluating different aspects at the same time, for example: grammar, syntax, vocabulary, pronunciation, accentuation, loud, reading, writing, etc.

How to do a good presentation?

In my opinion, a good presentation needs different aspects to be clear and interesting, that is the reason why, as future teachers of English, we will have to know the different stages clearly (engage, study and activate).

Also, is important to mention that the use of different materials can be a huge help for our performance in the classroom, for example: If we uses a radio, audio cassettes, compact discs, videos, power point etc, the students can be more motivated by the lesson, that is the reason why a good presentation needs to be original and interesting at the same time.

Learning to teach

hi everyone, this is going to be my space, where the main idea is to know more about education.

How to teach? and what to teach? are going to be some of the questions that I will try to answer, through the content of the lessons and my personal experience.
