The twenty second day of Sea-Teacher 2017, teaching demonstrations


Today, I had teaching demonstrations. I taught listening and speaking skill with topic “advance emotions” in three classes. The first class, the activities were not completed because the time was not enough. I explained the materials too long; I tried to make students understand, because student’s level was very low. They had difficulties to understand the materials, slow respond, shy to answer. In this first class, my self-confidence was low and I felt nervous.
The topic was Emotions (advance emotions)

The second one, the activities were completed; from warm-up activity, presentation, and practice activity. Students were more active than the first one. This class, I felt more enjoy, and I did not feel nervous anymore.

Material
The last one is the most active class that I taught. I did not need long time to explain the materials. So, in the practice session, there were many students practice their conversation. This class, I felt enjoy to teach, and I had self-confidence to teach.

Students’ task
Yet I taught with the same lesson plan, activities, materials, and topic, but different level of competence and different characteristics. So, I felt the challenges. However, it taught me how to interact with them, how to adjust the method / approach to them. More than that, it can help me to be a good teacher for the future.

That’s all of my entire activities today…
