¨Student´s suggestions are important for a teacher.¨

Well, it was my last class of this semester. It was very nice. I really liked it. At the beginning, we started making a warm-up in which the students had to pick up some little balls from a bag. After, each of them had to say negative or positive things about the time that I shared with them. Also, they could give me suggestions for improving my way of teaching. I really liked that part; because all of them told me good things and also, the things that I had to improve. I would never forget that especial moment and the things that they told me. They were very sincere and I loved that and I felt very nice. Then, we made some exercises about gerunds. All of the students worked and participated in the class. We had a good rapport this time. They were involved in class. On the other hand, I had to take advantage of oral controlled practice to clarify grammar, vocabulary, intonation, etc. Also, I had to bring some visual aid for them that would help me for obtaining their attention easily.

Well, I really enjoyed my teaching practicum with this group. They are an especial group. At the beginning, I remember that they are a very talkative group in class. And that made me feel bad. But now, I can say that they have changed. And now, they show a different attitude and also, they demonstrate that they really want to learn. I liked the time that I shared with this group. Finally, I want to add that sometimes as teachers, we feel discouraged because of the student´s attitude in class. But, we have to continue doing our job. And at the end, we are going to obtain the reward. So, we never have to give up our teaching work.
