My last class with the intermediate group was great. I did not spend too much time with them and I can feel I will miss them.
I really like the last class because I feel they participate and enjoy the games; I bring many activities to the class and they were playing with a big smile in their faces. yessss (=
Well because I was playing a lot, the teacher told me that in the part in whick I have to explain the language notes I took toooooooo much time just in one usage because of those activities, and I miss some other important points. So, what I learned is that the next time I should be more careful with the time that it will be assign to every activity.
And what I did not like is that the teacher arrived to the class late and in the second hour they will be working in a listening exam, so I felt the pressure that I have to leave the class soon jaj because some students were worried and nervous because of the exam.
I really enjoy my first period teaching and I want to be sincere because before this experience I did not like too much the idea of teaching, but I am thinking carefully about this because it is not too bad, I was having a good time. Now I can say that it is not possible not to like something if you never taste al least. (=
I know, I dont have to much experience as a teacher because this was the very first time teaching in my life but I would like to learn more and more..................

This was a great day..... (=
Hi gallinas................... I am very happy today and let me tell you why. Well, today was my third time teaching, but it was the first time I felt happy and proud after one of my classes.
As I was telling you guys last week about the problem of making my students play and partcipate in some of the activities; well, today that was not a problem anymore.
After this good experience in which I could see my students playing, laughting and partipating a lot; the first words that came into my mind were when the teacher Cristian told us that "we should never think that our students know about an specific game or activity;" that it can be the most common game, but we never know if our students know about that game just because we have been playing that game for years.\
And guess what? I played the SWAP SEATS as a warm-up activity, and they enjoyed the activity a lot that I could see some students comment around that it was a great activity and they wanted to continue playing.(=
And the better part is that I did not bring candies or cookies as I was first thinking, and they participate today in my class succesfully jijiji. YES YES YES YES YES YES YES.
But guys that is only the beggining of a great day....because they also told me that they like my pronunciation jaja believe it or not.
Finally, all these good experiences today encourage me to continue working more, hard and even better because today I proved that I can do it........take care.

Second class and everything looks better.................
Today was my second experience I can say that even better than the last one, this time I was not nervous anymore because I felt that the students are starting to know about me, and I could even see some different faces with big SMILES and I really like it that makes me feel comfortable in the classroom. I felt that my first class was not so dynamic, but for this time I prepared more activities that I though my students can enjoy. I played some music to add something extra in the class and I want to hope they like it.
Yes I really want to hope they like it because the truth is that they dont like to stand up too much but I will still being trying to make them enjoy the class. Most likely I will need to bring some rewards like cookies or candies because it is hard for me to make them participate, I dont know if it is ok, but I will try too (:
And guys I hope you are doing great in your classes too. GOOD LUCK.

I am done with my first class gallinas yeihhhhhhhhh.......
Well, today in my first class I can say that was amazing and not because all was perfect; It was amazing because I learned from my mistakes. It is good to know from someone else the things you need to improve because all those teachers that are in charge of us the only thing they want is help me and help you.
jaja and something bad that happened to me during the classs was that one student ask me for something about grammar that I really dont know, so I had to tell him that I will look for it and give him the answer next week........Shame on me. (=
And something good ummmm I guess I like them because they were participating a lot , thanks God.
