I should not be that sad at describing my first class because actually the class was not that bad, but I started the class a little bit sad with bad news. Those bad news really affected the mood in which I supposed to be starting the class and at the end the class was not what I though it will be. I came into the classroom before 2 pm and most of the girls of the class were already there waiting for me; that surprising me a lot because normally I was the first one to be in the class getting ready with the material but this time I did it with my students already in the classroom. Since the teacher came into the classroom she told me that I will have some problems with a misunderstanding that I got from last week and that she needs to talk to me and she was so serious that I was afraid and I spent the whole class thinking about What can be that serious? All the girls knew also about the problem and that was even more bad.
Finally, I started the class by playing a game that will help me to know about some of the names of the students in the classroom; I could see that the girls were getting fun but they got tired of the game very quick, probably for next time I need to take into consideration the types of students I am going to be gettting in a class because all my students are just girls and most of them are probably around 24 to 28 years old and that is why I should not be selecting games that are sometimes for boys or teens.
After the warm,I introduced the class with some flashcards that help me to teach some of vocabulary that I will be using in the class. I tried to make my students to participate as much as I can,so they can learn by doing the things by themselves. I did not have any problem with the girls in the participation because they were really helping me and supported me in every activity. That made me feel happy.
Also because I was teaching the grammar use of "that and this" I brought for the class a page if the main information plus some examples and pictures of it. At the end I am not sure if they really like the class but in a kind manner they gave me clasp (:
Now, after this first experience; I am trying to get the things as normal because this must not be something new for me anymore. Lets see what happen for next class. ufff nervous again.
