Hello!!
Today was my second teaching practicum, I felt more confident than the previous class. First because I already know the group, so I feel more familiar with them. I like the way this group work because most of them do the different activities very well.
I feel comfortable with myself when I see the group of students working in the activities I perform or when I see they have acquired something new.
Something that I really like is the feedback, because the teacher lets us know what works well and what does not, it helps us a lot to prepare a better class and so does not make many mistakes.
I really liked this class, I enjoyed it and I have learn that I have to improve more and to be more enthusiastic, but I am going to learn all those details through the practice!!

My first teaching experience


Hello.
Well, my first experience in teaching was in intermediate II with teacher Ovidio Torres. My first class was on Friday.  I felt nervous because I did not know the topic I was going to teach on Friday, I also was worried because of the grammar part, but when I started the class with the warm up activity I felt confident, I know there is a first time to put in practice something.
Something that I liked is that the group work very well, they like to participate and perform the activities with motivation. Something that I could notice is that some of the students like to ask when they have any doubt.
I consider that this first experience has helped me to be more confident in what I do and to improve in some weaknesses that I probably did not know. Another point that I liked was the feedback, the teacher let me know what he liked and what I need to improve for the next class. 
I liked this first experience because I could work and perform all the activities with the students. They are eager to learn, although the group is large. They are adults they already know what they want, because in some of the activities they put in practice very well what they learned.
This experience is going to help me to improve and to put in practice all the knowledge that we have learned in these five years.
