Recap

Hi everyone! It´s nice to have you back!

In our last class, we did a recap on all the methods while we put the theory into practice and presented our topics to the class. My group presented the TPR method, and we made a beautiful poster and came to the front. That reinforced everyone's knowledge and we learned with and from our classmates (Community Language Learning.) We had a great time and I think that was a great way for us to refresh our knowledge for the next activity: a mini-test on the methods. I don't know my score yet but I'm pretty sure I did well! :D

To sum up this topic, I have to say that I didn't expect these many methods. teaching is complex and I am glad to know a little more about the process of teaching and meaningful learning. I am happy to know what was unnoticed back in time when my teachers played a song in the background or when they made us walk around in the classroom, everything makes sense! 

Here are some pics:

Grammar and Vocabulary Demo Classes

Hello dear teacher and classmates!! Welcome to another weekly entry. Time flies and I can´t believe we are already in a new register! This time, let me start with a fantastic record of our last class. We did some demo classes as a team. It was very funny to see all the course wearing black as if we had planned it!😅😂 Teacher Orlando divided us into four different groups, I'll introduce mine in a second. And we performed grammar and vocabulary topics as teachers. Let´s get into it and review what each one of us presented to the class! Group 1: Vocabulary - Medical Vocabulary Group number one decided to teach medical vocabulary. I really loved their activities and the topic was especially important since we will most likely be interpreting or translating medical-related things, so I found it very useful.  First of all, they started asking some questions, they showed us some medical stuff and we brainstormed as a class, trying to guess what the right term for the image was. Then, the...

Body language, coordination, and improvisation

Hello! Welcome to a new entry!   Thanks once again, for taking the time to read my thoughts on a new topic. This time, I will describe all about our body language class, coordination, and improvisation. In this class, we learned a lot of useful tips to improve our body language, we did many exercises, and I loved our very dynamic class.   To start off, we made some space in the classroom and arranged ourselves into two rows, one in front of the other. Then we had to keep eye contact with the person in front of us, trying to be serious. I was in front of Dani, and it was difficult at the beginning but then I could focus better and made it to the end! This kind of exercise helps us be serious even when students might be telling jokes or laughing but we,  teachers, have to be focused on what we are doing and try to look professional and serious when needed. We also tried to keep eye contact with a peer as we walked around, this was harder than I thought! because everyone was...
