Hi again!

Hello everyone! It´s nice to be back again! 

It feels like it was yesterday when we were in Didactics I, and in the blink of an eye, we are now in Didactics II. 馃槷馃槷馃槑

We had our first English Didactic class last  Thursday, we talked about how the three registers will be distributed and teacher Orlando gave us a little insight on how we will be evaluated, although we won´t have written midterms perse, we will start planning and teaching! 

I am pretty excited that we will have a closer look into real-life scenarios. I am sure we will struggle sometimes but I am also sure that we will spend a good time in the class with our future students, so I can´t wait to see what it all will be like! 

We also did a surprise diagnosis test and I was quite disappointed by my lack of memory 馃槄 but in my defense, I have to say that maybe I did not remember the names but some important features of each theory and method, so that was a plus. Still, I did pretty bad and I´m looking forward to learning from our experiences this coming semester.


Thanks for reading this short entry stay tuned for the next entries. Have a nice one! See you around!

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!馃槄馃槀 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...
