 REFLECTION SECTION

My thought about this book is that it is very dense, what I mean by this is that every
single detail that may help or affect negatively your class is mentioned. Because of that
we acquire more “tools” necessary for teaching a successful class. But this also Works
as a disadvantage for us the learners, since it is a lot of information we cannot
memorize it all just by reading. I personally think this problem is solve by the class
discussions we handle everyday day of classes and also by the feedback we are given
by the teacher.
About the teacher I personally think that the teacher methodology is very effective
since we have focused more time in discussions (with all the class or with our
partner).Allowing us to interpret each lesson. I mainly like the teacher feedback after
each presentation, it was very precise, detailed every important part, included some
recommendations without being harsh and also allowed us to give some feedback
which is very useful because we have to use all our knowledge of teaching.
I think I had a lot of difficulties this month since I have forgotten a lot in the last three
months since I dropped ICPNA .I had trouble with my first presentation but after
seeing my classmates I remembered a lot. In the end I still think I have to improve a lot
of things but I also feel that I have improved a lot this month.
