Feedback received in practicum 1
First of all, here are some comments I have received throughout my first practicum at the primary level.
Throughout this practicum I have experienced teaching for the first time and I have listed the comments I have received from my associate teacher. First of all, my language was adequate, the voice was good, I was speaking loud enough so students in the back were able to hear me. Also, I was not speaking to fast and the vocabulary I used was adapted for all the level of students I was teaching to. Moreover, my associate teacher told me that my lesson plans were well prepared and therefore the students were interested because I was using different strategies and I was in constant adaptation. She told me that it was important to vary the activities in one course so the students stay motivated and don't get bored. My associate teacher also thought that I was using in a good way resources such as flashcards or simply the board. Finally, she thought that class management looked easy for me .
However, since it was my first practicum, I had things to work on. Here are some comments I have received from my associate teacher. She told me that I should explain everything in detait to the students at the primary level because if not they would all ask the same question one after the other. Also, I should always repeat my instruction twice or have a students repeat the instruction to make sure everyone understood correctly.

Throughout this practicum I have experienced teaching at the secondary level and I have listed the comments I have received from my associate teacher. First of all, I was not talking to loud but just enough so everyone could hear me. Also, my explanations were clear, what I was expecting and what the students had to do was clear from the beginning of my activity. Again, this associate teacher thought that my lesson plans were well structured and organised. Moreover, I was firm with discipline so my classes went well. I was always checking if the students understood what they had to do.
However, since it was my first practicum at the secondary level, my associate teacher wanted to share tips with me such as, correction in group is challenge because they will talk all the time. She told me to have them sit back at their place and then correct. Also, she told me that it is important to repeat the students answers when correcting, because they have the good pronunciation and it is sure that everyone understood.
Finally, I have two great opportunities during these practicums and it was very useful.
