My second experience was on February 27th 2015. This time was very different than the first one because in this class I was very tired and it was because I had slept only two hours the night before. My lack of sleep resulted a big inconvenient for the development of my class; since I transmitted my sleepy mood to my students and the atmosphere of the classroom was pretty much down; although I developed the activities I had prepared for the class, I did not feel good about my role as a teacher. After this experience, I have learned that, teachers have a very difficult task, because they have to leave all their personal problems and whatever the situation they are going through at their home so they can transform and transmit the enthusiasm and love for education; since, school is another world and in that world there is no space for anything else that is not associated with the improvement of learning.
The group consisted of students from Basic English; my experience as their teacher was on February, 10th 2015. I felt quite nervous when I realize that I was about to teach a class. My nerves about the situation were disappearing very quickly because the group of students was so nice. The classroom was appropriate for teaching since the students, with their behavior, created a pleasant atmosphere were learning took place. Minutes later, I felt like a teacher; I felt motivated and willing to help the students in any doubt they probably had had. In every activity that I developed the students were participated actively and they all demonstrated a positive attitude toward the lesson I taught. The problem that I could detect is that, when I explained the warm up activity, few students understood my explanation. Now that I think about it; I should have used less complex words and more body language for students to understand the directions. Also, in the future I will be more aware of the time because some activities took too long to develop and I could not develop all of the activities that I prepared. I really enjoyed my first class.
