Feedback to listening Class
April 16, 2007
Group three’s demonstration really piqued my interests and made me involved in class. To start with, the video caught my attention so that I almost forgot to complete the worksheet. It’s a kind of catch-22 situation. The teacher perhaps let students just watch the film only in the first time and then ask them to fill in the blanks in the second time. From group three’s presentation, it revealed an issue about technical problems. Sometimes we used technical aids to make whole class interesting, but we have to assure that all things are all set up in advance. That way, we won’t waste time and impact teaching process. In addition, we’ve already discussed about “repetition” in class. That is really a vast challenge for teachers. Teachers want to give reinforcement for students to remember important concepts; however, teacher ought to consider the students’ feelings: too many repetitions are sterile. All in all, we novice teachers need to practice a lot and learn from every teaching experience.

Dear Tiffany,
Thanks for the idea you shared with me. Through your words I figure out that maybe I lack confidence in myself, so I do not believe that I have the quality and ability to become a teacher; that’s why, while facing to the failures in my teaching demonstration, I lose my faith to overcome it. However, thanks for every one of you, my classmates, you left your advice in my blog to encourage me and help me get to through the dilemma, I’ll keep in my mind. Thank you!
