My
teaching practice
Areas
to improve and useful projects
What is special about our
job is that while teaching you never stop learning. This desire for learning is
always fueled by a desire to improve, give the best of us , update
our teaching techniques so that we can satisfy
our students' needs.
Feedback and reflecting
on our classrooms practices, being open to changes and being ready to embrace
new ideas are key qualities for us , teachers , to keep developing for the sake
of a better teaching/learning experience.
For me, there many things
that I would like to try in my class and I live with the constant feeling
of "Anissa, you can do better" which keeps pushing me forward.
Large and
mixed-ability classes.
How to deal with large classe?
For me it's important to be able to keep order and offer the joy of
learning for a large class. I do admit that's not easy. It's hard, challenging,
exhausting but,still, have to find a way out and try my best to succeed in keeping
their attention and enhusiasm throughout the lesson. Things get even
harder when students have different needs . Indeed large classes
implies multi-level / mixed-abilities classes. I know that I'm in
constant need of inspiring ideas, guidance and help to be able to come up
with suitable activities for such a teaching context. Here are
some of the kinks that have been of great help so far
That's my feeling when I'm in class. I feel that I have
that responsibility as I'm teaching young learners. It's a matter of paramount
importance to work on boosting their self-image, self-esteem and
self-confidence. At that age they may feel lost , they may even lose faith in
school and education in general, they may go through different psychological
and physiscal changes that might affect their personality and shake their
beliefs . So it's up to us to instill all those good values . I think that we
should help them work on themeslves to help them become able to pass on those
values and be ready for the future (to live in society, at work...)

My etwinning project:
entiltled:
Our Words To The Word/ Nos Messages pour le monde
Identidying learning difficulties
Identidying learning difficulties
Making the lessons more dynamic.
Animated classes boosts
students' motivation .Websites such as Powtoon which has helped me create my
own videos for the students is one of the tools that is offering a possiblity
to make the lessons more dynamic and more interesting and engaging.
I'd also like to be well equipped as teacher to
identify those students who have learning difficulties easily so
that I won't waste my time nor theirs so that support, help and
understanding would be offered on the spot. Training is highly
recommended and need here
I'm sure that the
journey on this MOOC will help a lot working on these areas regarding my
teaching practices
