CLOSURE

It has been more or less 4 months since the first day that I started to take this course of firegin language teaching. It was very hard work; I never thought this could be so demanding for me and my classmates. But now that I have finished I have seen how important is to have the aspects seen in class for the practicum that is coming next semester. 

Like I have mentioned before, I have learned quite a lot, about theory, how to manage a classroom, what to observe, how to treat kids, among many other things; but all that realted to theory. In terms of practice, that has been the most wonderful experience, it is actually interacting with kids and actually living the experience of being a teacher. At the beginning I admit I was a bit lost, I did not know how was it going to be or how was I going to deal with everything that I have learned at once. Now, after working very hard during class and working at school with the teacher that I was observing, I believe I have enough feedback to correct my mistakes and to have second thoughts of what I am doing. By this I mean thinking not only once, but twice about what I am going to be teaching and how.

What I would recommend to the future students of this subject is to have in mind that this is the previous step to check, ask and think everyhting that can come into mind because next time is for real. Next time you will be really teaching and you will be observed. So take this time to clear whatever doubt and to do your on research on things you think would be helpful for your practicum.
