Friday, 26, 2012.
Today was my first class with a new group. This time everything is different because I`m working with the english teenagers program. Everything is kind of different from the major. And since we are working with children it gives much space to learn by playing.

I arrive some minutes before the class started. I was talking to the tutor and he told me that this group was kind of difficult because they were very shy and didnt like to participate. The day that the teacher assigned me the class I was going to teach she told me the same thing and suggested me to be prepared for that.
I started the warm up wondering how students were going to react and for my surprise they got instructions quickly and they understood what they had to do. It was great to see how good they work, this students were so interested in doing the things.I brougth a boardgame for them to practice "ing" form of the verb and they were creating sentences using the structue they learned. It was like + gerund. It was great to see them practicing a lot I think this kind of games pushed them to participate and to practice their English without getting bored.
 I continued doing the activites and the class flowed very natural the only problem I faced it was that as always I was nervous and I forgot to mention some instructions in certain moments, I also forgot to paste the objective even when I had it prepared. I realized about it so late. I just continued with the activities but for next class it will be the first time I will do. At the end of the class I felt satisfied because I sa they were speaking a lot of english and the teacher also mentioned it. They still have some problems using spanish but I hope next class Ii will be better than tihs one.
