Teaching Practicum II is done.

Third Practice/ third period

To be enthusiastic is one of the most important things to motivate students. My lesson plan for this  third practice contained a very nice warm-up to start the class;however, I saw a few motivation in the students`performance, so I decided  to motivate them  by smiling, increasing my participation in the warm-up and telling some cheering phrases  such as: you can do it, go ahead, etc. As soon as I said  and did those things, the students were faster in working  for the rest of the class.After the warm-up, I continued with the presentation of the topic and with the grammar explanation  about  modals, in this part I tried to  explained the rules in a very easy way in order to make students to  understand  faster.Later , I finished with some practices about it, at the end of the class, I thanked them for  being nice students and for having given me the chance to put into practice  what I have learned from my masters.

I confirmed my feelings about motivation in class when   my tutor told me that she  liked the enthusiasm i  had.

I had  a nice teaching experience.
