On the last chance I practiced teaching, I got
nervous. I got nervous because I was afraid if my friends were not cooperative
but they were. The problem was me that I did not master the materials well so I
found difficulties to explain the materials. Therefore I mixed my language. But
I know God is always fair, from those difficulties I became aware that it is
not true an English Teacher should use English as the medium language. It depended
on the students’ level. For low class students, the teacher can mix the
language in order to make the students (all of the students) understand the
materials. I found that the students would be easier to understand the
materials if they are explained in two languages.
Then I want to tell that I have got many
experiences of becoming a good teacher from Micro Teaching Class. I learned how
to greet students on the first meeting in polite way. I learned how to make a
good set induction, a goof main activity of the teaching-learning, and a good set
closure. I found reinforcement was good for students’ advantages and could make
them learned happily. I found a lot of my friends did some mistakes when
practiced teaching and I could see they found the way they learned from their
mistakes. I found that mental readiness was very important when it’s time to
teach. I learned mastering the materials well was the one way of preparing the
mental readiness. Besides I learned that respect others was important for a
professional teacher. An old man said that you would be respected if you
respected others. I think it is real.
All right, at the end I only can say it is
great of having this class. I will never forget about this class and all of the
experiences that I get from this class. Thanks a lot once more for Mr. Prast.
Thanks for this study program. And thanks for this university.
