Hi, folks! I'm finally in! It was really hard but I've made it! lol Well, I've attended Monique's class. It was an Express Master 2 and I wanted to know how a class of an avanced group functioned. Once I substituted Belo in this same group, as an Express Master 1, and everything was new for me. Execercises don't follow a sequence and you have to find out how to link them. I could do that but I wanted to check it out. So I attended her class and saw many good things. Besides observing what I previously wanted to see, I could also "steal" other things. For example, she not only points the mistakes after pair work but she writes them on the board and asks the students to correct them. It's very useful since some people need this visual contact. Moreover, she is really funny. She plays jokes, laughs and this builds up a nice atmosphere. Teacher and students believe each other. Sometimes I'm so worried about doing everything perfectly that I simply forget to have fun. After her class, I started paying attention to it, and now I try to take every opportunity to laugh with my students. Well, that's all!
See you!
Dani
