Future Teacher Reflection

1170 Words5 Pages

As a future teacher I have been exposed to a wide variety of theories that have broadened my knowledge regarding the teaching and learning of a foreign language. The teaching practices helped me to put theory into practice and reflect of my performance in front of the class. The aim of this work is to present some situations that occurred during these encounters with kindergarteners.
The teaching practices at kindergarten were delivered two weeks before the end of the school year without having met the group in advance. It has been proved that teachers who observe other colleague’s lessons become more professional and dedicated instructors due to the advantages they may bring in teacher’s development.
The outstanding importance of classroom …show more content…

A the moment to decide the contents to be taught, for instance, I had read many books related to kinder but I had run out of time so my peers’ experience helped me to decide which contents bear in mind. Moreover, I found that creating my own material was the best option and it was what I enjoyed the most despite the fact that it is time consuming. Having analysed my performance in this level, I now feel I enjoyed the experience of delivering lessons to little children.

Now, after having read some current theories about procedures in kindergartens, I have significantly developed my knowledge of how children were deeply rooted in their daily routine and they were not ready to change their way of working. This understanding is essential to me as a practitioner because I have realized that adults should see the world through children’s eyes. By helping them to explore the world around them without limiting their possibilities and allowing ourselves to reconsider the perks of daily work is a good way to succeed in delivering interesting lessons.
Taking everything into account, I have realized the importance of being a reflective practitioner since reflection on our actions has nurtured the idea of becoming not only in a teacher of the English language but also in a professional instructor. This piece would help me to look at the future with an understanding of the intricate patterns in the teaching

    Through this knowledge, the teacher can presume how children of a particular age group will act, what they are capable of doing and what they are not likely able to do. Consequently, the teacher can devise activities rather confidently by taking all these aspects into consideration. At this stage, the teacher can take advantage of the windows of opportunity for the child’s growth. In other words, the teacher benefits from the sensitive period of a child’s development to provide him with enriching activities; the best period for the child to learn and develop further. In addition, what the children learn should be relevant to their environment and life experiences.

    2.0 INTRODUCTION Language development happens both inside the classroom (as part of a formal establishment, school or institute) and outside it. The classroom is generally considered a formal setting, and most other environments informal, with respect to language learning. “In environments where informal language development is adequate, it is possible to regard the formal classroom as supplemental, complementary, facilitating and consolidating”(Van Lier, 1988: 20). For second-language development in such environments the informal settings can be regarded as primary and the formal classroom as ancillary. The L2 lesson then becomes a language arts lesson, focusing on special language skills and cognitive/academic growth, much in the same way

    Being a teacher is a journey that has much to do with learning about yourself and being aware that what happens in your classroom reflects only on how are you with yourself. Teachers are not conscious that they project into students, and that affects how things go in the classroom. I believe the first characteristic of a good teacher is that he/ she is always willing to analyze his/her teaching performance. Second the teacher is humble enough to receive input about the development and application of techniques, learning from it and improving.
