In my teaching experience I have seen that leaners come into the classroom with open minds, and it is the teacher’s responsibility to expand their minds with information so that they can use the acquired knowledge to build their personalities and broaden their thought processes to help them solve problems of everyday life. Another thing that has always worked for me in my teaching years is knowing that students have different needs and they grab information differently. As a teacher, I need to be able to consider that when I prepare my lesson. Also, interacting with my students during my free periods has helped me a lot because I get to see if students understood the lesson. I’m currently teaching English and having to communicate with my students in English, even when it is not in a classroom a lesson, improves their self-esteem and they are able to express themselves in English. I am a passionate and a friendly person, thus it’s easier for kids to communicate with me.
