Classroom Management and Organization

Well, classroom management is a sort of important characteristic or technique that effective teachers must have or apply.  It is important to emphasize that by means of classroom management effective teacher are just not teachers who know how to support students learning  through instructional techniques, strong curricular, material, and rapport with the class. The effective teachers must create an overall environment conductive to learning. This supportive learning environment requires that teachers practice skills in the classroom organization and management; it also requires consistency in behavioral expectations and responses.

By knowing and applying all of this, I think I am able to empower in a great deal my classroom management. Right now, I guess that I am like in middle of classroom management completeness because in my first class, I started talking to my students about the respect that was going to be required in the classroom, and I also talked about the responsibility I had with them; moreover, I started creating a good rapport among themselves and among them and me. Fortunately, the students are really nice, and they understood what my point was.

To get further through my classroom management, I am looking forward to helping my students develop their language skills by means of my classroom management. The lesson plan and materials I use, for example, are construct in a way that allows students to practice and at the same time improve their language skills. So I can say that the lesson plan is one of my strategies to guide my students to a great performance, and materials which also are really important contribute in a great deal to it.

My classroom management until now is quite of organized; however, I prepare a plan “B” for every class I teach just in case something does not work as I expect. As a conclusion, I can say that this really helps and empowers my performance because it has shown me the way that things in my teaching should be done.

teaching

Well, I would like to say teaching is an amazing experience that makes me grow not only as a future teacher but also as a person.  I am really glad to be teaching 9^th grade because the students are really nice and intelligent. Moreover, their teacher, my tutor or professor, is a great person, and she always gives instruction and makes the students aware about their own learning in an EFL environment. However, there is a thing that I do not like at all which is that students just use the target language in a 30% of the time in class. The teacher speaks in Spanish almost all the time, but it is important to clarify that students do not understand the teacher when speaking English. Though students are taught in Spanish almost all the time, they are really interesting in the target language. the enthusiasm they have is stunning, and they are willing to learn English.
