Teaching Practice (Peer Teaching) Week 2

After having completed one week of teaching practice, all of us had become aware of our shortcomings and were working hard on overcoming them. For the second week our teacher Ms Prabhitha had shuffled our groups and made us work with another set of students. My peer group consisted of Athira Sreekumar, Awani, Annie and Feba.

Day 6 (9/11/20)

I continued with the prose lesson. As instructed by my teachers, I had resorted to occasional code-switching. I had looked up the Malayalam terms of the glossary section and used them while explanation so that the students could relate better.

Day 7 (10/11/20)

I was extremely happy after todays session. I had incorporated a lot of inputs of my teachers. I feel that my class is getting honed everyday. I still have to work on my pace of speaking and slow down a bit. 

Day 8 (11/11/20)

The activity I took today was enjoyed greatly by my peers. They reflected that they were able to recall the lesson well through it. With all the positives being said, I still have to reduce my pace of delivery. 

Day 9 (12/11/20)

As I was unwell yesterday, I wasn't able to prepare a solid lesson plan. I was quite nervous on how I would take the class. But as I was very thorough with the story, I could manage it without much difficulty.

Day 10 (13/11/20)

I was contended at the end of todays class. Throughout the course of the two week I had received several suggestions from teachers on how to improve various aspects of my teaching practice and was able to rectify them as much as possible.
