Hi everyone!!!!!

 

WHAT AN ANECDOTE!!!!

I have learned many different things in these classes provided by our teachers.  I have also learned a lot from my new friends. We come from different cities and regions of Ecuador. It´s kind of funny to share experiences from them and learn how to work together, help each other when we have doubts, telling jokes about the way we talk according to the place we come from, enjoy our free time and things like that….

Besides,  another  thing that I have learned is not to be so anxious and try to do things quickly  While  a teacher is explaining an activity to us,  like the one that  Delia was explaining  The strategy "I do, We do, You do"  for creating a blog. As soon as Delia finished the explanation, my partners who were sitting next to me told me “You said you didn´t know anything about how to create a blog but now you have it already done” Another partner assumed that I had it done before. Actually I was just following the steps because I didn´t pay attention to the instructions. Then I said “Sorry I thought I had to do it at the same time at the instructor was explaining. I was completely lost, however I could have completed an activity that was supposed to be an assignment for the following week. I was so embarrassed. Sorry for the misunderstanding, Delia.

This kind of anecdote has helped me to be conscious about situations that our students may face when they are not paying attention, don´t listen to the instructions or even when they try to do things quickly.  We as teachers sometimes have students who behave like this. Taking the role as a student has made me comprehend them in a better way.
