The Reflection of Micro Teaching

In the last class, I did micro teaching and felt the difficulties of teaching more than ever.There were mainly two difficulties that I felt.

First, I could not speak well in English and did not speak English so much. It is difficult for me to teach English in English, but it is good for students to learn English in that way.Should I use English in the class or how much can I use it?How do you felt in the last class as a student and think?
Second,I am shy and got nervous in class,so I could not say the instructions with loud voice and clearly.I am sorry about it and thank cooperative students for help.Also I regret that I could not smile and communicate with students well.

In Interview activity by kiki, by the way, I was impressed that the teacher was always smiling and cheerful. I think it is important thing for teacher. Also, in Karuta by pizza,the teacher always moved and helped students understand the rules and so on. In Using movement by Emiko, there were a lot of funny things and laughter.Every student enjoyed and carefully listened to the English other students said. I think it is effective in hearing English.

Anyway, there were many good points in these micro teaching. I want to learn, use it and improve my skill of class.

How can I improve the typical communicative activities?

1,Information Gap
How? Connect with international understanding
Aim To understand the difference of culture and living style
(Also, it will lead the motive of students for the study.)

Ex. Time difference, food, popular sports and so on.

2,Using movement

How? Connect with message and communicate game in a group
Aim To hear another person of English. If things go well, ask and correct each other in the group cooperation (Also, I hope it goes freely and actively!)
Ex. In one group, one student goes and gets information. The student act as the information shows. The other members of the group guess the information. They can speak only English. If someone says correct answer, the team can other member go and get the next information.

What is important to me?

Hello!Did you enjoy your 'Golden Week 'holidays?I went Takamatu pond for a cherry blossom party ,returned home and played with some friends.I had very nice time.

Anyway, I would like to tell you about my important things in this time.
There are the three things that I think it is important to me.

First,it is people.For example my family,friends or some neighbor.Relief,enjoyment,sorrow,angry or happy,these feelings come from interaction or communication between people,so it makes me like me.

Second,it is learning.People can learn various things from many things.Friends,family,teachers and other people are all teacher in life.They give me meaningful advice.Also newspapers, book
or Internet help us learn many things. Moreover nature is good teacher.It makes us remember that we are the member of living things on this earth.From such leanings,I can be more interested in society or life.

Finally,in my opinion,having fun is most important to me.Not to speaking of ,we can enjoy chat,playing sports or something,but we sometimes do not feel like to do something that we have to do or must do it.For example study,work or something.In such cases, however,I think it is important that doing one's best and enjoy it.
