micro teaching

I did a micro teaching with Kanako . We did Pre-reading and In-reading activities in the micro teaching . The object of the micro teaching is to understand difference of how to order in a restaurant between Japan and US .


-weak point and strong point-

strong point
*We used a jesture , it heped understanding difference .
*We did "T or F "to check that students could understand the content .
*I spoke KANCHIGAI story to show the difference of culture for students .

weak point
*We should have made more chances for the students to read text book .
*We should have made communication between students .


-Discover about teaching-
After my micro teaching I feel teaching english is difficult . We practiced our micro teaching many time , but Icannot do well . I thought a teacher have to think that how students respond for a question . This micro teaching was good experience .

Kanage,
I thought that your lesson was very well organized and that the pre-reading was very good at capturing the students’ interests. I thought the questions were also appropriate.
Here are some tips:
1) (Nabeso) When you use English in class you should not read it from a piece of paper, it makes your English difficult to understand. Teachers have to be able to use English spontaneously.
2) JET (Kanage): You are a role model for the students so that means you should use English in class. If students see the Japanese teacher speak English, it will be an inspiration for them.

Soya,
Thank you for your teaching. I enjoyed your class and learned many things from it.
I liked your way of introducing the lesson. It would be interesting for students, even for the students who don't like English. They can enjoy your KANCHIGAI story and gestures, and can learn the differences between Japanese and American. And you made the topic clear in the begining of the lesson. It was really good.
But as you wrote, you should have had more time to have students speak. And don't read the paper, as Mr.Hall wrote. Show students more smiles. It's very important. It can motivate them to study English, I think.
Anyway you did a good job. And I think it would be a good experience for you. Thank you.

Hi Soya!This is MIsaro!
I enjoyed your class so much!
Firstly Tom-Soya's Kanchigai story was good! Also using gesture as pre-reading activity was good point too. I could feel fun of English class through this story and know difference of culture. So it is very good as introduction.
But I wanted more speaking English time. You should make students more read in concert or make voices, I think.
Anyway your class was so interesting!! Thank your for your teaching☆

Hello!
I think your way to use blackboard is very good. It' s easy for students to understand after they know the lesson' s theme. Soya' s introduction to this theme is also good and a lot of fun. Especially, "True or False" is easy way to grasp the story.
But you were little shy. Teachers should always active and cheerful. So, you will do better to teach in a loud voice. And as you wrote, you should communicate more with students. They are happy to speak to ALT!
Thank you for your teaching, and we should study more!

I think your introduction is very good. You showed the theme of the class to us. So, students could understand what to study. And, your gesture is easy to understand for students.
If you have more time to have students speak, your teaching will be more good!! Thank you!

Hello, tomu-Soya☆
Your lesson was so practical that I admired Kanage and you!!
Especially, the first of the lesson, you raised a question at estaurants in Japan and U.S..
So student could imagine what they studied today.
Moreover, They could think and compare the two restaurants.
Thank you for good teaching(ゝ∀・)♪

Hi,Tom!This is Wakame. Thank you for your teaching. I really enjoyed your lesson, because your class had many gestures. Students like movement and it's good material to make students active.
And as you wrote, we could understand the context well, but we needed more reading practice.I think it sounds good for students to read the sentences with gestures. Anyway your class was fine! See you tomorrow!

Thank you for teaching.

Hi!This is Nakki.Thank you for your teaching!
Your story had students get interested in differences between America and Japan and guess the topic.In fact I eanjoyed your story and gesture.
T or F was good way review the contents.When you give students the answers,you should tell the questions again.If you do so,students who could not have understoodt them could check.
Good job☆

Hello!This is Pizza.
I felt your questions, "How do people order in Japan/America?" helped us in understanding the contents.
If there were more time, it would better to take more time for students' reading and understanding meaning.
Thank you for your teaching!

Hi!! I'm Noriharu. Thank you for your micro teaching. Your role "Tomsoya" was very interesting but also "KANCHIGAI story" was good.
But I think you shouldn't read the paper. As Mr.Hall wrote,it makes your English difficult to understand foy students.
Anyway you did very good!! Thank you!

Thank you for class.
Your class was compared the way of ordering Japanese and American was interesting. The teaching material of the blackboard helped us to understand the differences of a culture. And we learned about a its defferences at first, we could know the context in a textbook.
I wanted you speak louder. I could not listen.
