Sometimes we think teaching is an easy way but it´s not true there are different things that we may not know, and that can be completely useful to our job.

Today we were talking about principles and I realized the importance of each one, I think before teaching we must know about them, and also how does the students learn ,  they way they react to certain activities and  what is good an what is wrong about our methodology, we can think that we are doing well when in fact we are not. So this principles gave us advises to improve our job and to make it challenging to our students. 

We also talked about observation and the importance of it, it gives us the chance to show how do we develop in front of our students , to have somebody who is looking at you,  provide you of tools and feedback about your teaching techniques, It mustn´t be a judgment it must be a reflection.

In the last lesson we learn that it´s very important to know yourself as a teacher cause this way we can encourage or students to learn the target language, we are working with teenagers or young adults and we must provide them with tools to accomplish their goals in order to succeed in life, it´s not just teaching a language it goes beyond and every teacher is able to do it.

To finish with my comment , who says that teaching can be boring?  it is such a rewarding experience we just have to get the  right activities to share with our students and to develop skills like teamwork and values and to be open mind to share experiences.
