In this semester, I gained many skills in teaching. I went to Al Choueifat School to observe grade 1C and teach them. There are 28 students in the class of 14 boys and 14 girls. In the first few weeks, I wasn't confident, and I didn't know how to teach. I feel scared when students look at me. Whenever the teacher tells me to try teaching a short lesson, I don't feel comfortable. It is the feeling of being unsuccessful and in a low level. But after few weeks from trying to be confident and thinking of positive thoughts, I began to teach well and better than I expected. With the help of Miss Carol, I didn't just know how to explain a lesson. I also knew how to deal with the misbehaved students and build a good relationship with students. There are always positive sides and negative sides. We cannot be perfect in life. But we can make mistakes to learn.
