First lesson reflections

We were very excited about our first lesson with pupils from Class 5B of Guangyang Primary School. We were looking forward to it. I was rather worried about the first lesson I personally had my worries as well. I had no prior teaching experience apart from seeing how my teachers teach us in class. I had hope for the best. However, it turned out to be quite successful. The students were paying attention to us as we engaged them in icebreakers and other activities.

We were then split into 4 groups with each of us handling one group. My group was rather spontaneous. They answered the questions quite cheerfully and were able to answer most of the questions for the worksheet with some help.

I was quite delighted to find out that I was able to teach and ensure that the students were listening attentively. All in all, it was a great experience for all of us.

Cheers,
Shaun Yan
