MY EXPERIENCE IN THE ENGLISH CLASS

Starting the class the teacher arrived early and greeted us, then Daniela handed us a sheet where there was a word search and a crossword puzzle where there were words that were used in job interviews. The teacher gave us a few minutes to solve the exercise of the sheet and then made each of us participate, the people who had finished had to write the words on the board. I participated twice. Then we did another dynamic where we competed for teams, my team did not win but I had a lot of fun. Halfway through the class we started with the performances, my team did well, but the teacher told us what we could do better. As we had not obtained excellent grades, the teacher left us a homework assignment. We had to record us acting and then send the video. Finally the class ended and I do not hesitate to say that it was one of the most fun.

Unfortunately, I was late to this class because I had a problem, so I had to give my punishment, which was to give a fruit to give to the people who responded well. Upon entering, Daniela handed us a sheet about the class we would have. To make the class more dynamic, we formed groups of 5 people and my group was made up of my friends Daniela, Kiara, Jhocelyn and Ivan. In this class we learned to ask questions using the Wh questions. We had to ask questions about the reading that was on the sheet. At first, some of my classmates found it difficult, but with practice the dynamics became easier and more fun and I was happy because my team won. We also learned the difference between in, on and at.  At the end of the class, the teacher reviewed the dialogue of our performance on the job interview and we told her what method of interview we had chosen, we chose the "Case Interview" method. This class was very productive.

This time we did not have face-to-face English class because it was the University elections so they declared a holiday this day. However, the English teacher, Gabriela, kindly asked us by WhatsApp message to connect at 9 in the morning to give us directions on how the next project would be where we should act. She told us by video call that we should act as if we were in a job interview, but for that we must first choose which interview method we would choose to act. Unfortunately I could not connect via video call because I did not have internet at that time but all this was informed by my friend Daniela who I thanked a lot. Finally, the teacher sent us videos and information on how the interview should be. Thank you teacher for worrying that we learn and have good grades. 😊

In this recent English class, the teacher left us a project in which we should act as if we were in a restaurant applying all the expressions she taught us in the virtual class. The name of my team's restaurant was called "the magic grill", at the beginning I was a little bit nervous because I don't like acting but at the end I got used to it. To make the performance more real we carry some dishes that we put on our menu, we bring drinks, cutlery, tablecloth and thanks to that the performance was much better. After the performance we presented the next task that the teacher left us, the task was to sing karaoke and in order to complete that task my team and I coordinated to record ourselves singing and project the video in class, which was funny and everyone laughed, at first I was embarrassed but then I laughed with them. Finally the class ended and I had fun as always.
