I think the preparation for today’s class is better than the last class. During my lecture, I tried to see their response when explaining some points. I used some simple questions to have them think about the key points instead of just demonstrating by myself. I believe such interaction was effective because I saw some were thinking and trying to get ideas. I think I need to be more explicit about the group division when assigning group work because, in this class, students seemed confused about who they were working with. As I become increasingly familiar with them and remember their names individually, students are more willing to interact with me in class. I have become more comfortable using the teacher’s voice to motivate them. I collected feedback from students, and most of them think my voice is clear and my instructions are easy to understand, so I believe my practices of giving instructions are adequate. I need to learn more deeply about the topics before the class to provide practical advice when students have problems. I believe this would also help me build my confidence as a teacher. I have always been trying different ways to engage students. I was also adjusting my pacing of the class. Instead of waiting for a long time when they were thinking, I was trying to keep them up with my lecture.
