Me as a teacher



Dear all!! I've created this blog for a summer course. Taking into account that we are supposed to talk about our teaching philosophy, I'll say that my idea is not only being an English teacher but also an educator, as I consider the contents are important but also helping them at being "good", polite and respectful people. Getting into more methodological aspects, I would say I like some of the new teaching technologies because they allow a more effective and funny class. However, I wonder if we, the teachers, are ready for so fast and big changes. Moreover, one of the aspects I'm most worried about is the infrastructure. Are all the laptops, the digital white board, digital books, etc... going to work without connection problems? I'm not pretty sure....

Please, find the image I've posted of myself and an image to show what my face will be at some point next year! (please, see the difference: the picture on the left represents teaching using traditional methods and the one on the right...guess it...new technologies??)

Please, feel free to write on my blog to share any ideas or experience you wish!!

See you soon!!

  1. If anyone asks my students, they will assure I have that face at some point of the year using traditional methods. I'm also a little scared about connection problems and not being sure with technology tools, but we'll have to face them happily.

  2. You're right, but I presume we will always have to have a plan B in case we have this kind of problems.

  3. I have got the sme trouble: I am working with digital books next course. The publishing house provides a digital book off line. But is the school going to be able to provide with the equipment, connections...? I have some doubts.

  4. I agree with you on the idea of not just being a teacher but also an educator. Now technology gives us the chance to be closer to our students and do things together. But....I love the image of your face asking for help. I'm sure it reflects what happens to many of us at some point during our class. Fantastic!

    I think that a few of us will have the same face middle next year (about using new technologies, connections problems ....)
