Default Re: Your first class topic :D

I've worked at this school before...when I was a brand new teacher. Back then, I had only 2 students and it remained that way for the entire duration of the class. This is a conversation class tho, so I don't really want a reading class. I think I failed to mention that it was a conversation class...sorry. The students will be around my age also...mid 20s.

The first time I had this class...I did 'knock myself out' for the two students I had. It was pretty stressful. I had never taught before and had to make all the content myself. Luckily, I still have all the material from those days many moons ago. I'll definitely modify them a bit tho. It was mostly a Q/A type class. Lots of questions from myself to the students. It didn't have much variety but my students really enjoyed it. However, when I asked for their own class ideas...they gave no feedback. I hear that's sort of common among Chinese students tho.
