This week is very special for me because I have tried/intend to try as many new teaching techniques as possible and get feedback from my students. The articles I have read so far have been extremely helpful in helping me build up my theoretical knowledge as well as practical one. I couldn`t help but participate in both discussions this week, although only one is obligatory, but I find the topics so interesting and if I didn`t do it I would feel bad and left out.
Power Point has always been my weak point, no matter how much I learned I always encounter a problem I need help with. Sometimes I ask myself if I am ever going to master it.
Engaging students is another difficulty we all have as teachers. Students seem to be less and less interested in what we have to offer or just too tired and busy with other things. That is why we, as teachers always have to look for new ways to motivate them. Sometimes I ask myself, who will work on my motivation?.Where do I find it? I remember as a student I had it and if the teacher was motivating, fine, if not, I found motivation within myself. But today`s students seem to blame it all on us and make us do their job too!
