Celta Self Evaluation
A)
TP5 was composed of two objectives, the main one being the students practicing listening, reading and in turn answering specific questions related to the text whilst the secondary objective was to test the students to practice vocabulary and pronunciation.The students were encouraged to discuss between each other the answers in the listening comprehension and talk about the subject matter in a personalized way. They were to learn new vocabulary related to the text. Judging from student feedback I was able to achieve my main objective, students seemed to follow my instructions sufficiently as I made sure they read the questions beforehand and then read the story for gist. My tutors and peers have noted that I was too tense in previous lessons and I’d pace around the class too much however this time I tried to contain myself by sitting down when handing out tasks however there is still room for improvement. The initial part of the lesson seemed to work well and I’m content with the way it panned out. The aim was to get students talking to each other about their life in malta with their partner and then relate the story to the class by only using six words as a way of testing their listening and summary skills in a practical situation also working as a transition into the reading/listening comprehension. I was supposed to elicit the correct versions of the words students had difficulty with in the previous lesson however during the lesson I decided that it would be better to do it towards the end because it would make for a better lead in to the next section however due to time constraints I didn’t manage to fit it in. Next time I’ll prioritize correcting errors from previous lessons in the beginning of the current lesson as I really noticed students comprehending the definition and pronunciation of the word.
In the second section students had to answer specific questions relevant to the text.I opened this section by asking if they knew who ernest hemingway
