I learned how to be a successful English teacher at Junior high school from Mr. M's lecture. So I will show you the key points.
First, making the teaching plan is very important preparation for the class. In order to make good class teacher have to choose what they want to teach the students, and order them. The process make the class better. Teacher can grasp what is important part of the class.
Second, teachers should teach the students by an intelligible way. It is important to think how to teach from students' ground. Teachers can find the easy way of the students understand and remember the targets. Good teachers have many ideas and imaginations.
Teachers have important work expect for teaching knowledge.
One of them is club activities. Junior high school students do their club activities so hard, and it's coaching and support are not so easy. But teachers can spend much time with the students and enjoy it too. Teachers should have strong fields or favorite fields to enjoy the club activities. Having favorite feilds and giving myself to that will help us not only in the club activities but also in getting many ideas.
To be a succsessful teacher, you should study hard how to teach English and have various experiences during school days. I will do my best too. Good luck!

Microteaching
Hello everyone! Thank you for your cooperating with us in the microteaching. I had good experience by the practice. I will write strong points and weak points about my teaching.
☆Strong Points☆
When we made plans of the class, we try to use the methods which we learned in the last class about presenting a structure. So we showed you some pictures at first, and then we said "Do you play tennis?" and ask you to repeat it.
By this way, I think that students concentrate on the what teachers say and they can learn new grammar practically with a short play.
☆Weak points☆
We had some weak points. First, we needed more enough practice activities. Before the communicative activities students need to practice the new structure again and again. For example, repeating the sentence by indiviual students or practicing with their partners. We should also have asked the students whether they understand the meaning and the form before the communicative activities.
Second, we should have walked around the students and checked their activities during the Interview game. In order to make the activity smooth, teachers should help the students according to their abilities and motivation.
Third, it was difficult for me to talk to the students in English and Japanese. My class was for the first grade of the junior high school, and it is hard for the students to understand the English explanation. So I talked you almost in Japanese, but students also need to get enough inputs from the teacher. I think I should have used English for simple instructions.
I had many weak points, but I could enjoy my microteaching. Please give me your opinions about my teaching, and thank you very much!!!
