As I am reflecting on my last teaching practice, I am identifying some of my weaknesses that I have to work upon in order to become an effective teacher. One of the most important skills seems to be lacking, communication. I am finding it a bit hard to communicate with the students. Before I enter the class, I have lot of things in my mind, things which I have to do or say, but then I find it a bit hard to surpass the communication barrier between me and my students.
When I was doing the observations, I could immediately spot out methods and techniques that in my opinion could have been delivered in a different approach. However, there is a difference between observing and criticizing, and implementing the best approach possible. Thus, I have to work upon these skills to improve the way I communicate and deliver knowledge to my students in the best way possible.
