I forgot to say about my teacher Leah when I talked about respect in the classroom.
Well, she`s a very good teacher, only compliments about her. The only problem is
that she does not know about our reality in Brazil classrooms, for example, we
cannot afford all the stuff used to teach and the number of students does not
allow this kind of teaching Leah is learning. That`s true. Besides that we have
serious problems with the bad behavior students, most of them are not interested
in English classes and protest against it, most of them. It is a very hard work.
Leah`s classes is all we dream about teaching but it is also far away from our
reality. I hope someday it is going to change. I do my best to teach English in Brazil and I will use everything I`m learning here but in a different way, the way that is possible. During this time I`m taking classes with Leah I have been thinking about my own classes as a teacher, so I`m getting some good ideas!
