My students had difficulty expressing themselves. What did I do wrong during my session?
As a practicing teacher in the first instance, when I did my class session and took up the topic of the “Simple Present”, I had high expectations towards my students. Then when I started my session I did activities and practices where my students had to interact with me through WhatsApp audios, which some students had difficulty speaking, however, I did not take it much into account and I advanced with my session. As the session progressed, I realized that some of the students had difficulties when asked to participate through the WhatsApp audio, they were too slow to send it, that's when I wondered if this would bring negative consequences.
Also in the development of activities I could perceive that many of my students had difficulties and fear to express themselves. Despite the fact that I conducted a dynamic and interactive class with my students, they failed to develop their skills and reach the goal that I had set for myself. That is why I have chosen to create technological resources such as musical stories, Webinar pages, Writing Digest platforms among others that are more interactive and innovative where they can practice and demonstrate that they can express themselves in the English language.
