Self-assessment and evaluation of our own learning

By: Andrea Zaldivar

     For me this course has been really important. I think I have learned a lot of new things related to the teaching-learning processes. I really enjoyed the course because it was aimed not only for us to learn theory, but also to experience in a real teaching-learning environment. Talking about my own learning, I can say that I feel satisfy with the things that I have learned. Now, I know several things that I can apply and develop in the classroom, and I feel able to handle a real class with real students. Of course I’m conscious that there are a lot of things that I have to learn and improve, but I hope I will do it step by step and through new experiences.

     In my opinion, one of the best parts of this course has been the teaching practicum with kindergarten students. I could face the real part of teaching. It wasn’t that easy at the beginning because it was like meeting a new world, but then I started to enjoy my role as a teacher. This course gave me the opportunity to know new people, to interact with other people, and I’m really thankful because of that.
