Self-assessment of my learning 

By: David Jimenez

     Teaching English to young learners seemed a little scarry to me. At the begining, I felt lost in the classroom teaching my first class, but when the days past, I felt more confident. Thanks to this experience, I have gained a lot of things. First, I learned how to manage children. Working with children is not exactly my forte becuase my patience levels with them were not too high. This leads me to my second achievement: patience. I gained a lot of patience working with children; they alwas want to know something new, ad they like to ask for things even thogh they already know those things. The third goal I achieved is to be responsible. We can not just take teaching as if it is a conversation with friend; we need to know that what we teach is going to cause an impact in our students lives.

     At the end, I can say that teaching has changed my life. I was not sure of me being a teacher, but now I know that I really enjoy teaching. I hope this experience does not end here, and I can continue molding the minds of a new generation.
