The only issue i saw was that Sara started using the board and saying ”repeat after me” witch i ussually dont apply this methods at my classes. We talked about this at the end of class so everything was perfect.

What happened (as short or as long as you like, but be specific):
We started with one student only so I thought it was going to be difficult because we where to many teachers but then 3 more learners showed up and it went great, I felt like we had too much dictation but at the end of class Jacob showed the learners a small part of a song so they had to listen and then write down the dictation.

What happened (as short or as long as you like, but be specific): I like the fact that all the learner were very dedicated to the class, they have great writing skills, all of them were ladies. We have a couple that came to the class but feel uncomfortable or felt that it wasn’t the right class for them, the male didn’t know any english and his partner was a high level. So they had to leave.
Other than that, it was great. They really like the last activity witch was a scramble game.Ben Citalán MacarioSpectatorCopy the text below and paste into a comment, then fill it out! Please do not use your last name or any learner names.

Awesome class, Ashlyn was very well prepared to tech. It was my first class as a dj having Ramin doing her gentle intervention. I just wanted to suggest Ashlyn to put me to work. As her dh I need her to tell me more things to do in order to interact with the students and assisting her on her class. At the end everything went pretty well.Ben Citalán MacarioSpectatorLesson Title:

What happened (as short or as long as you like, but be specific): The biggest class I ever been to, with more than 20 students , it was amazing having so much people interested in learning.
Mark was an excelent teacher, I saw a bit of nervousness at the beginning of the class. Then we had to move to the bigger room because we didn’t have more room. The were two assistants making sure the studens were writing correctly and pronouncing correctly. At the end we asked them to stand up and point North, East, South and East.- This reply was modified 10 years ago by Ramin Tokhi.

What happened (as short or as long as you like, but be specific):
Yeah so, Ramin didn’t gave me Alex contact information so I couldn’t call Alex and introduce myself and talk about the lesson before the class so that was a bit disorganized. When I got there I started with the Alphabet sheet and Alex started dictation. To me the way of teaching was pretty fast. We should have slow down a little bit but I feel that it was because we had a lot of materials which it was good to have lots of materials but we can go to everything in just an hour and a half. But at the end people left very happy and that’s very important. I haven’t seen that many people at Rockwood in a while.Ben Citalán MacarioSpectatorLesson Title: You better shop around

What happened (as short or as long as you like, but be specific):
Second day of class. I met the students. One guys has a hard time with pronunciation when asking “How much does this cost”. and “It costs 10.99.
He says How much does this cost is” / It costs is 10.99″. So definitely needs to work on this pronunciation and in the way to says sentences correctly. I saw that the students need to practice more how to use the word “Do and Does”. Most of them.
Good class! Mark is a very friendly teacher.Ben Citalán MacarioSpectatorLesson Title: Two Peas In A Pod

What happened (as short or as long as you like, but be specific): Not a terrible class, but being in the big room just wasn’t as fun.. they’re kind of not used to it, and a couple of learners left early – 3 in fact. 2 were hurting, and it was clear during the class.. they weren’t making it up, but in a way, this class was.. they were not loving it in the same way. The topic of 4th of July has a lot of emotion around it for newcomers, and I’m not sure the star spangled banner was my favorite choice today. Also, I was distracted tidying up other things that need tidying up. It was neat seeing several of the learners from RW that day show up in the evening, too!
