I’ve recently finished my practice at school. During this period I’ve got the experience of teaching the 11-grade students. Hence, one of the main difficulties was to make pupils do something, because they took me as their peer and didn’t see the necessity to listen to me as a teacher.
I don’t think that the foreign-language teaching at school 19 is ineffective. Teachers of this school try to make their lessons effective as possible. Especially I approve the using of Interprises and CD-discs. However, I suppose that students need more interactive methods of studying and more freedom, which support their individuality (it concerns the high classes). Besides, I would like to change the topics of lessons in the first semester. Such themes repeat from year to year and annoy the students. For me it’s rather boring to speak about on and the same thing year after year (here I mean the topic “School” and everything concerns it). Moreover, it would be great to use at the lessons the Internet, presentations and so on, but here we face with the lack of technical equipment. And one more thing, which I dislike at school. It’s the lack of time and therefore the race for the curriculum.
