ELT Annual Report (2008-2009) This report aims to evaluate my first year in teaching and check up the points of strength as well as the areas that need improvement. This report is based on my students’ remarks and feedback. Before embarking on displaying its findings and outcomes, I shall say that the survey I distributed among my students consists of more than twenty open questions tackling a variety of areas relevant to ELT practices:            …

Voice projection Voice pace Language clarity The use of the mother tongue Teacher’s movement inside the classroom Teacher’s handwriting Blackboard organization Transitions The presentation of new vocabulary items Homework assignment Mini-projects

 Classroom activities variability  Time management  Punctuality  Extra exercises and documents  Continuous Control  Teacher-students rapport  Parallel activities  Students’ intellectual benefits  Students’ technical , strategic, and methodological benefits  Students’ moral and discipline-related benefits  Teacher’s commitment

1. Classroom practices findings: findings: The target area

Students’ feedback I am very happy and satisfied as far as this point is concerned; nearly all students wrote that my voice is quiet audible. I also expected this result Voice projection because I was aware of it, and I often intended to speak loudly, for I believe that the audibility of my voice is surely a part of my authority as a young teacher. About 60% of the surveyed students admitted that my voice was a bit fast; the remaining 30% say that it was sometimes fast and sometimes normal. One of them specified that my voice was particularly fast during listening sections. These remarks fit my expectations: I was aware, too, that my voice Voice pace was often and particularly fast when it comes to classes with fliers and high learning abilities. I also remember that one of my fellow teachers observed this, and so did one of my students when she complained about the high speed of my voice, suggesting lowering my pace a little so that she can catch up with the lessons. As far as the clarity of my language is concerned, about 6% of my students said that it is not clear, 4.5% of them said that it depends on whether I resort Language clarity and to translation, speak in a low pace, and use appropriate presentational appropriateness techniques (in these cases my language as well as the target items seem quiet clear for them). About 19% said it is sometimes clear and sometimes not, and about 41% said it’s often clear. 29.5% said it is averagely clear. About 60% said that I rarely use it; about 30% said I often use it; about five The use of the mother students didn’t supply their opinion. One remarkable point here is that most tongue of the students advocated the use of L1 (Arabic) over L2. Teacher’s movement About 92.5% said that it is fast, active, organized, appropriate, and

purposeful, in harmony with the lessons, and it helps them understand the lessons. About 6% said it is inappropriate, random, and incomprehensible. Two students didn’t supply their answer. These results fit my expectations; I usually kept moving and acting either to achieve an objective relevant to the lesson, or to manage and control the class and maintain the classroom discipline. 77% said that it is small and not clear enough. About 23% said it is quiet clear. I admit that it is a little bit small though beautiful as some of them said. 38% said that the blackboard is not well organized; 31% said it’s averagely organized; about 29.5% said it is well organized; two students didn’t supply an answer to this point. About 76% said it is very good, appropriate and organized; about 19. 5% said it is random and inappropriate; about 4.5% said it is normal and ordinary. 62% said it is very good and appropriate; about 13% said it is difficult and vague; about 25% said it is lower than average (most of these said it is because I don’t use the other tongue-that is, translation). 44%said that that I assign them enough homework; about 44% said I sometimes do and sometimes not; three students didn’t provide their view. 65% said the project were appropriate, beneficial and good; 17% said they were not good enough, time and effort demanding; 12% didn’t provide their opinions and some of them didn’t grasp the question. 69% said they are quiet varied; about 9% said they aren’t varied; about 10% said they are averagely varied; about 13% didn’t provide heir views. 77.6% said it is well controlled; 22% said it is sometimes controlled and sometimes out of control. Two students didn’t provide their view about this point. 100% said the teacher is punctual and never missed a class. 70% said the teacher always provide extra exercises; 24% said he averagely do that; 4.5% didn’t provide their view. 59% said the tests were appropriate and fit students’ level; 25% said they were not appropriate enough for they were sometimes difficult, farfetched, and not clear. 91% said the teacher was quite respectful and nice to his students; 10.30% said the teacher was racist in the sense that he prefers some students and classes over others. 53% said they were good and important; 23.5% said they were rare, lower than average and inappropriate; 25% didn’t express their opinions. N.B.: It seems to me that most of the students didn’t understand what Parallel Activities exactly mean, so their feedbacks are somewhat out of the point. 62% said they have benefited a lot; 31% said their benefits were not enough; 9% didn’t express their views. 50% said their benefits were so good and many; 20% said they were rare and not enough; 15% didn’t express their views.

Students’ intellectual benefits Students’ technical , strategic, and methodological benefits 90% said the teacher was great and respectful as far as ethics are concerned; 7.35% Students’ moral and said their moral benefits are rare; two students didn’t express their opinions about discipline-related this point. benefits 72% said has fully kept all that he promised; 5% said that the teacher’s commitment Teacher’s is lower than average and not enough; 22% didn’t write anything about this point. commitment In addition to this, students were allowed to express their views about a) the most important teaching behavior(s) they didn’t bear, b) the most important behavior(s) they appreciated, c) their
