Task 1: For the following questions describe as accurately as you can the type of work performed as the guide teacher assistant: 1. What kind of activity did you perform the first time your guide teacher asked for your help? How long did it take? The first activity I did as a teacher assistant was looking for a listening activity for the class. One day the teacher asked me for a listening that involved the verb To Be in past tense because they were studying that. The teacher does not know how to surf on internet that is why she asked me for help. This searching took me about an hour. At first I visited some web pages that help teachers with exercises that you can download but I realized that I needed to do something interesting for the students and I searched for a

popular song that contained the To Be in its lyrics. The student had to listen to the song and complete with the correct verb form. 2. What were the students doing before you started helping out? Who gave the instructions, you or your guide teacher? The listening activity was the first activity that they had to do at 8:15 in the morning. I thought that the teacher would give the instruction for the activity that I prepared but she told me that it would be good if the instructions were given by me, so she gave me the chance what it feels to guide a class. She gave me 45 minutes to make the activity; I gave the instruction and the students worked successfully. 3. How did the students react? Describe the atmosphere of the room and the levels of engagement in the room. The students were surprised when I told them that they had to work with a popular song. Their reaction was positive and they looked interested to work on the activity. At the beginning everybody wanted to participated, they looked fully engage with the activity but after they listened to the song one time they realized that it was more difficult that they thought. Some of the students We had to listen to the song four times, and then I had to bring some help to some students that did not understand the lyrics and the context. Finally, the students completed with the correct answers, they got the porpoise of the activity and the all of us sang the song. 4. What other assignments were asked you to do? How often?

In general I helped the students answering their question during classes. Besides I had to do to specific assignments. One of them consisted in create a table of the simple present and the past simple of the verb To Be which was given to the students. The second assignment was creating a crossword about family members as an introducing activity for the next book lesson called ‘family and friends’. 5. What activities or resources did you propose? Were they used? How effective were they? The activities and resources that I provided to the class were described in the previous questions. They were used successful. My guide teacher was grateful because of my help. 6. Were you asked to prepare any kind of special audio visual material for the required assignments? How did the student like it? The teacher does not use audio visual material at the moment nor did she ask me to prepare material like that. 7. Did your guide teacher provide feedback on your performance in the classroom? How often? How did you react? In the case of the popular song that we listened to, the teacher realized that it was very interesting. She always works with the songs that the class book provides and she never had try with popular songs. She liked the student’s interest and she talked to

them about the idea of working with popular songs in the next listening activities, the students liked her idea, I felt pretty good because I felt that my assignment was done successful. In the other cases
