VI. COMMENTS
a. Strengths
William delivered an excellent, dynamic class with a variety of interesting and challenging activities. Students
are engaged and paying attention throughout. He teaches completely in Spanish, incorporating gestures, acting,
humor and images. William uses different words when students do not understand something, but does not
resort to English. He encourages the students to applaud for each other, he smiles frequently, and he conveys his
enthusiasm and approval for their contributions.
His slide presentation is outstanding for its content and visual appeal. It includes teaching points (grammar) as
well as games and conversational activities. Students are working in small groups for much of the class, and
after each activity there is some sharing or debriefing.
b. Suggestions
3
- Continue to circulate to make sure all groups are staying in the target language.
- Encourage students to stay in the classroom for the full 55 minutes (ie, use the restroom before or after
class whenever possible)
c. Summary of observation
Again, the class was outstanding. Students had opportunities for reading, writing, listening and speaking. The
atmosphere was dynamic, students were engaged, and information was presented in small bits with ample time
for practice in between.
