My teaching practice



Fortunately, it has never happened to me ;) My teaching practice was great. I started teaching at secondary school number 4, which I used to attend :D My mentor was of course my ex English teacher. She said: Don't tell me you're gonna be a teaCHER!! Oh please... You will have to marry a rich man! I said: All I need is love. Only teaching and a possible man can give it to me :) If it comes to students, they were great. Intelligent, ambitious and hard-working. They told me I would be a good teacher because I have this something :) before my first lesson my parents joked that the students would put a dustbin on my head :) Fortunately, it never happened.
I also did my teaching practice at the lower secondary school. It was a bilingual Polish-German school, so the students had great language skills. They were also very smart, nice but a little bit talkative, so I had to use much energy to keep them attentive :) Once we had a lesson in the library. A lady came into the classroom and said: Excuse me, where is the teacher? I said: I am the teacher... She apologized, blushed and left :))
I still have to do my teaching practice at the primary school. I think it will be the most interesting and involving task :) I will let you know how I am doing there soon. :)

The little me :)




This is me when I was about 2 years old, so a small "dzidzia" :)I like this picture because it is so funny . I'm looking so stressed there. I must have been scared of the camera or photographer :)

The other photo shows me at the age of 5. I went cycling with my dad every Saturday :) I remember this pink BMX very well :) It was my first bike and it took me quite a while to learn how to ride it. ;)
