To begin with, I would like to mention the importance of building a nice learning environment, so students can have a sense of belonging to the classroom and learn in the appropriate conditions in order to make the process enjoyable for them.

I find it also crucial to create good bonds between the teacher and the students as it is clear that they are not going to learn if they do not feel comfortable with the person who is teaching, the affective filter cannot be separated from the teaching and learning process. If students feel comfortable and secure they will not be afraid of making mistakes but they will learn from them, and that is what I want in my classroom.

I always try to promote cooperative learning as I believe that it is a way in which they learn from each other, taking turns and having different roles to reach a goal as well as set the differences they may have aside.

To conclude I can say that as teachers we have to give our best to our students, we have to ensure the pleasure when it comes to learning a second language and we also need to reflect a lot about our practice after each lesson in order to rethink our performance and become each time a bit better.

My name is Florencia Menchaca, I am 23 years old and I am from Minas. I live with my parents and my sister, but I am really close with my grandparents, my aunt and uncle and my cousins; we are like a great pack and we enjoy going on holidays together.
Music is something I cannot live with, I enjoy listening to music, playing instruments (guitar, ukelele and banjo) and singing.
I started going to kinder when I was 2 years old and, from then until I was 15 I went to the same school, a school I feel like a second home (and in which I am currently working). As it is a private school I had English since I was 4, and when I left it I took private English lessons. After finishing highschool I decided to study to be a physiotherapist; I study for a year but I did not feel it was "my thing". It was then when I reflect and decided to study something I like. And, after 4 years, here I am, hoping to be a great teacher.

My philosophy of education is that it should be our goal to make every student feel part of the class, in a safe environment in which he/she can learn, participate, create, reflect and grow physically, mentally, emotionally, and socially. I want my students to feel that in my classroom they are free to make mistakes, to give their opinion, to enjoy while learning. From my experience as a student, I know exactly what kind of classroom I do not want to have.
I think it is really important to keep in mind that every student is different, it has different backgrounds, thoughts, pace, and likes; and that this has to be taken into account EVERY SINGLE DAY. Hence, I believe that is important to create a community in which they know they are all different and they can embrace their differences. I want every student to reach their full potential, and to do it in an enjoyable way.
I believe that as a teacher I have to be actualized and should never stop studying and getting informed, because "the only thing that it is constant is change".
I want to encourage the students to learn and to give their best, as well as doing it myself.
