My perceptions as a teacher educator:

1)  to provide knowledge that students can bring to schools as a language teacher

* Helping students to improve their language proficiency is important (The change in my attitude to the lesson).

*I can engage my students in-classroom activities if I consider their needs and language proficiency level (The change to the subject materials).

*If the students are engaged in-classroom activities they can learn subject related materials (The change in students' engagement during the lessons).

*To make final conclusion students' overall performance test results and survey should be collected at the end of the term.
