I have been teaching English for 9 years in language centers and for 6 years at public schools. The areas of interest I have in teaching are ESL, English as an international language, Based-content Teaching. I am also fascinated by World History, especially about English-speaking and Portuguese-speaking countries.

Right now, I am looking forward to learning more about English language as well as U. S. history. Moreover, I am really looking forward to traveling to a different place.]]> 2019-07-11 20:35:22 UTC https://padlet.com/priscila7/k6spad84vtt2/wish/370902656 priscila7 https://padlet.com/priscila7/k6spad84vtt2/wish/371797361 Kahoot! is a game-based learning platform.

#2: students will be more interested in learning when teachers relate the content to their lives, for instance, when I watched Mrs. Addis' class, I noticed how students were engaged during the activities because she focused on a content regarding to their nationalities and facts that they did not know about their people. On the other hand, when I attended the German class, the teachers did not use their students' reality as an ally in order to stimulate students.

#3: it made me reflect about the way I manage my classes as well as if I am really designing them according to my students' prior knowledge/background.]]> 2019-08-06 00:15:26 UTC https://padlet.com/priscila7/k6spad84vtt2/wish/373341647 priscila7 https://padlet.com/priscila7/k6spad84vtt2/wish/373351767 To enter into a situation or begin a process or journey that is particularly strange, problematic, difficult, complex, or chaotic, especially one that becomes increasingly so as it develops or unfolds. (An allusion to Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll.)

Does it ring a bell? For example, when you go on YouTube and watch a video about pronunciation tips and 30 minutes later, after clicking on many other videos' links, you end up watching a giraffe in its habitat.

Asking our students to go down the rabbit hole can be a entertaining assignment and it will help them to find new sources for their studies and interests. ]]> 2019-08-06 01:36:24 UTC https://padlet.com/priscila7/k6spad84vtt2/wish/373351767 priscila7 https://padlet.com/priscila7/k6spad84vtt2/wish/373443331 This TV show is full of humor and criticism and it can be used in content classes for English learners.
