STRENGTHS
Effective monitoring
Your grammar knowledge is very impressive.
Your English is very good.
You elicit well (although there are some exceptions to this below)
Effective use of technology
Effective use of the whiteboard. Clear information, labelling of grammar points etc
Very logically staged (despite some incorrect stage names see below)
Effective monitoring
Indications of time to the students eg One more minute
Varied feedback on answers techniques eg students write on the board.
WEAKNESSES
When you elicit something and dont get an answer, dont give the answer immediately. Otherwise its
in danger of becoming a conversation with yourself
Before asking students to read, always set a reading task.
Beware of typos in your lesson plan eg gramar, ellicits stuent posible nesseary etc
Try a guided discovery approach to presenting grammar.
Avoid tapping on the board.
Dont ask if students understand (Do you get it? Right? Easy? You know award?) Find a way to see
if they have understood.
Occasionally, your questions are a bit vague eg What is this?

Stage 2
2a) You have listed both strengths and weaknesses in your action plan. You have also provided a rationale for
their selection eg I need to change my concept checking from vague questions, into more specific questions
devised to elicit students understanding.
2b) You have selected procedures to use to address the issues identified in 2a. For example, you say that you
are going to script questions so as to avoid vagueness. You also say you will include a flexi-stage in your lesson
plans to help solve the problem of bad timing.
2e) Your action plan is well-considered in many ways but it would have benefitted from more thought about how
to collect data which could help you to evaluate your progress in weak areas.
Stage 3
2a) you continue to recognise key strengths and weaknesses in your teaching and you are very receptive to
comments made by tutors.
2c) You have not mentioned whether including a flexi-stage helped you with your timing or whether scripting
your questions helped you to avoid asking vague questions. However, you did evaluate the effectiveness of
another of your procedures when you said about your reading I can say that they had a great impact on
improving my teaching, especially with properly staging and naming the lesson plan. These materials have also
helped improve my elicitation and feedback techniques.
2d) You havent evaluated methods for collecting data as you didnt identify any in previous stages.
2e) Once again, your action plan is well-considered but it would have benefitted from more thought about how
to collect data which could help you to evaluate your progress in weak areas.
.
Stage 4
2d) You say I was observed before LSA3 by other teachers, and they stated that my TTT time was reduced and
learners autonomy was addressed. This is the only example I can find of data gathering.
2f) You critically reflect on your teaching practices and beliefs throughout the assignment. An example in stage
four is when you say The use of peer and group correction made collaborative work more enjoyable for
learners, as learners learn from each other more than learning form their teachers, sometimes.
