To start let me tell you that this time not everything was nice for me because since the very beginning students were not motivated with the class. Almost at the end, I realized they had a phonetic exam, so that they were not willing to participate in the class.  After the warm up activity, I gave them some exercises about relative clauses which were kind of difficult; at that moment, I could notice they were not doing their best because they were wasting time and doing something else. The only thing I think they enjoyed was the speaking activity because I observed they were talking and sharing ideas about the statements I gave to them. After this, we continued with more practice bout the topic, and at the end I finished working on the book with some exercises and a listening activity too. During the feedback the teacher explained to me that not all the classes are the same that you have to deal with something different every class, so you must be prepared with it. He also gave me some recommendation for next classes, which is something I am thankful because it will help me to be a better person when teaching.
