It’s my final week in school and I have to say I have loved absolutely every minute of this placement. The children have been great at making me feel welcome and not being scared of using their English. My teacher Lasse has been wonderful at how much freedom he has given us with our lessons. We have taught everyday which I was over the moon about as I wasn’t sure if that was going to be possible to have one every day. Even though most lessons were either English or PE I feel it has taught me a lot.

My
teacher asked if another girl and I would take their national tests for them. I
feel this has been one of my best learning experiences with in a classroom. I had
to take the English oral exams by getting the children to talk on a topic
either family, their house or what they did in their spare time. I was so
impressed by the standard of the English and had good fun marking it. I then
had to take there listen exams, which I felt was quite long maybe 25 minutes. The
children all preformed at very high standard. I found it a challenge to mark
the work as I knew the importance of it and that I had to really take my time
and make it sure I didn’t make a mistake. Finally I had to mark their written exam
where the children had to write a short story on what the world would be like
in 2112. The stories made me laugh a lot and I really enjoyed getting to see
the creative side of the children.

Me
and Lasse spoke after and told us how great it was too have us in the class as
the children could have no better experience with English. I have to say I felt
very proud of the job I down and I can’t wait to come back and visit Lasse
again. We are going to keep in contact by email.

I
had a lot of fun with the class but it was the learning experience that I really
enjoyed and I appreciate Lasse a lot for letting take the exams as it’s not
really something I get to do when I am home.
Until next time Hej
