My teaching experience has been with teenagers between the ages of 13 and 18. How do I assess their learning? They are many methods of measuring their language learning. One, in particular, is asking the students what they think about the class and the instructor.
Spanish I Class 2017-2018
"I enjoy Spanish I class because this class teaches me new things everyday and I also enjoy the teacher. A day without Spanish would make me upset because I love the class. I feel we all can be ourselves here. Spanish will also help me in the future and allow me to talk with friends in another language." 11th Grade
"What I like about Spanish 1 is that the teacher is always so nice. She is always so positive. She loves to teach our class. She is willing to do anything and everything to get us to learn what we need to learn. She is always so patient with us and slow to anger." 11th Grade
"I like this class when we do activities, learning by playing games with cards we get to interact with our fellow classmates and which makes us grow closer together. I like how Miss Wamack teaches, I think I learned a lot." 11th Grade
"I like this class because I have a nice teacher. She teaches us by telling us what to do about the verbs ending in ar, er, and ir." 11th Grade
Spanish II Class 2017-2018
"I find I learn the most when we do work with Quizlet. I learn best from the repetition of the learning section on Quizlet. I also like the videos we watch." 12th Grade
"I like learning vocab. Vocab is easier for me to pick up on. I also like doing activities with our lesson – like the time we did the video with the moving and exercising. I like Quizlet, I think it helps me learn vocab better. I also love the Karaoke singing in Spanish is the best! I love the Spanish language so I like learning here." 12th Grade
"I enjoy this class because it teaches us a different language. SMI enjoy this class because it teaches us a different language." 12th Grade
"I know this class has helped me with some of the technicalities such as the verb endings, because otherwise I would’ve never figured them out. It’s helped me learn lots of new words as well." 12th Grade
"I love what we did today – writing what we hear. Quizlet actually gets it in my brain. I think I’m learning." 12th Grade
