Microteaching started today. My group went first. Aishah was the first to teach, followed by me later on. Aishah conducted the introduction and the pre-stage of the lesson plan meanwhile, I handled the while-stage and also the post-stage.
It was horrible because my panic struck out of the blue. Every little thing that I had practiced the night before backfired. I stammered and my mind went blank. I encountered with tongue slip for quite a number of times.
We had a video about the poem to show to the students. They seemed to enjoy the video. But, while I was teaching, I kept wondering whether my friends (who pretended to be my students) managed to guess our learning outcomes.
For Madam Lim made us all evaluate our friends' performance in a piece of paper and we had to guess the learning outcomes. If we managed to guess them right, it means that our friends had achieved their goals in teaching.
Unfotunately, I really got distracted by this fact that I made a lot of mistakes in delivering my speech and instructions. Moreover, I did not have the confidence to teach.
