  1. Hi everyone jesus the 80 83 to 5 teaching adults assignment, one video introduction
  2. uh
  3. tada cassie on. Oh
  4. let's get started.
  5. My name is Castano. I am originally from brazil.
  6. I've lived in the UK for a while
  7. and I came over to Canada six years ago with my wife and my son.
  8. I am in the final year of my B. A. In global development
  9. should graduate either this year or next
  10. and I started studying development when I was in the U. K.
  11. Had to put that on hold for a while
  12. and had a chance to take it over recently. So here I am,
  13. Teaching experience is limited to what I've taught my son over the last 12 years.
  14. I don't have any formal teaching background
  15. and the qualities
  16. I like the most from
  17. the list from the book,
  18. our humility and enthusiasm and I'm going to talk about them
  19. in a moment.
  20. Ah
  21. one thing about out of learning, I like it's also one of the suggestions prompt,
  22. what does a learning community should look like
  23. and for me is a place where collaboration, cooperation,
  24. sharing and synergy are stimulated.
  25. I really believe on that. Both for
  26. education
  27. and for life in general in a broader conception,
  28. oh
  29. I don't know whether I will be teaching professionally in the future or even
  30. as a volunteer or so,
  31. but I do think is a good skill to have
  32. and you don't mind
  33. working,
  34. doing training
  35. or even teaching
  36. if the opportunity comes across,
  37. I would certainly consider it
  38. and whether people are
  39. born or made good teachers, I guess either
  40. one could be naturally
  41. charismatic
  42. for example,
  43. while another one would have to train
  44. in order to be able to conduct a learning process. So either
  45. situation,
  46. it would be possible
  47. statements about myself
  48. have already been to the US,
  49. maybe
  50. I am younger than my wife,
  51. who knows,
  52. I've already hang gliding and real
  53. wow
  54. could be
  55. Which one is false
  56. you tell me.
  57. Alright, Part two Featuring Teacher.
  58. This is the background where my most exciting learning experience took place.
  59. This is central London, it's called piccadilly circles.
  60. This is where I stood in english for a few years.
  61. The school was
  62. this one
  63. uh is no longer in, in the places to be and across the street there is to be a pub
  64. which is also
  65. moved from
  66. that location.
  67. But we, I used to work during the day as a career which I still do these days
  68. and
  69. after in the evening we'll take the evening english course
  70. from what they're too frightened
  71. and after the class
  72. about nine p.m.
  73. We would go down the pub for
  74. one drink or two,
  75. two or 3 times a week.
  76. And that's where my
  77. learning experience happened.
  78. And the teacher I had
  79. was called Richard,
  80. he was a really nice guy, he was from Birmingham
  81. and he was very comfortable with the international
  82. students
  83. he had previously lived in
  84. in the US
  85. with his parents, his dad was called for work
  86. in the US
  87. and he had also had a, his wife was from Poland.
  88. So he was very comfortable with the international students
  89. and he had the qualities I mentioned earlier, he was very
  90. enthusiastic.
  91. Hey
  92. had the technical skills
  93. and it was always enthusiastic about teaching
  94. and he was also very humble.
  95. Used to treat us
  96. in a flat hierarchy.
  97. So he wouldn't be
  98. um,
  99. any,
  100. let's say,
  101. uh,
  102. any
  103. bossy or anything like that. He would be very,
  104. very relaxed and treat us
  105. very well.
  106. And also he was
  107. very humorous, always in a good mood,
  108. always doing jokes,
  109. having a laugh.
  110. So the
  111. ambience was really light and pleasant
  112. thanks to his personality.
  113. And that links back to the
  114. chapter two
  115. in the course,
  116. the four keys to effective teaching. Lasky
  117. is know yourself and outdoor
  118. sites. A
  119. a writer called jerry apps,
  120. which says that it is not only what the teacher knows
  121. but who the person is that makes a difference.
  122. I do agree with that
  123. personality
  124. is key
  125. for making
  126. the environment
  127. productive and, and, and welcoming to teaching experiences.
  128. So yeah,
  129. another example,
  130. we used to go to
  131. outdoors to venues. One very nice venue we attended was a gig
  132. in a coastal town called Brighton.
  133. It's about an hour away
  134. from London by train.
  135. There was a fat boys lean
  136. Gig in 2003.
  137. It was up to that date,
  138. the largest
  139. gathering
  140. outdoors gathering in the UK
  141. 230,000 people
  142. in Brighton and we were there.
  143. It was really cool.
  144. Really funny.
  145. There are lots of people
  146. being on the beach, girls, boys, whatever.
  147. Yeah, everyone,
  148. there were no there were not enough toilets so people were doing it by the beach,
  149. A lot of people
  150. and we were there
  151. and
  152. Richard
  153. was there with us
  154. and we would then talk about cultural aspects
  155. and life in general.
  156. So yeah,
  157. it was
  158. codes
  159. offer
  160. as learning opportunities away from the classroom
  161. by joining us too.
  162. Yeah. Van, it was like this.
  163. So that was a pretty good time we had. I particularly enjoyed it very much.
  164. And yeah, one note on that is,
  165. and I found
  166. the last
  167. email
  168. we exchanged
  169. Dates Back to 2003.
  170. I found it recently and I'm gonna get in touch with him and if he replies,
  171. I'm gonna send him his presentation this presentation.
  172. So
  173. we'll see.
  174. All right.
  175. I guess that's it for me.
  176. Thanks for watching my presentation
  177. and
  178. vista.
  179. Bye bye.
