I put emphasis on raising the students’ interest, forming effective strategies and developing the cooperative spirit. And I think I’ll make it. ‎ This is a period of various contents, maybe the time of one class is not enough, I need to adjust the teaching steps according to the actual situations. And in 1b. of Step3,it requires the teacher to have a large vocabulary to provide help for students. One minute in class, ten years’ hard working after class—I need to hold on to studying to improve myself.‎
