Teacher Presentation: The beginning of the class, students had been setting up their presentation on the class computer. The teacher was very approachable and positive which is effective for speaking classes.  The teacher also has been teaching this class very long time. Students have known him very well.

Classroom Management: Twelve classmates have seemed knowing each other very long time. They were very outspoken each other. Instructor, Angle Rios was very friendly with them. I liked his approach on the attendance. He called students, name with asking the question about what they do during the spring break.

Student participation: Students presented their passions back to back for five minutes. During the presentations some students asked questions to presenter about their passion. Presentations topics were baking, operation room, branding, sport brand; Nike, sports shoes; Sneakers, cafe, nature, golf, teaching, travel, airplanes, parks in Tallahassee, Iphone.

Feedback provided: Instructor gave feedbacks on the blackboard. He took notes consistently on the computer during the presentations without interruption.

Lesson(s) on teaching you learned: For A4 level speaking class, I will create speaking orientated projects. They will be presentations, discussion groups, and debates.
