This lesson taught me the various roles a teacher plays in the classroom, the important qualities to bring to the table, and the different stages and motivators adult and young learners have. This lesson explained the important roles a good teacher will have in the classroom. It taught me that there is more to being in the classroom than just having control and respect from the students. Learning the different roles also helps me understand that you need to be able to read every situation and know the proper time to take a role. For example, when it may be a good time to be more of an observer than a prompter or more of a tutor than a controller. Going into this lesson I was aware of qualities a teacher should have, though this lesson gave me much further insight as to why these qualities are important to have. Being enthusiastic about the lesson, but also being sensitive to the cultural differences. I also realized how important it is to be both motivational and also caring towards the students in each lesson. This lesson brought to my attention the important differences to spot between adult and young learners. Something I was very unaware of before this unit was the different levels of language knowledge, and after this lesson I am much more comfortable understanding those levels and knowing how to spot them in the classroom.
