The First Class


It all began when my friends told me about the experience that they had with teaching the students in the language bridge program. They told me that it was fun, exciting and they enjoyed it. From that point I had the dream about me teaching the students in this program, so when I woke up in the morning I decided to sign up for language bridge program. I needed some one with me so I told my colleague Amna about it and she was happy to join me. We were wondering how would we teach students when we are students in the same, we thought that teaching need skills that only teachers with high degree would have. The only way is to try.


The first week had come, Amna and I were nervous. We were waiting for the students’ arrival in the parking lot. We prepared the teaching materials, and some snacks as well. We’re supposed to have 5 students in our class, but only 3 students arrived. We took the students to the classroom.  We introduced ourselves and the students did as well. We taught the students and we did some games for them like hangman. At the end of the class we gave them the placement test to see their level in English.

After the class Amna and I were happy that we managed the class and had fun talking and teaching the students. Moreover, we couldn’t wait for the next class to see them and teaching them again.
