Canterbury tales – going back
The last day in Canterbury. There are opinions, impressions and ideas exchanged , some emotions revealed… A goodbye day.
As for myself, I was thinking about some sort of a summary, first conclusions from the time I have spent at Pilgrims and decided to share with you the tips from the Pilgrims staff which I remembered and liked best.
Here they are:
1. Whatever you do [in the classroom], you should have a good reason to do that. (Silvia)
2. If you don’t take risks, you won’t gain. (Silvia)
3. Good reading is critical. (Mario)
4. If you’re not a leader, you’re a follower. (Chaz)
5. The teacher’s red pen is not an addressee [of a piece of writing]. (Mario)
6. Spoonfeeding [your students] is not always best. (Silvia)
7. Go beyomd the fact! (Silvia)
and, last but not least:
8. If you have no problems, you’re not challenged to look for a solution :) (Silvia)
But, I suppose we are going to have lots of time to talk about it very soon :)
See you in gv :)
