The most important skills I have gained from this course are in regards to lesson planning. I had not dealt with lesson planning before, and it’s been very helpful and elucidating to think through the ESA model and build lesson-planning skills. They are always the most time-consuming part of the work that I have had to put in on Unit worksheets, but I feel that I am leaving this tesol course with much more confidence that I can adequately plan a lesson – of course, what happens in the classroom itself can be a whole other matter, but that’s what flexibility, enthusiasm, and gaining experience are for. I now have more skills to come into a lesson prepared, with ways to engage in self-reflection for growth and to anticipate and evaluate students’ difficulties. I am planning on incorporating this into my work this coming year, when I will be applying to teach through the EPIK program in a South korea public school.
