R3 evaluation

WOW what a learning curve we have been on! I have learnt a great deal both on myself as a teacher and about the students I take. It has been a wonderful opportunity to help these students to become more confident readers and speakers.
I feel that I have developed significant skills in reciprocal teaching and this has lead to my improved questioning skills. Teaching the students how to run a session and handing over the 'teaching' to them has proved to be very powerful. They enjoy the challenge of questioning each other and locating the answers.
The support we have received from each other and the TE's has been invaluable. Being able to ask questions of each other in a non-threatening environment and having the knowledge of the TE's to guide us has has been beneficial.
I have learnt a great deal and feel that I am ready to make a difference with a new group next year!
