  1. I was in a class with the 7th grade and students have to learn the irregular verbs so teacher started writing on the whiteboard the past tense of them. Then, teacher explained the meanings of the verbs and a girl made fun of miss katherine repeating what she were explaining but in a funny tone. Teacher noticed that and she said it was a lack of respect what the girl did so she talked to her in front of the class saying that if you do not agree with somebody, you must listen to the other person first and then you can give your personal opinion but in a respectful way. After that situation students worked in silence and copied very quickly from the whiteboard.
    This particular case called my attention because teachers are so exposed to this kind of situation and we, as a future teachers, must know how to control the situation.

  2. Every time the teacher arrives to the classroom she writes in the whiteboard what she is going to do in that period of classes. So, the students in the very first moment they see what the teacher wrote they start searching for the corresponding section in their course books. With this the teacher avoids wasting time giving the everyday commands.

    This particular case called my attention because the students knew what they were supposed to do, and they did it without making noise, not even questions. That gave me a nice impression of the teacher. I could note how the students respected her and wanted to learn from her.

  4. Once in the classroom the teacher had an activity for the students but she was ill and couldn't speak loud. Then she asked me if I could read loud the activity so that the students had to write it. They were talking each other all the time, and didn't pay me attention at first.
    I was very nervous because I felt that they could start laughing at me and I was shy. So I started reading. My voice was weak and nobody could hear what I was saying. Some students said "speak louder, please" and I realized that some of them were interested in the class and wanted to do the activity.
    Maybe that was my motivation and I started to speak louder and louder. The teacher congratulated me and I felt very proud of myself. Finally, the most of the students did the activity.

  5. I remember that when I was in VISE I workshop, there was a particular situation that called my attention. There was a girl from another section that came to see her classmates just when it was the time to leave the classroom for the break hour. We were having a little conversation with the teacher and preparing our bags to go. Then, Miss Patricia told some girls to leave the classroom, but this girl didn’t want to. The teacher told her three times to leave the place because she had to lock the doors, and the girl continued disobeying. At the fourth time, Miss Patricia looked at me very upset, and started to shout at the girl, and told her that if she didn’t leave the classroom she would call her parents and hold her in detention. Everybody felt very uncomfortable, even me. Then the girl decided to leave the classroom quietly, she didn’t look anything but the floor. Miss Patricia then said “Sorry Max, but that’s the only way an unruly child can understand your requests”. Then she locked the doors and we left the school.
    This event called my attention because of the way Miss Patricia acted and the resource she used to normalize the situation.

  6. I did my VISE I in José Francisco Vergara School, which is in Viña del Mar. Those sessions were in different courses but it was the same 8th grade. In all of them it was difficult to count people, because not every day the courses were fully attended. I was very lucky, because the guide teacher was an English one.
    One day, when we were leaving the classroom, one of the boys, stared to inculpated and threaten to one of his classmates, it was a very concerning situation, because anything could happened. So the professor tried to stop the situation in order to avoid some reckless and harmfulness actions against the boy who was under attack.
    I was deeply surprised with the reaction of the teacher, because she was too young and she could handle with that extremely and complicated situation. She never lost the control and never shouted at the “bad boy”.

  8. I remember two years ago, I was doing my “VISE I” at Diego Portales School. It is still located in Playa Ancha, here in Valparaíso. A classmate and I were designed to an English class, 5th and 6th grades, in which there were no more than 25 students, girls and boys.
    The teacher was not actually a professor of English, she studied Pedagogía General Básica con Mención en Inglés. She even told us that she didn’t like English at all.
    Most of the children came from troubled families, they had problems in their homes and with people in general, some of them did not have any family members and even, a permanent place to live. Sometimes they told us that school was a place to run off from all their problems.
    One day, my classmate and I were arriving to school. It was about 8.00 o’clock. We had to take our class observation in the 6th grade. We were outside of the classroom waiting for the teacher to enter to the classroom. We waited for her more than 30 minutes, but she never came. My partner and I had to enter to the classroom and let one of the authorities know about the absence of the teacher. The students spoke a lot; they stand up, ran around the classroom and fought between them. In order to maintain the order we had to ask for help more than once. The director and the main inspector appeared in the classroom and tried to hold the situation. The director said to the students that if they didn’t obey our instructions, they would have a negative mark in their notebooks and their representatives would be called. When he said that, students got back to their sits, listened with attention, they stopped being antsy and got in silence. Then, the director left the classroom and we stayed alone, so we took the book, wrote exercises in the board and made them do some of the unit.
    This particular experience called my attention mainly because I realised that the teacher was not as responsible as I thought at the beginning. She never gave us a call nor left us a message or something, saying that she would not go to school that day. And also because of the behaviour the students showed while their teacher was absent.

  9. This situation happened in a 7th grade a day when the teacher didn’t go to school, so at classroom arrived another teacher to replace. This class the students kept in silence and worked all class, they made every exercise on their books. They were afraid of her because she looked serious and strict, the girls even called her “the bull dog”.
    The thing is that the students of this class were always as in another world. Teacher often couldn’t work with them because they were shouting or they were speaking others things. In this class there wasn’t respect for anybody and the most of them never worked in class.
    This situation called my attention because It made me think about what is the best way to teach students.
    I had the opportunity to talk with the replacement teacher and I could see she was a person with good thoughts. She gave me a pieces of advice and told me that her way to teach was the unique that works.

  10. When I was in Vice I Workshops I had very quite students. One day they had to give us a presentation where the topic was “a restaurant”. Several of them did it in a very good way, and also using support material as a data show, poster cards, and even bringing food from their houses. The point is that we had a student that was very poor, so he couldn’t do as well as his classmates. He just talked during his presentation and at the end he started crying because his classmates shouted that his presentation was poor and deserved a bad grade. The teacher calmed them all and made them aware of the problem that their classmate had. They understood that they were very immature and apologized with their classmate.
    This called my attention because I felt very bad when that student started crying and I liked how the teacher managed to control the situation.

  12. while doing my Vise I, I recall that most of the classes functioned quite normally, and that´s what cought my attention the most. At first, I was told that this was a very difficult school, but once I got to observe the english classes, I did not agree with that at all. I think that it was because the teacher was able to handle students quite well, they all seemed to like him and respect him a lot, and that really helped to make the class work. I could tell that he was very professional and that he truly cared about the students, as sometimes he stopped the lessons to talk to them, give them advice, even in some aspects that did not concern him as an English teacher. I could tell that this class was something that all students, even the ones who were not doing so well, enjoyed.

  13. I was in my vise workshop in a primary school where the children were between 6 and 13 years old. I remember once when a student arrived at school he was crying because he had a bitter discussion with his parents before he had left home. Then I saw that none of teachers said him anything to calm him down until one of the assistants talked to him and finally she made him stop to crying.


    This situation called my attention deeply because I think in those cases the teachers have to do something immediately. In other words the teachers should be ready for cases like that.

  14. The particular event that called my attention in VISE I, it was the selfishness and discrimination of the students to their classmates. For example, in an activity where the students had to work in group, the teacher gave the following instruction: you are going to work in groups and you have to form the groups. When all the teams work were formed, the teacher and I realized that some children were without a team work. For that reason the teacher had to include these students in the groups formed. When the professor called some teams, she asked why they didn’t want to work with their classmates. The reasons were; because they were irresponsible and because some integrants of the groups had bad relations with the other students. Every time that the students had to work in groups occurred the same problem.
    This event occurs in a coeducation 6th grade in the classroom, in the subject of English.
    The event called my attention, because it was a repeated action, every time they had to do this kind of activity, the problem appeared and I couldn’t believe how a group of children could be so discriminative and selfish with their pairs.

  16. I did my VISE I in “Sagrados corazones de Jesus” school which is in Valparaiso. The session that i took was 7th grade with the English teacher Patricio Rojas.
    I remember a particular situation in the classroom, the teacher gave the activity to the students, this activity consisted in read a text and complete some missing words from it and extract all the unknown vocabulary, one of the students finished the activity first, the teacher cheked the answers and was good, so the teacher said to the student that he had to wait to his classmates to finish the activity, but the student instead of waited in his place, he started to help to his classmates with the activity given, this attitude of solidarity with his partners called my atention, because this student did it without the teacher asked him to do it and he didn’t expect a reward for it.

  17. I can remember a situation during my vise 1 course. The teacher was teaching a unit about fruits vegetables, and variety of food (this situation occurred in a fifth grade). Obviously the kids were quite noisy, and messy, so the teacher can not teach properly, because the kids were not paying attention. The situation was a little bit uncomfortable, then the teacher got an idea. He organized the kids in groups, and he gives intructions, the idea was that the kids draw, and paint diferent variety of fruit vegetables and food, from that moment the class changed, the kids have had a great time and the teacher could finish his unit.

  18. Last year in a 7th grade of the San Judas Tadeo school I was witness of a complicated situation. It was my first week in that school . I was in the break time with the english teacher , when a boy of 8th grade pushed a little boys of 5th grade away , and then the little boy took a piece of wood and started to beat him. I looked the teacher and he didn’t do anything about it. Lot of student started to get around of the figthing kids and in that moment , after 15 minutes , the principal got out of her office ,she separated the kids involve and took both to her office. The teacher that was next to me started to laughing at the situation.

    This situation caught my attetion because it was very dangerous and the teacher didn’t involve in the trouble as a educator.

  19. The students of 2nd grade of highschool had to act an scene of any series of TV as a test, so every class a group of students had to practice in front of their classmates, but there was a girl, Camila, who didn't know how to pronounce any word, and she felt very embarrased when she had to act in front of the class, so she asked me for help and I helped her, and all the students like Camila started to ask me about the pronunciation, and they told me they were afraid of asking the teacher because when somebody ask her for help she use to said But this is foolproof!

    This non pedagogical event called my attention because the teacher is supposed to teach her students instead of mocking them; furthermore she said that she doesn't matter if the students were learning or not.

  20. According to my own experience in Vise 1 I noticed an event which called my attention a lot. It was how the students show their interest in learning despite of not having a big knowledge because their teacher was sick and therefore she used to miss classes otherwise girls hardly ever have English classes

    I remembered the first time I arrived there. It was a seventh grade the girls were very surprised about me and my classmate because it was a custom for them just hang around in those hours. Quickly another teacher arrived and gave us a dialogue and then she left us with the activity. So I and my classmate began to teach them how to pronounce the words and practicing the vocabulary. Most students have never heard those words in their lives but they behaved in a enthusiastic way by asking questions and trying to pronounce the words correctly. In fact they wanted to learn but they didn’t have the attention required.

  21. It is very difficult to me to think about a relevant event, due to my experience was poor, the students did not show any interest in the class and the teacher didn’t seem to care about them.
    The strongest memory I have about that teacher was his attitude in front of the students on the 3rd grade (high school). He didn’t like them and he had no shame in let them know that they were the worst group of the school. The feeling was mutual, they show no respect and he used to put himself on their same level and argue about who was better in terms of education and social class. I took this experience as an anti-pedagogical situation, and promise myself never to do that in front of a class, I learn that if you want to be respected you have to respect them first in order to obtain a good educational environment. Some groups are very hard to teach; still I am sure that there are other ways to receive attention.

  22. When I was doing my Vise 1 at Saint Thomas School, a particular event called my attention. One day I was in the classroom and students were not paying attention to the class so the teacher got very upset and started to yell at them. The teacher spent all the class in it. Finally the teacher told them that they do not have any future because they are very lazy people and he doesn´t waste his time in teaching them.

    This event called my attention since this kind of treatment is far opposite than all things I have learned at University.

  23. I was in vise I workshop with my classmate Lorena López, we were with girls from 8th grade at Republica del Uruguay school, which is a public school.
    One they we was with the girls waiting for mathematic's teacher, whose also were the principal teacher of this class.
    She didn't delay, but when she arrived, the first thing that she did was called their attention, but in a bad way.
    She started to yell them and she said to them that they were dirty and stinky girls, just because there were rubish on the floor.
    Girls didn't get on well with this particular teacher, so they did't listened to her and they yell at her back, they were all against the teacher.
    They felt attacked so they defended themselves. For a couple of minutes it was a very strong argument between girls and the teacher,
    it seemed that we weren't there.It was a very uncomfortable situation.

  24. I did Vise I in "Liceo Maria Luisa Bombal". At that time, there was a female teacher that had not affinity with the students, and therefore students didn't respect her. When the students had a bad behaviour she just ignored them and , if it was too much, she told them to go out of the classroom. the students were very disrespectful and didn't pay attention to the class. But once the teacher got ill and I had to give classes and all students suddenly changed their behavior into a good one. I used to talk the students and paid attention to what they had to say.
    This is the event that most called my attention.

  25. I did VISE I at Saint Thomas School, there were several occasinos where a student was making noise, and interrupting the class, and after several calls of attention, he wouldn't calm down. The teacher tried to handle the situation the best he could. Instead of interrupting the class, to make him shut up, he talked to him after class, asked him to stop doing that, explaining that he was interrupting the lesson, and making it harder for his classmates to learn. The kid understood immediately, and the next class he was quiet, listening and paying attention.
    I think making decisions like these, talking to the students instead of shouting at them sometimes is the best way to go, and is a clear example of how problems should be handled not only in schools, but in everyday life.

  26. I remember one particular event when I was doing my VISE 1workshop. In a History class, there was a student that behaved quite badly, because he spent almost all his time (at least in that class) talking out loud delaying the continuity of the class. Even though the student was quite noisy, the teacher did not do anything to keep him quite. First, the teacher talked to me about the situation, and told me that the student had better skills than his classmates and he usually got bored on his classes, therefore he called his classmates attention.

    Some days later, the student started paying more attention, and it was because the teacher talked to him after the class telling him, that despite of being familiarize with the themes of the subject, he was delaying the comprehension of his classmates. We as a teacher, we should not judge our student before know them.

  27. I entered to the English class . In general the course was ver intidy;but that day the class was very quiet. I asked to one of the students, what they were working so concentrated. She told me that the teacher (she) offered to them a gift; it was a game. Even the most rebel of the students was working very hard.At the end of the class the teacher accomplish her promise and the next class students feel more motivated in studyng; most of all in mathematics class where before they were less motivated, some weeks ago.

  28. I was in the classroom of Primary Germany School with a fourth grade, here in Valparaíso. The students (ten years old average)were so quiet doing their homeworks, when the teacher said that It was the time to watch movies. But It was not exactly a movie, he referred to an Astronomy documental. And then, he connected the hardware, the film started and all the kids shouted alloud telling me what exactly would happen on that recording. This, due to they had watched It at least twice. So they already had all this knowledge inside their minds.

    The teacher explained to me that every thursday the students watched educatives videos. For this reason this particular event called my attention. Because children generally have a clear memory ability. Thus, this should be the focus on fixing Education. If the classes were more creative at this age, Children would develop their different potentials in a better way.

  29. It was just another school break in a Monday morning, the yard was completely full of students and they were all having fun, playing around and of course, making a lot of noice.
    On the otrher hand I was sit inside the class room finishing my notes. I decided to go out to the yard to watch the kids playing.
    Standing on the yard I saw two kids about ten years of age; they catch my atention mainly because they were having an argument, they didnt realised I was watching them; sudenly one of the two students kicks the other one violentely, just one second later they were having a fight. I run to them and I tried to separate them, another teacher join me and try to separate them too, while he was doing this he received a punch on his face.
    Finally we could separate them and stoped the fight; after that the two children were taken to the school principal office.

    That particular event make me realised about the responzabilityes about being a scholl teacher and the risks that involves this job, also to remind me that always you have to be ready to live stressfull situations at the school.

  30. There was a specific event that called my attention last year when I did ViCE I at Esperanza School in Quilpué. It was in the 7º grade, children didn´t pay attention to the teacher in the classroom, most of them never listen to the teacher, they always was laughing and talking, they really didn´t matter about the teacher said. I hated this situation because I don´t want that my pupils take that kind of behavior when I explain something in the classroom.

  32. I did my first VISE in Guillermo Rivera High school, in a 2nd, 3rd and 4th grade of high school.

    The event that called my attention was one that happened in an English class made in the 4th grade.

    The teacher asked to the students that they had to search a song in English, and then they had to show and sing it in front of the class. After that they had to make a workship related to the song.
    This assignment had to be worked in groups of 4 people.

    This activity called my attention because this assignment included the work in groups, the use of English and the pronunciation.

    I think that is a very good idea to do this kind of activity in the future because you can join a lot of things related with the use of English in just one activity.

    (Miss Isabel no se porque me sale el nombre de Franchesca lopez godoy .)

    Last year I was witness of a particular situation at school I was attending.Everything started with the school's anniversary approach.We were ( teacher and I) in the classroom and the girls asked to the teacher if they could do a perfomance for the anniversary , but he answered that they couldn't because all the events for that day were ready.

    In that moment the girls didn't agree about what the teacher said and the discussion began.It Was a very uncomfortable situation ,I didin't know what to do, because even the teacher couldn't control them and was a really disaster.

    That particular event make me realised that to be a teacher is not so easy like I thought, it is a complicated mision and we have to be prepared for everything.

    Last year I was very scared because I had to do my VISE I with secondary students. I remember that I met them the second day. I was nervous because the teacher who helped me didn't say nothing to me about the behavior of the students.
    When I came to the classroom I was really sorprised because they were not like I thought they were. Everyone payed attention to the teacher and they followed the instructions.
    They were good students all the semester.
    I learned that we (as a teacher) have all the tools to make disciplined students, this is not impossible.

  36. It happened when the teacher left me alone in the classroom. Suddenly, two girls started to attack each other and hers friends also started to fight. In this moment I was shocked, I tried to separate them but it was almost impossible because there were many girls involved. They were fighting because a boy. The girls were just 12 years old.
    It called my attention because the teacher left me as the responsible person in charge of the class however I was not prepared for something so serious.

  37. Last year at Saint Thomas College I was witness of a difficult situation. Really, it was happening every Friday when the students of 1st grade highschool had English classes. When the teacher and I entenred into the classroom, the pupils used to start making noise. They really didn’t want us there and obviously they didn’t want that the class began. Sometimes the teacher could calm them down telling jokes, but when he tried to write something in the whiteboard, they began to make noise again: shouting, laughing and complaining about everything. This event called particularly my attention, because in the future this one will be a common situation and we will have to be able to handle it.

    I did my Vise I in a public primary school. I remember that the week of September eighteenth the girls decorated the classroom with loads of things in red, white and blue. They also pasted a lot of balloon on the wall to make a Chilean flag. Therefore, teacher that was in the class and all the people that got in the room congratulated them including the principal. All of them said that it was original and beautiful.

    This situation called my attention because I am quite sure that teachers have to encourage children to do things whatever they were.

  39. One of the thing that called my atention during Vise I, was the lack of resources that the English teacher had. I remeber once when he wanted to do a listening activity, but he couldn't because the radio was being used by the other English teacher, so he had to change all the activities that he had planed for the class. he told me it was very frustrating, but that there was nothing he could do, apart from try to keep going on with the class. also, there were no computer for the students, so all the ideas that the teacher had in order to make the class a little bit more interactive and fun were no possible due to the lack of resources.

  40. It was in Valparaìso. I was in the classroom. It was in the morning. The teacher was explaining some instructions about an assignment. There were 28 students. None of them were paying attention. One student arrived late and took the attention of the majority. He entered to the classroom. The teacher told him that he had to greet before enter. He raised his hand showing that he was not interested in what she said. The rest on the students started to laugh and the teacher threw the classes-book on her table. Everyone was shocked, included me. After that she read all the notes the student had.
    It called my attention because I would never do something as pedagogically unsound as that. She just acted and did not realize that the boy needed attention.

  41. One particular situation that call my attention during VISE I was when I was with the teacher checking a homework that she gave to their students last week. In that moment a girl told us that she didn't do her homework and that she was not interested in the subject. The teacher started to talk with her and told her that she need to be more responsible, also that she can´t be like that all the time and that she has to grow up, because nothing is that simple. In that moment the girl started to cry and shiver, it was a kind of attack. All her classmates were really worried and the teacher didn't understand what was going on. Someone called for help and two teacher appeared and took her out. The teacher was really shocked, she told me that she didn't know what to do in that situation.

    This situation called my attention because sometimes we will have to face difficulties with some children and we have to prepared to know how to react in each situation.

  42. One day i was looking the children playing table-tenis in the yard. Suddenly two of them started to fight, because one of them didn’t want to pass the paddle to the other children. Then a teacher saw that and call the two students and said to them: stop fighting or you gone to be suspended. After that the students calmed down and they went to play again. That happened in a San Judas Tadeo School and the students were 11 years and the another 12 years.

  43. I remember a particular situation that called my attention when I was in class with the 4th grade of elementary school of Escuela Alemania. The teacher was talking to the students about chilean Fauna and Flora.Suddenly a student rose his hand . That student was Camilo Barrientos who had a question about cactus. He asked if cactus changes their spines as a tree change their leaves in autumn. All the children in the class started to laugh and the teacher shouted at them strongly saying: STOP LAUGHING!. BE QUIET, QUIET! And after that he said that he didn’t know the answer, despite that, he congratulated Camilo for his excellent question. The teacher gave Camilo an extra point for the next test.

  44. My name is Leonor Tulleres, I had VISE I at Colegio COGGZAI, Belloto. The class I attended was the 6th grade. Children’s ages were from 9 to 12.
    I remember a particular event. It happened in the classroom. The students were yelling and playing around when the teacher entered the room. Then she said “silencio”, but the children continued to behave in the same way. The teacher raised her voice and said “¡Cállense!”. She dropped the book on the table in order to make a loud noise. Children stopped what they were doing and stayed in silence.
    This event called my attention because of the way that children were acting, and also the reaction of the teacher.

  45. The pedagogical event that I would like to desbribe is that I was with the teacher in the 4th. Grade of the secondary level and I was really excited because everyone payed attention to something I had to say.
    I remember it was my last day in the school, and the teacher asked me to do a presentation on phonetics, or at least a basic intruduction to the english sounds. I had no problem doing the presentation, actually I was anxious because I wanted to do well on it. As a matter of fact while I was doing my presentation a big majority was paying attetion and I was able to figure this out thanks to the questions they were asking me. Before I could finish the bell rang and it was time to leave the classroom, but they kept on asking me questions, so I felt very happy, because I never thought that they would show that kind of interest. They also clapped at the end of the class so after I finished I felt a sense of acomplishment and that was very rewarding.

    I can remember that last year during Vise 1 I was attending to watch the classes and there were 3 girls that used to talk and talk interrupting the class, they would laugh loudly for everything and it was really annoying. During one of the many conversations that we had with the teacher we talked about those girls and she (the teacher) said that she had tried everything to keep order inside the classroom, but nothing worked with the girls, and I asked her why not to separate them so they wouldn’t talk anymore, but she answered me that the school wanted to get the students used to work in groups as teams, so she had to deal with that problem because of the school vision.

    This called my attention because sometimes the school brings the conditions so the students can do whatever they want and the teacher receives the consequences of that.

  47. The pedagogical event happened in a kindergarten because i did my first Vise in a previous university course: Educaciòn Pravularia.

    The five years old, Nicolas was a student from this nursery school. He was really cute but he was always unconcentrated, as a result, he never paid attention to classes and the professor would always punish him because of this problem.

    A weekday, I was observing and of course helping to students and Nicolas was not paying attention to us and the teacher decided to punished and sent him off.

    This pedagogical event called my attention because of the professor`s behaviour. It was not necessary to sent him off, maybe the child had some problem of concentration or perhaps he was in trouble and she did not ask for it to resolve the problem

  48. Once i was correcting some tests while the teacher were checking some homeworks. She tried to make a cue, but some students tried to be first. So two students started a fight. The teacher didn't know what to do, and she get nervous, i tried to calm the situation, but the two boys were really angry.
    I had to go with the two boys at the Directo's Office and tell her what happen. The teacher were like in a shock.

    This called my attention because sometimes teacher involves in big troubles and they don't know what to do. It's really complicated to make a good decision in a extreme situation.
