TESL 0100 - Fundamentals of TESL - Visualizing my Classroom

As I imagine my future classroom there are 5 things I envision: 

1. Diversity - I will probably have a wide range of cultures and needs in my 
classroom, I will need to be flexible and aware.

2. Technology - Technological literacy is important in Canada today. EdTech can 
be used as a multi-purpose educational tool. 

3. Group Work and Hands-up Activity - Collaboration between students creates powerful
 learning opportunities and hands-on activities make the lesson memorable. 

4. Engaging with my students on a personal level - Education built on a trusting and
 positive relationship with the educator is key.

5. Joyful, supportive community - Classrooms are communities! We all want to feel 
safe to be ourselves and have a little fun along the way :)
