It is hard to gain a full sense of everything that Mrs. Campbell does in just a few short hours however, from what I could tell she is a very competent teacher who knows how to bring a new language into effect while at the same time providing a good learning environment for her students. Judging from the two hours that I spent with the class I don't think that I would make any drastic changes if I were the teacher. Instead I can look at Mrs. Campbell and appreciate the hard work and proven techniques (sensory input, intellectual development, learner centered teaching, ect) that she uses to effectively teach the children. She is sensitive to cognitive learning principles such as automaticity, and is constantly using meaningful learning as her base. By getting the children excited about the play she also brings in the intrinsic motivation principle and has the children practice and read their parts leading to a greater strategic investment. I think that when I have ESL students in my own class the time and experience with Mrs. Campbell will be a great asset and something that I will look back on as being very beneficial in guiding me to meet the needs of those students.
