These two videos gave a good demonstration of what to do and what not to do during a lesson as a teacher. The first lesson was ineffective because of the attitude and behaviour of the teacher. He did not welcome students and build rapport, there was no engage phase, he did not clearly explain concepts or activities to the students, he admonished the students when they made mistakes or did not know something and used very little positive reinforcement. Overall, it seemed that because of the way the teacher approached the lesson, the students would have walked away having learned very little. In comparison, in the second lesson, the teacher was warm, welcoming, and friendly which allowed him to build rapport with the students. He clearly explained the new language point to the students using techniques such as elicitation. Activities were well demonstrated and instead of focusing on when students made a mistake, he used positive reinforcement when they did something well. Overall, the students appeared to enjoy the class and learn from it.
