My second class observation was of a level 2 speaking class. The students were instructed to give a short presentation on their partners previous to class, so the beginning of class was a ten minute practice for the presentation. They were to talk about their partners using the simple present tense. When presentations began, the students were not aloud to read their presentations. The students stood in front of the class and were given a lot of encouragement. After all of the presentations, students were to edit their speeches with teacher help. The professor walked around the class and then wrote common mistakes on the board (for example, to wash --> washes instead of washs). Feedback was then handed out from the presentations.
