IN THE END

conclusion

     Teaching Practice was a useful experience for me. During my teaching practice, I contributed voluntary work in school. The goal was I wanted to get involved with the school staff and students. Also I wanted to deal directly with the students at all levels. Through dialogues and discussions between teachers and school administrators about school development, school goals, problem solving and how to improve the students' skills. I gained a lot of benefits, information and knowledge also I learned many of tasks, organization and responsibilities. I think that will help me in my studies and my work in the future.
