I had the privilege of sitting in on Ryan Flemming's level four speaking class. Because this was nearing the last day of session, the students were preparing their final presentations. However, this was a good opportunity to see how Mr. Flemming was able to be an aid to the students' presentations.
He began the class with a list of the classes final assignments and guidelines for the presentation.
He explained that the speech would be a Pechat Kucha, and reiterated the rules for presenting. I was impressed how He would sit down at a table with the students and discuss these with them instead of standing and lecturing. They worked with him and responded accordingly to His style of teaching.
Following the explanation, He led the students into the computer lab where they began crafting their PowerPoint presentations. During this time, He would shadow the students, monitor their progress, and offer help where He saw needed. He did a great job making sure the students were getting sidetracked, and helped them perfect their presentations. From experience, Pechatkucha presentations take a lot of practice and precision to execute correctly, and I feel that Mr. Flemming did an excellent job in helping the students be successful.
