María´s "TEN COMMANDMENTS"

Porque seguimos en contacto...
Y para todo el que lo necesite, los diez mandamientos del estudiante:

This is a list of what I expect from you in class :
1.- Be polite and respect everyone: teasing, bullying, put-downs and sarcasm are NOT allowed.
2.- Bring the materials you need every day and be ready and willing to use them.
3.- Trust me as your teacher: I've been doing this for a long time and I know what I'm doing (most of the time ;))
4.- Pay attention in class and listen carefully to my instructions - and follow them- and explanations.
5.- If you don't understand something or have doubts, ask. If you still don't understand, ask again. There are no dumb questions or dumb answers. Keep asking until you understand.
6.- Pay attention to your classmates and listen to them: you'll learn from them as much as from me (if not more).
7.- This is English class so English will be the main language. Be prepared to speak and interact with me and the other students and don't be afraid: we all make mistakes.
8.- Grammar is not as important as communication: your English is good if we understand you. But grammar is important too!
9.- Work hard and do your own homework : think about how to do it and use your notes and textbook if you need to. DO NOT COPY OTHER STUDENTS' WORK, it's a waste of time and I will know.
10.- Have fun and be happy!
