Transcript:
Teacher: Paulo, you’ve been trying out some self-assessment techniques. How have things been working out?
Paulo: Good, I think. It’s been useful.
Teacher: The first thing you decided to do was the learner diary.
Paulo: Yes. At the end of each day I write everything down in my diary. I write what we do in class. Then I write about my feelings - if I enjoy activities or find them boring. This part was difficult for me.
Teacher: Why?
Paulo: I felt unable to write anything negative. Everything was “good” at first.
Teacher: But nobody needs to read your diary, Paulo. You can write anything.
Paulo: Well, a few days ago I had an awful class. It was hot, I was tired, the grammar was difficult. I wrote exactly what I thought in my diary.
Teacher: And did you reflect on this?
Paulo: Yes.
Teacher: And?
Paulo: The same thing happened a few times. I realised that it usually happened in the reading classes. One of my problems was “time”. I felt rushed.
Teacher: So what are your conclusions?
Paulo: I spoke to the teacher about it. He thought I needed to practise my reading skills to try to read faster. I don’t read much at all. So I think he had a point.
