She had a good relationship with her Overall, I think Reem’s lesson was good,
students, she also had very creative she improved very well since her first
activities that assisted the student’s lesson. The only thing that she might
understanding. Her lesson plan was need to improve is her grammar and
well written and, in enough details, pronunciation
even for another teacher to teach with
no problem.

This is my second time doing a peer observation, and it was a very helpful thing to
do. I was very excited to see how Reem developed since the last time I observed
her, and she was very confident this time and excited to be observed for the first
time by out MCT. I was so proud of Reem and could not wait to share my feedback
with her, she was pleased with my assessment and happy that her lesson was
successful. It was a great experience and I wish Reem all the best in her future
career as a teacher.
