I Checked Barbara's Text...

First of all, both debates presented their thesis very clear to S/P *audiences. However, the first group was SM* most dynamic SM* because there was an interaction between people who were SM* disagreement that any professional can be a teacher and people who were in favor of this. These two teams showed a lot of important arguments trying to convince SM* audience which group was right. But, I think that it was lack of information about ( )*some S/P*argument that some people said, this is one of the things that have to be improved. I ( )*really think that the group which won was WW* people who were against professionals can WW*be a teacher in schools. WW*Because of, I am convinced that a teacher has to respect his or her carrier as well as doctors or lawyers do ( )*it.Unfortunately, the second group, which topic was voluntary votes, made a mistake because there WW*do not exist any team which were against this topic. For that reason, S/P*audiences had to participate in order to create a real debate; this situation was very interesting and entertaining because all of us had the opportunity to express our thoughts about it. Nevertheless, there were some people who did not had good manage of the topic, so I think that some of them needed to prepare much better their arguments in order to convince to ( )* audience that their were right finding more information about this topic. In this case, I think that any group won because it did not have enough information to support ideas.

Comment about the English Debate...

I think that both teams did a very good job. Even though, the second team had some misunderstandings at the moment to decide which part of the team was going to agree and which one was not with its topic, the second team did an interesting job. Perhaps, the first debate was developed in a more attractive way, due to that its topic had to do with our profession which is “Teaching”. Therefore, I think that the best debate was the first one. The team that won it was the one which was against "professionales teaching as teachers in schools". However, both teams were well prepared. Both teams looked for information to support their thesis.

We, as future teachers, have to take advantage of these instances to express our thoughts and feelings and look for information to support them. Thus, we could grow up in an intellectual but, at the same time, in a spiritual way.

On the other hand, what the members’ teams could have improved upon, it is their anxiety at the moment to be in front of a class and speak aloud. If we get to manage our anxiety we will be able to say everything what we would like to without forgetting any word. I know that, what I mentioned recently, sounds easy but it is not. However, we have to make an effort and try to get it, in order to be a better student now and a good teacher in the future.
