Teaching Reflection
In the reading part of this class, I made some wrong arrangements. For example, listening to the recording should not be arranged in the skimming section, because it makes the skimming section lose its meaning and function. In the future teaching, I will put this part in the explanation of language knowledge points, so that students can follow and read, and improve their oral ability.
