The document summarizes the author's observations of two classes taught by teachers at a school. For the first class, the teacher Mrs. Selina Akhter, the summary notes her strong preparation, knowledge, clear voice, caring attitude, and ability to summarize lessons well. However, it notes she could improve by doing more formative assessment of students and ensuring better participation from all students. For the second class taught by Mr. Mir. Md. Sadequzzaman, the summary states he controlled the class well but was lacking in preparation, punctuality, language skills, and lesson summarization. Suggestions are made for both teachers to improve their teaching methods.

PREFACE
n March 13, we started our practice teaching in University Laboratory School and College. This was the first time I got a chance of applying my three years of knowledge of education for real. As a secondary student I took and observed secondary classes. In real world doing something is not as easy as it is said on books. The school had many problems. Teachers take classes as they like and it is hard for them to provide quality education for many reasons. The student’s age limit was 12 to 15/16. So, attracting these adolescents in traditional classes is hard job. Bearing these hard facts in mind, I’m making my class observation report. About the classes I observed, there were some teachers who had very rich experiences than me. With due respect to them I’m analyzing this as a student of education in order to learn more.
In my observation report at first I present the general description of classes. And then I present the teacher’s teaching methodologies in these segments are given bellow:
 Teachers profile
 Class Description
 Strengths of Teaching
 Weakness of Teaching
 Suggestions for further Improvement
 Notify Quality of Teaching

INTRODUCTION
.
hile taking classes, teachers have to be careful in some directions. S/he presents the lesson in the most appropriate way for the students and also needs to add his/her own methodology of teaching. According to the Herbatian teaching model, there are five steps classroom teaching.
They are-
 Preparation
 Presentation
 Generalization
 Application and
 Evaluation
I observed the classes on the basis of these steps. I enclosed some strong sides and some weak sides of the observation classes. I have also given some suggestions, which will be helpful in developing teaching standard.
W There is a wise saying that, “today’s students are the future leaders of any country or nation.” It is the teachers who work with the most important part of the nation. The young learners of school are like blank pages. It is up to us what we write on them. They will become whatever they are trained to become. Teachers have the power to smooth the way to progress than any other. Therefore it is very important for them to understand the outcome of their responsibilities

DESCRIPTION OF CLASSROOMS

The shape of the classroom is almost squire.
Windows are in the both right and left side of the class and the only door is in the left side of the class. The door is not very much spacious.
Every three students sit in a bench. Having a little distance with writing tables are equal to bench in length. There are 5 columns and 9 rows of benches in the classroom. The benches are congested. There should be more space for each student for moving frequently and easily.
: The blackboard is put in the wall of the class. It is not portable but fixed. It is in the middle of the front wall to the students. The color of the black board is all right and it is smooth to write with chalks. The duster can easily wipe out the writings in the board.
The natural lighting is adequate for the class.
There are 5 electric fans and lights in the class. The arrangement is quite adequate for the class.
The wooden chair is in the front side of the class. There is no table for teacher. The chair is quite ok, as we should use in not for a long time to sit there while teaching.
The color of the walls in the class is white but is fade. It should be brighter.
There are no other furniture except the above-mentioned writing tables and benches for students and the chair for the teacher. There should be at least one cupboard and a bulletin board in the class.

CONCLUSION
ccording to these reports I can say that, the teaching quality of University Laboratory School and College is not very good. It is their tradition to give out exact suggestions before examinations. When we took class tests some of their teachers came to us and told us to increase some number to their chosen students! Very few teachers teach properly, others have the idea that the students are bound to be bad and it would be a waste of time to try and teach them in class. As we know teaching – learning is a two way process, every teacher should try hard to make this useful. Teachers have to be sincere and honest in teaching, so that the students can learn the best. Teachers should try their best to make the class effective and joyful. I found some teachers make the physical harassment of the students! A good training would make good workers. Teachers simply cannot convince themselves for being irresponsible. Because they play the vital roles, they work with fresh minds which are about to bloom into new hopes and possibilities.
