Feedback A very positive experience! I feel that this informal approach to peer observation has positive repercussions as it takes the pressure off and allows you to engage in a non-competitive atmosphere. I enjoyed it tremendously. Seeing other professionals work can only be enriching. Peer observation ….allows the teacher to do three things: to experience the lesson with the students, to watch and learn from other teachers – this includes everything from classroom management to specific activities, and thus, most importantly, to reflect on their own teaching practices, An entirely positive, productive experience.
