Doing this portfolio has been a very refreshing. I had the opportunity to reinforce the knowledge acquired during the semester and here some of my conclusions:
1. Andragogy is the Art of teaching Adults. We have to differenciate learners and motivate them appropiately.
2. Malcolm Knoles six assumptions are the base to teach adults. They help us to know our students and to give them what they really need.
3. I am a teacher for vocation and it does not matter that I didn't get the teacher Diploma. Teaching is an amazing opportunity to make the difference in the world and to inspire others to grow and follow their dreams.
4. I am the owner of my plans as I respect the curricula given by the gorvernment and the school where I work.
5. There are three learning theories that can help us to educate our students in a correct way. The one that is used nowadays, it the social constructivism, which tells us to involve learners in the learning process and to use their prior experience as a base for our teaching.
6. Motivation is the most important influence we can give our students. If they are motivated, they will persue their dreams and fulfill their goals.
7. The term Andragogy has grown during the years and now it is known and practiced in all areas of education. Adult education shows us how to treat our students and give them the chance to participate in their own learning process.
8. Being just a teacher now is past. We must be guides and facilitators for our students. Creative facilitators help students to grow; they motivate them to go beyond the boundaries; they inspire students and give example of determination and creativity.

9. We have to write clear objectives and have responsibility for the resources we can use. Transmit the program to your supervisor and involve your students in the plannification process.
10. Be creative with your plans. You always have to plan your classes, it is very important to follow a guide. It gives them security for their future.
11. Every person has different learning style. We must know our students' one because in that way we can focus our clases and use different methods and dynamics to offer students alternatives in their learning process.
12. You have to include technology in your planification. Advances in Technology have grown a lot and our students want us to let them think and create.
