Entry # 11 - Teacher as a Role Model of Character

Finally, my final post for this semester! I want to start this blog by thanking my Field Study professor, Ma'am Darlina Formoso and my E - 4En family who reads and comments on my blogs. T'was really a great journey, from the first hour on my FS1 down to the last of FS6. I have learned a ton about the teaching profession, I also met a lot of people like principals, teachers, students, school janitors and security guards. Call me cheesy, but I really appreciate all of it, every bit of it.

Now, let's talk about being a teaching and a role model of character. Personally, I find this the most challenging because character is what builds and defines you not only as a teacher but also as a human being. There is this saying that we are the foundation of the society 'cause we handle bodies and souls inside the classroom. To be a parent is pretty hard, what more if you have 30 plus students to guide. I have a lot of realizations while writing this blog, one is that we should value time. By valuing time we will be more cautious about our words and actions. This may make or break our students.

In addition, we future teachers should always be keen and alert of our surroundings because we are always with students. Students are like living memory drives, they remember your movements, choice of words, and even habits. We should always keep in mind that we are their second parents, that we should look after them as if they are blood.

Thank you for you time reading my blogs. Stay tuned for more, cheers!

It is how the students generally behave inside the classroom. On the flip side, procedure is how the teacher executes his strategies and techniques inside the classroom, more of like the flow and step by step process. Implementing discipline inside the classroom has should have some sort of a reward or merit if they have done the task or activity well or a penalty or demerit if they have done the task wrong. This will reinforce the minds of the students to exert their very bests when doing an activity inside the classroom. Classroom management is crucial for it holds the key whether your student will actually learn something or just hear you inputs on one ear and release them to the other side. It is imperative for a teacher to have good, if not great managing skills because it is such a vital co...

Entry # 10 - Teaching as an Art

There is this age old question: Is teaching an Art or Science? Actually, they are both correct. Teaching can be art and science. In this blog, I will talk about teaching as an art and how it affect the teaching-learning process. Teaching is considered art because teachers are finding creative ways to incorporate methods and strategies in their everyday discussion. These teaching methods and strategies helps the teacher to develop a personal style in teaching. You can compare teaching styles to a chef's signature dish, it is like looking at the product but what you see is the creator. In addition, teaching enhances certain skill set through experience. The more you teach, the more you develop your skills. That is the reason why seasoned teachers are very good, because they have already mastered the content, played with different methods and strategies, and applied all their learning in the teaching learning process. They can teach without even lesson plans or textbooks. Teachi...
