My Third Week Reflection

Today, I learned that teaching is not as easy as I thought. It is not only a matter of lecturing the subjects to students, but also how to set the proper induction and closure. It also deals with how to deliver the materials in the best way by using the available means or media such as blackboard, whiteboard etc. From the observation sheet, I learned that I already have the related capabilities of a teacher but I didn't maximize it. Or in the other words, if I may say, I couldn't maximize and improve it. My observers said that I have all of the aspects but all of them are not developed or whatsoever stated in the sheet. Well, their statement alarmed me to improve my teaching capabilities (Am I already a teacher?? I didn't know why I say this.)so that I would be a better teacher. But I also found something new. My friends in the same group used a rather different approaches in teaching. May be, from the other group's point of view, we tend to be joking all times, but we definitely learned the materials. May be it soudns crazy, but this is a new way of teaching. May be we could apply it in our PPL 2. Finally, I just want to say this. God bless you all may brothers and sisters!!!!
