“To teach to the stars”

I. My Accomplishment

At the very start, I was just assigned to teach one section which is the regular section. For me, both star section and regular section were just the same in terms of their preferences on the activities. Maybe the only difference is that the way they behave especially when it comes to classroom management. Regular section is noisy all the time. Moreover star section is a little bit of high perspective rather than the regular section. This is the reason why I have a fear in handling star section thinking that if I commit mistake, they are going to laugh at me and make fun of me maybe. But in the end, my notions about them were all wrong. I entered to their classroom last September 26, 2014 (Friday). It was a little bit tough but I was able to manage them and give them activities to do. They were all very active in doing their assigned task. I handled all the star section for this day. So it’s my accomplishment to teach them without having an error. I can still handle them even though some teacher said that they were all smart.

II. My Significant Experience

I did not know that my cooperating teacher will let me handle all the star section today. I did not expect it so what I did was to normally enter their classroom as if I used to enter all the time. It was an opportunity to me to have the different section for one day. I enjoyed being with them. At that time, I was able to feel that that I am really a teacher assuming that they are paying me for my job well done and an excellent service towards my students.

III. My Insights

In phonetics, there are some words that need to give emphasis like the word “salmon”. It read as salmon with letter “L” but it actually read as “samon”, silent “L”.

IV. Problem

I did not expect to have my straight teaching for one day because I was not told to do so that is why I am not prepared to have my materials with me. What am I going to do about this issue?

V. Solution

What I did was to go with the flow even though my instructional materials were not there. I just come up with plan B which is giving them an activity after I discussed the concept about getting details through information.

VI. My Goals for next week

Next week will already my rated lesson with my Supervising Instructor. I need to be brave enough to give the best that I can do, as possible as I can. All I have to do is to believe in myself in order to please my Supervising Instructor that I can really teach that I deserved to have my graduation on January.
