“It’s great to be a sensei”

I. My Accomplishment

          I can feel that my students love me, maybe because I am a kind teacher to them. For more than 20 lessons that I had taught to them, they were already used on how I deliver my lessons and also the strategies that I am integrating every time I execute a particular lesson. My style, the way I talk, the way I move marks my identity as a teacher. For now, I am just on my way of experiencing what a teacher is and what a teacher does. It is great to be a sensei of the students.

II. My Significant Experience

          I did not expect that my cooperating teacher will share her food to me. We ate together at their faculty office, a place for every teacher. At that, time I was very conscious because all of the teacher in 4^th year level where there taking also their snacks. But all in all, it was such an honor to be with her sharing foods together, telling her stories to me and telling also my stories to her. Somehow, she was a nice cooperating teacher to me. She always gives some advices towards developing me as a better teacher. She reminds me of what are the things that I must have to do in gaining some qualities of a teacher. These things helped me a lot because I can see that somehow I am improving myself. This was a significant experience to me because I enjoyed it a lot.

III. My Insights

          In our seminar which is entitled “The Heart of Teaching” made me realized and learned something. The heart of teaching was full of virtues such as compassion, responsible, constant, gentle, tolerant, faithful, honest, dignified, enthusiastic, humility and respectful. I want to apply these things for I know that this is my profession which involves a lot of things which are the different virtues. I was glad that these things are introduced to me. Therefore I will engage myself to these virtues.

IV. Problems

          I was not aware that I had no money inside my pocket when I entered the grocery to buy what I need. When I am about to pay at the cashier, I was surprised that my money is not enough to pay my expenses, so I need to get 3 pesos in my fair that I had reserve a while ago. So my problem now is I have no money for my fare to go home.

V. Solutions

          I need to contact my friend because I need to borrow 2 pesos from her by texting her so that I can go home, if not, then I will just going to walk. I was fortunate enough because she replied. Maybe I was not able to go home without her. I am really thankful to her.

VI. My goal for next week

 I need also to complete and comply with my other requirements which are the SF 1- SF 5 so that at least it will lessen my problems in life. Somehow this will make my life easy and free.
