I believe that every
child needs to educate and undergo a process of discipline in able to survive
living in this world. A teacher must recognized first how her job affects the
child, the community and the future generation of the society – that teaching is
a vocation, a mission and a profession.
I believe that every
child who goes in school deserve to be given the right education that a
teacher can give. Supplying intellectual activities and opportunities for them to
learn and develop their skills and talents. I believe that every child should
be respected and be talked like adults but cared like a fragile vase. Children
are like miniature adults, they should learn how to talk and speak words
accurately and not baby talk them since they are still young and their brain
is like a sponge that absorb whatever information they get from adults they
trust. In able to teach them the right one, a teacher must do, act and say
what is right for they saw their teacher as their model.
I believe that children’s suggestions must be
listened and heard to have an open and equal learning environment for both teacher and children. Teaching is a continuous learning and it evolves
regularly, the teacher must seek and open for new learning and information that
the society is giving. Flexible, approachable, patient and open minded are the
attributes that will really help a teacher in adopting changes in her classroom
and society. In resolving conflicts in the class and setting up rules, children
must be part of it since the policies are for them and it will be easy for them
to remember the rules if they are the once who made and agreed on it.
Children must not be forced nor threatened for
learning because they have different pace of acquiring knowledge; the interests
of the pupil must be the center for learning. Every individual is unique in
different ways, we have our own likes and dislikes and we have our own reasons
why and so as well as when a child is learning, they have their own way of
learning best and so they should not be forced if they are not ready to learn
something because it will just be wasted. It will not strongly remain in their heads
what the teacher have taught on them if they are not ready and interested to
learn. Patience is working best in this situation. Wait for the child to be
ready to listen and learn and expect effective learning from it.
Pupil’s outputs should be evaluated well through setting criteria and for giving well assessed questionnaires and examinations to give justice on their efforts in listening and studying their lessons. Letting the children know your standard is also important so that they know how you will grade them and know what they will do. Having appropriate strategies in discussion is also important so that the pupils will have a better understanding about the topic. Providing tactile materials rather than providing black and white pictures in the discussion will make the learning more real since the child will not have a hard time in imagining the things that the teacher is describing.
A teacher must be a
good role model of positivity, good morals and has the unbeatable energy when
discussing her lessons. Teaching good values to the children is also important
so that they will have grounds in doing what is good and right for them and for
everybody. Producing a student that is intelligent with good values is what the
most fulfilling for teachers. A teacher must not forget that children saw them
as their knight in the shining armor aside from their parents and there are
times that they tend to believe and take the side of their teachers rather than
their parents so it only shows that teachers has a great impact on the lives of
his/her children. A teacher must be cautious on his/her actions because the
young ones might do what she/he sees regardless if it is wrong.
I believe that a teacher must always be a
teacher whether inside or outside of the school; she keeps on teaching,
inspiring and guiding one’s life to a brighter side of living through his/her
actions and words and with this a teacher will never fails the experience of
his/her students every single day.
