MY QUALITIES AS A PERSON FOR THE FUTURE TEACHING PROFESSION

I, as a human person I possess different qualities— positive as well as negative qualities in life. In relation with this program I have been taken, I assessed myself if I am qualified in this teaching career. Do I have qualities and potentials in this world of teaching? Do I really have a passion in this career? Do I really love teaching and children? FIELD STUDY 6 – On Becoming The 21st Century Teacher| 9

As I go on in this teaching program, at first I think I can do these and that… I am thinking that teaching is very simple task. But it’s a big, big, big NO… it is because everything in teaching and learning process requires time, effort, heart and mind in order to have a good and successful delivery of instruction as well as to have a good or excellent outcome. Go back to the qualities I possess that is essential in teaching, I describe myself as kind, patience, creative, calm, friendly, goal-oriented, honest, sincere, helpful and optimistic; on the other hand, there are times that I am strict, sensitive and lack of confident to myself and to my work. These nature qualities of mine are my stepping stone towards teaching profession. These can be nurture for the betterment of myself as a future educator. And as I go on to higher level (and now I am 4 th year BEEd student) I am not just nurturing myself but I am acquiring new knowledge and experiences not just to improve myself as a person but to mold me as a good educator in the future. I am glad I’ve chosen this career. Being a contributor to each and every young mind’s dream and achievement gives an unexplainable feeling to every teacher, which I am dreaming of to be one of those. Teacher portrays a lot — to the mind of flint, the teacher must be iron, and strikes sparks; to the empty pitcher, the teacher becomes a well; to the fallow mind, a planter of seeds; to the cluttered mind, a gardener to weed, shape and a space for growing; to the lens, teacher is light, and to the mind of light, a lens; to the sleeper the teacher is a wakeup call of birds at sunrise; to clay, the teacher is potter, a sculptor, and a trainer in self-shaping; to the developed mind, the teacher is colleagu, listener, a friend. To be a teacher is noblest. And I’m looking forward to be one of them in the future.

My Mentor, Ma’am Glo— a Veritable, Strict yet a Very Loving and Caring Teacher of Grade 4-Mapagmahal

FIELD STUDY 6 – On Becoming The 21st Century Teacher| 11

A good teacher can inspire hope, ignite imagination and instill A love of learning.

My Veritable, Strict yet a Very Loving and Caring Mentor For me, she is the best teacher that retains a strong memory of what it she like to be a learner has to know, You will not just love the sound of her own voice, but the impact she can have and how she used it well. She prefer story-telling to telling, and showing to explaining. She teaches students how to deliver constructive criticism and how to field the good and the bad of it elegantly. She teaches that goals are immensely important but not half as much as the enlightenment you will get on your way there. She teaches kids not just about the beauty of logic and numbers, but about the beauty of words and art and music, the bounties you may harness if you develop your intuition and a strong sense of when something feels right and wrong. She teaches how to win and lose with grace - and how to apologize fully. FIELD STUDY 6 – On Becoming The 21st Century Teacher| 12

She understands how to engage her students— in a strict yet sweet and heartwarming manner. She always pushes and encourages students to do their best while to learn and perform given tasks. She viewed every child not as an empty bottled to be filled but as a candle to be lit. Her teaching style is a wonderful trait that makes her unique, respectful and loved by all. I adore her very much and I learn much from her, I inspired to be like her someday on how she teach, handle and love her pupils. I salute you Ma’am for being such a molder of those little minds and future professionals. You’re a great artist in molding human mind and spirit! I am glad that I meet a teacher like you…
