Teaching Assessment

Name: RVQ
Date and time: October 31, 2008
Assess yourself in terms of:
·         Personality of teaching
·         Strategies used by teachers
o   Relationship with students
o   Relationship with superiors
o   Others in the community
·         Skills in making lesson plans
·         Questioning techniques
As a Bachelor of Arts in Language and Literature 4th year major student, I was exposed to several practices which include making of lesson plans, Demo teachings and classroom observations in and outside of the University.
In this manner there are problems and difficulties encountered along the way, a greater patience I discovered in myself. I can therefore understand because I usually look on the positive side rather in the negative aspects of the matter.
I believe that this attitude towards teaching is very useful to be able to go with the students. Strategies are also as important as how the deliver his/her lessons, I the students find the teacher’s strategies working the goal for learning is successful.
The teacher’s relationship with the students would somehow indicate the firmness of their trust to the teacher who delivers the lesson. If the students find the teacher approachable enough and friendly, the tendency would be a freer communications for clarifications, questions and             .
This would eventually help students understand the lesson, I find myself friendly and approachable too with my students so I believe that I can handle classes like this later on. Superiors in any institution especially in an academic institutions demand respect from the inferiors like teachers and students especially. This is so because respect is one great thing they teach with students and to be able to do this they must have to show it themselves.
Showing of respect even to the least, to the poorest and to the youngest is one indication of how others would respect you as an Educator. Every teacher is entitled to prepare many lessons plans as she/he is required to compel with the need of her/his students. The efficiency of a teacher to do this is very essential because almost every night a teacher just like the students should be must make lesson plans to prepare for the next day activities. This is not an easy task though but once you love doing and you give yourself to the needs of yoyr students then you’ll find it an enjoyable thing to do.
        Making lesson plans for me is now an easy thing to do, as a teacher I need to know the lessons my students should have everyday. I have to plan them carefully so that at the end of that particular lesson there must be the learning. I can say that I am efficient in doing lesson plans because I experience preparing for it in just a whole night and even for just a couple of hours.
        Questioning techniques of teachers are truly essential in all classrooms that learning is taking place. This is because this would help teachers find their students in a genuine and spoken way. The teacher would therefore be able to assess his/her students, what they need and how far they have gone through the lesson discussed.
Learning Feedback

        Discuss what major learning you have gotten from the class?

The whole semester is in fact too short to learn everything about the craft of teaching.  Why because this profession demands a number of observation, a wide reading, a many interactions with the students and one of the greatest reasons is that teaching is lifetime learning. Everyday there are many things to learn, and the whole day is quite not enough to learn everything that day teaches.        Luckily, as an ABLL4 student I was given the chance to learn something out of the so many. These major learning are the basic, the very foundation about teaching and because of this I believe that I’ll be able
