My Reflections/Insights
Based on the teachers program and your observations,
1. Would you consider teaching as a full time job? Why? Why not?

25
 Yes, while on observation, I see myself working as full time teacher because as
one of them needs passion and enthusiasm for teaching. Teaching learning
experience doesn’t only happen in the four corners of the classroom. It could
happen anytime, anywhere in which the student’s needs you.

2. Are the conditions in the classroom conducive to the welfare of both the
learners and teacher? How will you improve on it?

Yes, it is conducive to learning for both teacher and students because of the
school environment. The physical environment of the classroom make the teaching
learning process attainable in a peaceful situation.

3. After closely observing the teacher in the school setting, are you motivated to
continue on becoming a teacher? What in the teachers practices inspire you
to become a professional teacher?

Yes, absolutely! Becoming a teacher is a hard vocation, I should be manifest

positive virtues and attitudes to touch the heart of my students, teach their minds to
do work and transforms their lives by making myself as their role model.

4. How can I improve the school setting that I have observed when I become a
teacher?

a. Classroom Arrangement
I think there is need to renovate the chairs in order for students relaxation and
comfortable for discussion.

b. Bulletin Board Display

I should make it more colorful and attractive to make the display livelier for the
learners.

c. School Playground
Need to trim the grasses is very important, provide benches and drinking water
facility.
