THE TEACHER AS A
PERSON
Presented by Group 1
A TEACHER MAY PLAY MANY ROLES, BUT EACH WILL BE AFFECTED BY THE
PERSON THAT HE IS.
MANKIND IS MORE HIGHLY INTERDEPENDENT THAN AT ANY OTHER TIME IN THE WORLD’S
HISTORY.(Jimmy E. Nations)
IN THE AGE IN WHICH WE LIVE..
AS A TEACHER..
CAN YOU FORMULATE
YOUR PHILOSOPHYAND BELIEFS
OF EDUCATION?
one should teach?
Why teach?
“My goals for my students is to make them
better than what I am
now.”-Mrs. Waperi
What to teach?
“Of course, I teach based on relevant
curriculum. But nevertheless, I also
want them to become
independent learners
somehow.”
How to teach?
“I keep my system which if it
worksI'll keep it and if doesn't, I'll drop it. Most of the
time, I'll ask my students if they'd
learned.”
ANALYSIS
Based on the interview that we had, I learned that each of us has a philosophy to adhere to and we
have notice that Mrs. Waperi is sort of progressivist and
essentialist kind. She both let her students express [theirs] as well
as manage to emphasize her subject matters for a better
change.
REFLECTION
Like Mrs. Waperi, I agree more on progressivism. A teacher
should be the one who accept the impermanence of life, and
the inevitability of changes, for the change is the only
thing that does not change.
As a future teacher, my goal for my students is to make
difference in a way that they will be able to know and adapt any circumstances
they will be encountering as they continue their endeavor
in this world.
What I really want to teach with my students is
the relevance of the academic needs of every
students to prepare themselves not for the
adult life but how to deal life for today.
Perhaps, I would let them learn by doing. More on
application method.
I've come up to many realizations. I realized how
noblest the profession I choose, how big
responsibilities I have in the future, as a future educator.
Besides, that's what being a progressivist really means.
Educator
The future brightenswith each lesson
Each smile, lengthenEach goal will reach.
That’s what an educator,Really means.
‘ ’You are a teacher. What you say, what you do, how are you to your students, your
colleagues speaks abundantly..
EXPLORE WAYS TO CREATE A MORE POSSITIVE CLASSROOM ENVIRONMENT BY MAINTAINING
CAREFUL DILIGENCE OVER THE CONTENTS OF OUR LIVES.”
