Teaching Practice at MinSCAT Laboratory High School Calapan City Campus.

Teaching Practice at  MinSCAT Laboratory High School Calapan City Campus.

I will share with you about my experience when I teach students at the MinSCAT Laboratory  High School Calapan City Campus.

 At first I taught science in grades 7 through 10, but as I said earlier because I had to get 20 teaching hours so I was given additional classes with different subjects.
I teach science grade 7 to 10, mathematics grade 10 , TLE grade 8, HE grade 12, and STEM class 1.

 My schedule of teaching practice in MinSCAT Laboratory High School Calapan City Campus

Before I teach students, I have to make lesson plans and give them to my cooperating teachers and coordinators, so they will check them out first. Not just a lesson plan, I have to prepare other material if I use additional material. after that I usually set up a power point for my use at the time I teach.

I taught from Tuesday,February 6th until february 13th.

 

I teach them start at prayer, i will choose one of them to lead the pray. Everyday is different leader. Next i will do greetings, said good morning / afternoon to them. I have to checking the attendance to make sure who is my student that attend my class. I will ask to the secretary who's absent today. If the student has the assignment, i will ask for them, do they have a something difficult or not in their assignment. If they said, yes mam, ofcourse we will study that together. After we disscuss the assignment, i will review for them the past lesson. i will ask them, do they still remember the past lesson or not. After i do the daily routine, i will teach them about the topic today. I will give the motivation on learning and presentation to them. I will ask if they do not have a question or not. After that, i will give them some activity that they must do. Sometimes it is in group and sometimes not in group. They have to present it in front of the class and we will discuss it together. I and the student will generalize the topic and they will do some quiz before i give them homework. After that i will close the class.

 

When I first taught here I was very nervous. Yet before joining this program I have been doing teaching practice in my country. I am nervous because this is the first time I teach using English. Of course very different from in Indonesia I teach by using Indonesian language my everyday. But I am very happy because the students here are very kind and friendly to me. They are very active when I deliver lessons. They scrambled to answer questions from me when I asked them questions. They answered with confidence there was no shame, unlike me who was initially embarrassed and not confident when teaching them at first time.

What an experience I will never forget, here I can feel the experience of teaching using a language that I never used in my daily life before.

In addition I also had the opportunity to teach with subjects that are not my department, really very amazing for me. Although, honestly I was very scared at first because I was so confused for the first time because I did not know what to do. And then I tried to learn some material in the sillabus that I got from mam jermaine, and finally I got it. And my students can understand and understand the material I teach.

I am very grateful. I am very happy because I got the chance to teach them. Thank you very much my students.

Thanks very much to the student teachers who have helped and accompanied me.

And thank you so much maam jermaine who has helped me and gave me an amazing experience.
