BLOG POST ASSIGNMENT:
Direction: Answer the following evaluation questions (MINIMUM OF 5, MAXIMUM OF 10 SENTENCES PER EVALUATION QUESTION):
AFTER 2 MONTHS OF CLASSES:
1) What is your insight about English 11 subject in terms of subject content, lesson sequence, degree of difficulty/ease?
In having these 2 months of class, I came up a realization that I am so blessed. It is because, it is an opportunity that, I myself, is being trained to be an effective teacher someday, which is under the supervision of teacher Marian. Since, our English 11 is the teaching of speaking, the way ma’am Marian render to us the different topics on this subject matter, really trains us on how to become an effective speaker as an English major teacher. We had taught on how to pronounce the words properly, how to blend and also the different techniques on how to do some certain thing just like, Ma’am Marian give as the link on how to put some tune on our song.
For the lesson sequence, she taught if what are the different scenarios or the sequential activities that we’re going to do which is our training ground on some speech classes. First we’re going to line the students up in the lobby and next give the different rules in the classroom, some specific directions on how they’re going to put their shoes leaning on the wall, let them fix and settle themselves for the class session; they will be given some drills and activities after the class’ topic orientation and lastly by the end of the session, they will instructed on the way they leave the speech laboratory. At first , from the very beginning , For me the degree of difficulty that was being surpass to us is the beginner’s type of degree or the kind of the system approach.
2) What can you say about your learning environment in terms of classroom appearance and functionality, location, noise level, light/ventilation?
As one of the learners in class, everything in the room is really remarkable. The classroom appearance is really very amusing and that’s one reason why I love to go to the class. The functionality of the room especially the devices in the room can some and somehow are manipulated just like the microphone. Through the microphone ewe we’re able to answer vigorously on the subject matter. The location of the speech laboratory is on the second floor of the new building. And which is also very safe especial on the little kids who happen to have also their class in speech. The noise level and the light/ventilation are also a very good training ground for the learners.
3) What can you say about your classmates in terms of attitude towards others, subject, group work?
There were varieties of attitudes that were being manifested by my classmates especially in the attitudes towards others. Some of my classmates are very caring to the others needs. Some also are very snob to those classmates of mine who happen to consult him/her for subject matter purposes. And also some also cannot control his/her in appropriate behavior most especially when our teacher will discuss her lesson. In terms of the subject matter all of us tend to seclude ourselves especially while having the discussion. In this way, we manifested that we really have the remorse of excitement whenever our teacher will having he discussion. In having some group works, some of the group mates is really very eager to help the group, and some also don’t have.
4) What can you say about your teacher in terms of teaching style, lesson delivery, and rapport/attitude towards each students, communication skills, personality and manner of dressing, classroom management?
My teacher is really distended to be a teacher. Because she could reach our way of our understanding in terms of learning incapacities that we have as a learner. In her teaching styles, she really sees to it that all of us could reach those specific standards in which she is more on , on drills and activities that could harness our abilities as the future teacher someday and in 2 months time, it was really very effective. Her lesson delivery, she really makes sure that we will not feel bored in her class. In her rapport/ attitude towards each student, she’s really ready to lean on, on whatever spaces the students have in learning. For her personality and the manner of dressing, she looks formal in which she manifested her seriousness in the class and her effort and loving heartfelt way of educating her students. And lastly , for her classroom management, the way she manage the class is just like thinking that she’s not just an educator but a friend that who could be there in times of necessities of learning.
5) What can you say about yourself in terms of attitude towards content of subject, level of understanding of the lessons, level of improvement in skills?
As a student, I really have an attitude that I am always willing to learn and cope up the different aspects that will be rendered to us especially to me. And there is really likeness and excitement whenever the day of the class comes. In two months, I think my livel of understanding is not that really high enough but naturally below or in just an average level. I think it really increases because of the likeness that I have manifested/feel. For my level of improvement in skills , I am proud but humbly say that with the help of my teacher and classmates who’s there in me in times of needs , my learning/skills that I had, really improved not just a student but also as a person.
6) What are your recommendation/s?
For me, as a student, I can recommend that, in this subject which is English 11 –teaching in speaking, there should be more drills other than tongue twisters or on how to pronounce the words properly. I think , it is also a best way in having some drills on the different exercises on the pronunciation and the ways on how we’re form the different parts of speech. It is also great to see a movie or film showing.etc…
