TEACHER IN ME

"A TEACHER IS ALSO A STUDENT"

Why did I choose this path? How ready am I in teaching students of generation Z? Everyone will, of course, have a different answer to this questions. There are many reasons why people choose to become a teacher. First, let’s start why I chose this profession.

                    

When I was in high school my dream is to be an HRM because I love cooking. One time I asked my mother “Nay, ma HRM lang ko ha?” and then she answered “Hindi lang kay ang mga pinsan mo HRM mga curso nila paryas2 na kamo” that time I’m disappointed. One of my aunt ask me “ Ano kuhaon mo nga curso jhing? Then I answered “HRM tani tita kaso hindi lang dw hmbal ni nanay “and again she answered me back “Accountancy nalang jhing dako sweldo ah parihas kay kuya noy2” and me was like “Oo no sigesige”. And again and again my mother told me that “how about you take education? It’s a life time career and big salary”. So, when I took MSU SASE I chose my 1^st choice is Accountancy and 2^nd choice BSed Mathematics. I passed the MSU SASE and sad to say I didn’t reach the cut off score of my dream course which is my 1^st choice. I don’t have any choice so, I got a slot for BSed Mathematics at first I don’t like teaching and I hate reporting’s which is teacher always do reporting’s like demo teaching (Duh!).

    

   It’s been 3 years and guess what I learned to love teaching because of my course I improved my reporting skills, I practiced myself to engage in paper works even its so tiring (hays!). When I was in 1^st year college I don’t have any confidence in reporting and I’m so lazy in my paper works but now guess what I don’t even practice before my report even the result is not excellent but still I can report even without practicing my script not like before I make many script and practice and in reporting’s I forgot everything. Our FS1 to be honest I’m so happy I don’t know how to explain my feelings when someone greeted me a “Good Morning Ma’am” even you’re tired it is all nothing when you heard that greetings. So, I never regret that I chose this path.

How ready am I in teaching students of generation Z?

Teaching is not an easy task, this is a noble profession and you have to take this seriously, to love it and dedicate yourself into this profession. This day I fully realized that I am really meant for the teaching profession because for 3 years in schooling and observing I never stop being an educator. And I believed that teaching is a noble and important profession and is an element of change for the society. And by this I will accept the challenges in improving myself and dedicate myself in teaching and being a second parent for them and keep on supporting them as they grow and graduate to be a well-developed and will have an important part of the society.
