Recommended: Essays on mentoring students

During this semester I have had the chance to gain more knowledge and apply what I have learned to my field experience. I enjoyed having the chance to work with these students in summer school because it allowed me to see why they are struggling. Most of them just needed more guided practice and more attention to the subject. My tutee showed me how important it is to consider the seven critical factors, apply my knowledge from inside and outside of the college of education, and allowed me to analyze my global awareness of my surroundings. My tutee did not trouble with much, in fact, he understood everything just needed more guidance to follow all the instructions and to stay on task. I knew he got bored easily and my way of being successful …show more content…

Since I have matured and aged, I have realized and gained more knowledge of these subjects and because of that I will be well prepared for any student that enters my classroom. My applied learning experience has allowed me to encounter a classroom from a different aspect and it also allowed my own knowledge to grow more. For example, before my summer field experience I was never in a ELL classroom. This allowed me to value my global surroundings because I was allowed to learn from this and gain knowledge. Another example for why I value my global awareness is because I had the chance to see how students are thinking and learn from it. This let me practice my teaching skills and slowly progress in small groups with these students. The last example for why I value my global awareness is because during my field experience I encountered how to work with students who spoke a different language than my mentor teacher. At some points during the day the students would speak in Spanish and although my mentor teacher knew some Spanish to sometime make out what the student is saying, it was rare for her to be able to actually understand them. This experience allowed me to value my global awareness more because she showed me how to still allow her students to be success regardless of the teacher and student diversity. She was still accountable for their success and knowledge and with the language conflict sometime, she never stopped trying and never let her students fall behind. I value my global awareness so much more now because that allowed me to critical think about the situation I will face as a teacher. With this experience I will be better prepared for any student that comes in my

    As the time approached, my attitude toward student-teaching was one of confidence and in some ways overconfidence. I believed that I was equipped with all of the tools necessary to be a superior teacher. Little did I know what truly goes on behind the scenes of a teacher. Between grading papers, attending meetings, and preparing lessons, I would often feel overwhelmed. Still, student teaching would prove to be much more valuable than I anticipated. It would teach me to appreciate the wisdom of mentors and experienced teachers, value or being organized and prepared, and lastly the resilience of students.

    The job of a teacher is never easy but we have seen how cooperative discipline and enabling students to feel capable, connected and contributing can improve classroom management and maybe even our own moods. If we create an environment of mutual respect and give our students legitimate power of voice and choice in the classroom we will see positive results in improved student behavior and student achievement.

    My main field experience this semester was in Ms. Schreyer's third grade math class at Trinity South. I was in the classroom on Tuesdays from 8:30 to 12:00 and Thursdays from 10:30 to 2:00. When in Ms. Schreyer's class, I observed two different groups of students because of the way the class rotations work. The first group that I observed is Ms. Schreyer's homeroom. There are 17 students in her homeroom class, and four of them have IEPs for either learning support or emotional support. On Tuesdays I arrived as the students arrived, so I was able to see the morning routine. The students bring their materials to the classroom, go to breakfast, and, upon returning from breakfast, complete a bell ringer activity. The bell ringers alternate between math,

  • Educational Philosophy Statement

    1333 Words  | 3 Pages

    To begin, we need to understand the nature of students. The nature of students varies between individuals. The majority of students are well-behaved and come to school ready to learn. Part of this is due to the way they have been raised, but most students are basically good. There is a small percent of students whose nature, it seems, is to make everyone miserable. I do not know if this is because of a difficult childhood at home or because the student just likes to be the center of attention. Either way, there are always students that will give their teachers a hard time. I guess this is their nature. Every individual is different, therefore, the nature of the students I will teach some day will be different depending on their background and other various things that may happen to them as they grow up. For example, a student that has lost a sibling due to an illness or accident, may become very bitter throughout life. The nature of this student’s behavior which is being shaped by this may make this student a cold-hearted and mean student. These are the students that teachers need to spend extra time with and try to make them feel loved, no matter how hard this may be. I, as a future teacher, need to look at students and try to help them out no matter how difficult that may be.
