Weekly Journal 10

It is our last week here at our cooperating school, Baybay II Central School, and I am grateful that my internship journey here has been full of memories to cherish. The entire week was extremely hectic due to an upcoming activity at this school. Each teacher, as well as interns, are assigned a task. I managed the class for the entire week, and on Wednesday, I had my demonstration, which was observed by my cooperating teacher, who wants me to grow as a teacher. After my presentation, my cooperating teacher congratulated me and provided feedback and suggestions. I was overwhelmed by the feedback and the outcome of my demonstration. I am grateful for the lessons, takeaways, and knowledge that my cooperating teacher shared with me and for the advice that will be useful in the future. Handling primary students a week was rewarding because it taught me a lot. I felt like I was a real-life teacher because I handled a class, taught them, communicated with the students, and shared ideas about each other. Handling them was challenging from the beginning, but I gradually learned to love them and handle them the best I could. I find it a pleasure to share and impart my knowledge to them, as they share theirs with me. I will be eternally grateful to this school for the opportunities they provided us; they did not see us as students but as colleagues. I must say that I enjoyed working with the school, my cooperating teacher, and the students. Learning the various teaching styles provided by this school has been an incredible experience for me. They are excellent with students, and I appreciate how they involve every one of them in the course of their instruction. I learned a lot from this school, from all of the teachers, and my cooperating teacher during those few days, and I can't thank everyone enough. As a future teacher, I plan to put everything I've learned at this school to use in the future.
