ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

My internship began as a way to learn about the practical side of teaching while I was still in school. It ended as a memorable experience that helped me grow as a person and future teacher.

No task can be achieved without the assistance and contribution of others. This modest work would not have been possible without the tremendous, unending assistance and wise counsel of countless others. It is my optimistic sentiment to express my heartfelt gratitude and best wishes to:

Without the help of Almighty God, without whose support I would not have been able to complete this internship program;

For Ms. Sheena Eunice B. Tabudlong and Ms. Louisa Marie Andrade, the coordinators of the student internship program, for facilitating, overseeing, assessing, and responding to our inquiries in the best way they could;

To Ms. Anna Beth A. Varron, our college internship supervisor. My teaching strategies benefited much from your thoughtful and priceless help, both conceptually and practically.

My thanks to Ms. Hilda A. Pedrera, Ms. Rizalene A. Montuya, and Ms. Alfia Christine L. Mayone, my cooperating teachers in both my online and in-person internships, for their technical support and constant supervision, which greatly aided in my professional and personal development;

To my co-student interns, who were also my research team, thank you for making my internship journey bearable. I treasure the dozed-off moments caused by long rides to school, eating lunch, and returning home together. In particular, your innumerable acts of kindness, wisdom, help, advice, and naughtiness have made me feel at ease constantly;

Nobody has been my sole reason for pursuing this project than my family. Everyone has served as my moral and support system in all aspects. Thank you, family, for being there to support me in all that I do;

Last but not least, I want to express my profound gratitude to my students who helped me, whether they knew it or not, for cooperating, supporting, and respecting me as a teacher. Without these students, I wouldn't be a teacher.

I view this opportunity as a significant turning point in my professional progress. I'll do my best to make the best use of the information and abilities I've already learned, and I'll keep working to make myself better so I can utilize your valuable contributions. I am looking forward to the future working with every one of you.
