Hello! my name is Ghatsa Luqiana Ismah, just call me Ghatsa. I'm one of the students from Universitas Muhammadiyah Purwokerto who had the opportunity to participate the Seateacher Batch 11 in Philippines. Currently, I am in the third year of my study and I am majoring in the English Language Education program. I’m very happy and excited to share new experiences through this program.
Through this exchange program, I have the opportunity to experience teaching and learning in a different country, meet new friends from diverse cultural backgrounds, and learn about the education system in another Southeast Asian country. I believe this experience will not only improve my teaching skills but also broaden my perspective as a future educator.
During this program, I am placed at Nueva Ecija University of Science and Technology (NEUST) – Gabaldon Campus, located in Gabaldon. Here, I will observe classes, assist teachers, and practice teaching while interacting with local students. It is such a valuable opportunity for me to develop my confidence, communication skills, and intercultural understanding.
I hope this journey will become a meaningful experience that helps me grow both academically and personally. Through this blog, I would like to share my activities, challenges, and memorable moments during my SEA Teacher journey in the Philippines.
