HED3023: Week 2- “Principles”.


In this week 2, many things has opened my eyes to be an educators. Principles? Life principles? Students principles? Teacher principles? Yes who ever we are we should have principles to makes sure we are in the right track and achieve our hopes and dreams in future .  What can I see in this week, it is not easy to be a teacher, so many things should be awared. Teacher is a very kind jobs yet it is also not easy to be one of them, even if we’re good in education doesn’t mean that we good in handle student problems. Strong? Yes that is the most important things to have. Student are many so problems will be much . Handle the good one’s student is easy yet not for the rest that is not good at all. Problems will occurs at anytime but are we ready to faces all this ? do we already know the best way to make this not happened? As human being we can’t get rid this kind of problems because “Problems is a friend”. If we don’t have problems then how can we be a better person someday? So here what can I see is teacher should always plays the good roles in the way how to make them remind themself and not doing bad thing outsides. Even if we try to stop them not confirm that they will listen but at least we do and we should always say a good word and give an advice or if we noticed that the student got a problems we call their name and ask them to meet us at free time so that we can know what is really happens and try to be close and talk in a good way. To be a teacher not only we share our knowledge but we can also act more and be concern in student problem so that the problems that student face not be affected to their studies. That’s all . Thank you . 

HED3032:WEEK 1- “Be a better teacher to have a brighter students”


After a long semester break about 2months now here again my class is started in this first week for a new semester which is semester 3. First of all, I’ve heard so many comments from the seniors said that this semester will be tough than previous semester because there are a few teaching subject as preparation for being a future English teacher Insya-Allah. This first week I’ve learnt so many things that related to be a teacher and the characteristics that I should have to be an English teacher soon. In my opinion , to be a teacher is not that easy because we should prepared ourself first and there are so many consequences that we will face from our students. Every student have their own abilities and different attitude and what should we do is to make sure and know how to handle students in a better ways. This first week of semester 3, what can I see is some of the lectures sometimes using a wrong way to handle students and their have different style on how to handle the students. We as an educators should not take it easy on this matters, we should know how to handle the students in different ages. As an adult the way to teach them is different from primary and secondary school students. Rules? yes that is one of the point that I want to touch here, in my opinion and of course all of the colleagues student will think in same way as I do, they hates rules and sometimes they like to break the rules. We as an educators should aware of this kind of problems because in this level of ages they don’t really listen an advice from the lectures because they think what they do Is right and nothing goes wrong.  In my opinion is I don’t think that if we too strict in rules can make students better because now a days even the student who’s not follow the rules also can scored well and do well in their studies so that what we can see is even the students not follow the rules still they can be a good in academic but for sure they will lack of dicipline. They tend to do that because they know after this they can’t be freely on wearing what they like because when we started to work we should really be dicipline no matter how so in college is the best and the last time for them to wear anythings that they like infact actually the rules are to be followed not to be break. Some of the students will think that rules and dicipline in college should be followed so that we already practiced and there will be no problems if sooner or later they work because of this rules practiced. Secondly , we as a teacher should let our student know earlier if we’re not be able to attend the class because sometimes the student already waiting so long for next class and suddenly the class is cancelled at last minutes, what do u feel if you’re in that situations? Maybe they take about 4 hours to attend a next class but because of the house is not nearby the college so they have to wait at college just for waiting the next class. I’ve remind myself not to do this to my students and should let my students know more earlier so that they can go back and not just waiting the class that at last the class is cancel . My last point of view in this whole first week is the teacher or lectures should plays the important rules so that the student will be able to do the same thing in future, we should not be bias to the student because we don’t really know each others more close and we don’t know what they have been through in the time being. Sometimes when the students acts different from others then lectures will comments and not using proper way to advice the students.”Be a better teacher to have a brighter students”. Thank you .
