HLTA Classroom Role

Decent Essays
The role of a HLTA can include getting classrooms reasy for lessons, supervising small groups of children, helping to plan lessons or even supervising other support staff. You are also expected to prepare and modify teaching and learning materials to meet specific needs or targets.
However, the main teacher is to be always in charge of the whole class not you.
Over the course of my teaching career, I have found that learning from and teaching others is a very good technique in getting to know my colleagues and work better with them. Plus, sharing positive results form methods which I utilise in class and vice versa develops a sense of respect between my colleagues and I which help working in collaboration.
Additionally, regularly meeting up

    For me the activity of working as a group especially with other individuals who I have not worked with or talked to before was a good learning experience that had both positive and negative outcomes using Driscoll’s model of reflection as a frame work to elaborate on how I interpreted what happened, what impact the situation had on me and what I will do in the future if presented with a similar situation (Driscoll and Teh, 2001). We were required to do a 10 minute presentation for a health promotion project that we developed. I decided to work with other individuals who I didn’t know and have not worked with before as I believed I would be more productive and respectful if I worked with people I didn’t know very well. For the first tutorial…

    Dear P&P Class Members: Previously I attended Juniata College in Pennsylvania where I received a BA in General History, Art History, and Museum Studies. My academic focus was not only on exhibition making and design but also WWII and pre-Impressionistic art. While at Juniata, I interned at the Smithsonian National Museum of American History in Washington, D.C. where I learned the vast intricacies of the inner museum workings. Most of my teaching opportunities and experiences have happened outside of a traditional classroom and learning environment. From one-on-one to groups, my teaching has been less on the academic side and more on the life skills side ranging from students half my age to three times my age.…

    Personal statement: Noor Amalina Md Yusof The progression of technology and the effects it has had on civilization has always fascinated me, and generated within me an interest in the Sciences. More recently, I have begun to excel more in Biology than Chemistry or Physics, and this is where I wish to continue my studies. In my opinion, Biological Technologies are an important resource, and are fast becoming more important to industry and medicine, as fields like Bio-Materials and Genetics are developed. I believe that there are still many new and exciting discoveries waiting to be found, hidden within nature, and of beneficial use to humans and the environment.…

    While reflecting on my time at Tomahawk Intermediate School I believe the most rewarding aspect of my Student Teaching experience was getting to know my students and watching them grow. For example; Focus Student A started off the school year very unsure of herself unwilling to stand up for herself in group discussions even if she was correct. Through positive reinforcement in small group and one on one she has become more comfortable with her classmates and more confident in her own abilities. For this reason, she is now willing to speak up in small group discussions and whole class discussions.…
