Personal Reflection Essay

to reflect effectively and to consider what has worked previously in order to overcome potentially difficult and new situations. Being able to develop yourself in practice is also a key part of reflection as having potential for development is parallel to the continuous learning process achieved by reflection. Therefore in order to meet the standard discussed by Connell as part of the “Scholar-teacher model”, it is compulsory for the individual to engage with the professional learning process,…

Kierkegaard begins the The Present Age by stating that the present age is “one of understanding and reflection, without passion, momentarily bursting into enthusiasm, and shrewdly relapsing into repose” (1846, p33). I will begin by exploring what Kierkegaard meant by ‘passion’ and ‘reflection’. Kierkegaard sees passion, in contrast with reflection, as a desire to engage, to participate…

Reporting Our Conversation I conversed with a female counsellor with over two years of professional…

The methods I could use to optimise clinical feedback experience INFORMAL FEEDBACK I find this a very useful way of establishing a feedback routine with a preceptee, because it can be given during or immediately after a performance of each specific task(2).

Burgess and Mellis have stated that feedback has the greatest impact on students’ behaviour…

5. Reflection on my thoughts and feelings through the process Because I have an extensive experience of working with children (I used to babysit kids from 10 months to 10 years for a couple of years), playing with a child was not a new experience to me. I enjoyed engaging Sahak in a conversation and just be with him through the process.

Comparing and contrast of “Those Winter Sundays” and “My Papa’s Waltz” In describing “Those Winter Sundays” by Robert Hayden and “My Papa’s Waltz” by Theodore Roethke we see that both are reflecting on a childhood experience with their fathers. There is a showing of compassion and understanding in both poems yet fear is also described. The speakers are reflecting back on a past childhood memory with their fathers but we do not understand if they are pleasant or resentment. Although they deal…
