While growing up I loved helping and I still do just in different ways now. I remember when I was clueless about how the world around me worked. I started to notice that I enjoyed being helped and then being able to return the favor to others. It just so happened to be a moment in high school where I found opportunities to that allowed me to work with people. I got told by my art teacher that The Frist Center has possible volunteer opportunities that one can be a part of. I decided that it would…

People go around the world influencing each other lives positivity and negativity all the time. Throughout my nineteen years. I have met many people who have influenced me.

I have decided to write about somebody who has always been there to keep me on track and pushing me to do better. He has been my…

In some school there is a girl strolling down the hallway getting ready for the day. She is beaming and laughing because she is tremendously thrilled for the classes she has ahead of her. Her first class starts off with her favorite teacher whom she has become really close. Simultaneously, there is another young lady walking down that same hallway, but she is not as content. She begrudges all of her teachers and all she can think about is getting out of school so she can go unwind. What makes…

Freire starts the base for his essay around the student-teacher relationship, and the dysfunction within. He is very right in saying that the process of teaching is akin to the banking system. This often leads to a poor relationship between the pupil and the almighty instructor. However, is this relationship and the teaching method a package deal? The current approach to teaching is the banking concept, which can lead to an oppressive environment, which is caused by the poor student-teacher…

On September 16th, 2015 I went to Chippewa Elementary School in Holtsville, New York. I made an observation at the beginning of the day in Mrs. Carey’s Kindergarten class. The purpose of this observation is to observe and evaluate the human matters of sentiments, behaviors, standards and relationships between teachers and students within the classroom. When I first walk into the classroom it felt dreary due to the whole classroom having dark stained wood paneling on all walls, dark wooden…

For my first field experience I observed a kindergarten class. The class included 24 students, the teacher, and the student teacher. When I entered the classroom, I was very impressed on how clean it was. The students were able to move around the very well, but it was a little tough for the adults. The students were located in the middle of the room at 4 tables, each seating 6 students. The teacher was located in the back corner by the window. This gave her an excellent panoramic view of all…

Learning. When that word is said there is no doubt you will have an array of different responses. You’ll have some who dread learning as for those who generally love learning. Whether or not you dread it or long for it your response is held by those who have taught you. I say that because people perceive things as they are presented. For instance, if one was handed a plate of food and it doesn’t look appealing chances are it won’t be eaten. Same goes for learning except in some cases the…

According to Glickman, Gordon and Ross-Gordon (2014) teacher evaluation systems should contain aspects of both summative and formative evaluations. Summative evaluations alone do not lead to the improvement of instructional practices of teachers. Following this type of protocol in teacher evaluation can also cause negative feelings and lack of participation by teachers. It is important that the teacher evaluation process fosters trust and open communication between teachers and evaluators…

When I enrolled in this course, I knew I wanted to be a teacher. It was not until I had begun implementing the concepts with the students in my field placement when my student asked me "Miss Meghann, why are you so nice to everyone?" then I knew I need to be a teacher. If I have a student who has to ask me why I am nice to all students in the school, it makes me wonder what these children are hearing and seeing from their teachers. My experiences with my teachers have greatly influenced my…

A clique is just a group of people spending a lot of time together because they all have something in common. In high school, a person can walk down the halls and through the flood of students and see all kinds of cliques. Each clique has their own drama, their own way of doing things and, their own personality as a group. There are several different types of cliques too such as active cliques, creative cliques, and intelligent cliques. It is usually not very hard to determine what the common…
