Teaching method

1. How does it feel teaching today compared to when you first started? Throughout the years, did you learn any new teaching methods? If so, which one was the most efficient? What has been your favorite aspect of teaching all these years? There is a lot more challenges and expectations related to the students. For example, I’ve noticed that children have more needs nowadays than years ago when I first taught. I have to teach a lot more using different modalities and do a lot of small group…

Graduation from teachers college will be an exciting moment in my life, as I am sure it is for many. One challenge for teachers in small towns who work in small schools is that they often have to teach more than one grade. Teachers face many challenges every day and it is important to remain effective in the process of completing all of these challenges. There are many ways teachers can be good at what they do, not everyone has to be the same. Effective teachers care about their students…

picked out the book Ellis Island, which was in my text set, as a big part of the lesson. I came up with a way to relate what we were learning to the student’s lives to try and get them engaged. There were some things that went really well while teaching the lesson. First off the timing of it was good. It was a…

key aspect of personalised learning is high quality teaching and learning in Foreign Languages such as Spanish. One strategy is ‘direct teaching’ (DfES 2007, Moore 2009; Muijs and Reynolds 2011) which can be used to implement high quality teaching and learning.

students who have a hard time keeping up and I might use if I were to do notes (“7 Inclusion in the 21st-century classroom: Differentiating with technology”, 2015) Most the teachers would use pictures or graphs to help explain a concept, but if I were teaching any of these classes I would offer video examples or do more active learning because differentiated learning is more effective (Hobgood, B., & Ormsby, L., n.d.). It seemed that all the classes I observed just copied notes, took tests, and…

Even though verbal scaffolding shows a beneficial form of teaching students that can be applied in the classroom, it may take time because of the differentiation in each student. Some teachers may not be able to create two to five different lesson plans and teach them effectively in their groups. It may also come…

The diverse teaching strategies in the classroom are constantly changing. The teacher strategies are usually based off what the students are feeling. There are never lectures in the classroom. Each student has a teacher of his or her own to work with throughout the whole day. In my opinion, there is no teacher-directed discussion. When a teacher is working with a student, the teacher does the work with the student. The teachers in the classroom do not really ask questions unless they are do…

Reflection In this book, Mr. Lim Song Guan quoted that the highest aspiration of a good leader should be a good teacher. Therefore, in the first part he talks about his experience with the leaders he works with and the way they inspired him through their teachings.

Show the students the title and author’s name on the book. “Class, Class, we are going to start reading our book and learn about our case. As we read…
