Spanish Teacher

After reading the passage, Grahams interactions with the students are well presented, also some of his characteristics. As noted above, he has a funny sense of humor, he is not mean, and he is someone you would want for a teacher.

Mr. Wray was the first teacher and the only male teacher I observed. The class was a 7th grade Social Studies academy class. Throughout the observation I noticed he really cares about his students. He took his time going over the topic of discussion, and when some of the students couldn’t catch on he stopped to help the individuals. His class was very well behaved. The only time I really noticed any of the students socializing were when Mr. Wray put them in groups to complete a study guide. The second teacher I observed was 6th grade teacher Mrs. Dunn. She was teaching English to her students. She went over verb phrases and helping verbs throughout the class. I noticed whenever she asked questions quite a few of the students participated by answering. Mrs. Dunn had a positive attitude throughout the class period. I felt she truly enjoyed all her students and treated them the same. Even when some of the students didn’t answer questions correctly she didn’t make them feel dumb. She would just tell them good try. I could tell her students really liked her as a teacher also. The last teacher I observed at Westside Junior High was 7th grade Science teacher Mrs. Dugas. This lady came off as a very strict teacher compared to the other two I had observed. Her students were very talkative, which only made her become more annoyed when having to fuss at them. At the beginning of class the students had a bell ringer to complete. On the particular day I went the bell ringer

Freeman helped Melinda figure out how to explore her emotions without getting sucked into one place and staying. He helped her realize that there was more to the world than what meets the eye. He helped her realize that she was strong and she could make it through her problems. Mr. Freeman was a big character in this book. I guess you could say he studied Melinda and her actions, helping her cope along the way without even knowing what was wrong. He helped her with the little bits and pieces of her problems that she talked about. Mr. Freeman complained about how the school board cut his budget because art “wasn’t an important part of high school.” It’s a possibility that him complaining showed her that everyone has problems. Mr. Freeman spoke the truth as he saw

One-million-dollar question: Have you ever heard the saying that something is better than nothing? I heard that adage during the early 80’s and the motto still exists today. In fact, I applied those words to my career change when I had grown bored of plucking my keyboard every day.

Both the Hispanic heritage and American culture are highly influencing her, which brings an interesting integration of both value systems.

Monday, January 29, 2018, was my first day at Saraland High School and it was my first day of observations. Saraland High School is located in Saraland, Alabama where it is a part of the Saraland City Schools School System. Saraland High School has a student population of approximately 1,000 students. The teacher that I will be observing for this semester is Mr. Kendric Cook. Mr. Cook teaches Health to 10th graders. Mr. Cook has been teaching and coaching for 6 years and this is his first year teaching at Saraland. On my first day, I got to observe Mr. Cook and his teaching styles. Mr. Cook told me before he started his lesson that he considers himself to be a non-traditional teacher. He likes to sit at his desk or sit on top of the student desk when he teaches because he really wants to make sure that his students are engaged in the lesson. Mr. Cook told me that when he was in school his health teacher would just sit at his desk and he would not really “teach” and he

As an IT help desk personnel I provide support and assistance with equipment and software used in computer labs, classes and employee offices. This responsibility requires me to provide technical support to the college community in an efficient and accurate manner. I am considered as the college front liner who will solve basic technical problems and provide support. Working as an IT help desk personnel has given me an insight into my major in college that I wouldn’t have had otherwise. Having a solid foundation of IT basics has increased my understanding for more advanced topics within my major.

Mr. Neck teaches History and he is mean, a racist, and out for Melinda. On the other hand, Mr. Freeman teaches Art, and he

My senior year AP English teacher is well known throughout the school for being the hardest grading teacher there is. An argumentative research paper comprises a significant part of our grade. Although he assigned us the research paper at the beginning of the year, most people procrastinated until it was due in two weeks. I along with handful of people had finished and turned it in two weeks before the due date. My teacher quickly reviewed my essay and said to the class that I had written a good paper. This prompted a wake-up call for the whole entire class. Word spread, and I found myself surrounded by many people who desperately needed my help.

Christy Llanes is an AP Biology, Biology, and AP Environmental Science teacher that educates students at Jose Marti MAST 6-12 Academy; she works with 8th-12th graders. Christy is also the head of the SECME Club, as well as the Head Chair of the Science Department. She believes her Science department offers an innovative and cutting edge program. Students learn to be critical thinkers, problem-solvers, and decision making citizens about the science and technology issues that encounter our society. Her 21st century teaching enables students to become future leaders who are able to overcome past scientific difficulties. Technology is utilized for a myriad of applications such as interpreting real-time data and using simulation software.

When I was in eighth grade and my class was choosing our schedules for our first year of high school, I was told that for the diploma I wanted, I would have to take a foreign language. I chose Spanish, because I thought it would be easy. Little did I know that that decision would change my life forever.

Choosing a favorite teacher is fairly difficult when one puts into account all the types of teachers they have known, all of them are important. Teachers are the second most important people in our lives, right after our parents. Teachers are persuasive and have the power to build a child up from an immature student to become a responsible adult; or they can completely and utterly crush a students hopes and dreams.

Her class of teachers take their jobs very seriously, and do not tolerate students who skip or disrupt their classes. These teachers are fun, because once you get them off on some irrelevant tangent, they will keep themselves going on it for entire class segments, trying to get out years of thought and consideration in just a short period of time. This is how I got to know my psychology teacher, because I was the one who kept her talking, so that the class could avoid taking the quiz that none of us had studied for. Teachers like her have the innate gift to educate and entertain, with their comprehensive lessons and subtle quirks.

Franklin. This man was my high school computer science teacher. He enjoyed his job to the fullest extent. The fact that he could teach us what he had spent so many years doing made him a happier person. In his leisure time away from teaching, he would spend a portion of it planning things to make the class more interesting and better for us. He would also take more time to spend with his family, or go out and have some personal time playing video games at a local arcade. He also did a lot of the things that he never got a chance to do as student, laboring through school.

Again in my own opinion, I truly think this made his presentation crash for me in the simple fact that at some point in an educator's life you will have to deal with all sorts of different people difficult and not, but a teacher has to be prepared and grasp and or uphold all situations in a calm, peaceful and professional manner. Him, having said that made it seem as he still has not yet accepted that fact. Overall the teachers visit was very informative I did take a lot of mental notes from what the teacher said into account and do hope to practice as well as utilize some of his methods in my own classroom to see how well they work for me. He did inspire and motivate me to try hard and put everything that It can possibly give into teaching and the college process because the payoff is life changing. Having this professional education instructor come back to his college in which he graduated and having the luxury of conversing with students sitting where he was not too long ago about being an educator was very inspirational to me. Also to see the amount of the commemoration doctor dresser was awarded to this man gave me the intuition of doing the same and come back to my college to be bestowed the occasion to tell aspiring
