frequently been called on to change. Once again new ideas are presented on being an effective teacher and I will discuss how my teaching will change as a result of this course. There are five areas of interest that I found will elevate my teaching skills. I will briefly describe them as structure, groupings, instructional strategies, the concept of linking assessment with teaching, and more effective collaboration with my peers. The concept of differentiated learning is appealing to me and while going

Peer Coaching or Mentoring Benefits and Limitations The proposed workshop must take in consideration training supervisors in peer coaching. Peer coaching is beneficial for both supervisory and teaching practices. It enables supervisors to provide directed assistance to every teacher and helps teachers improve their instructional skills and address their immediate instructional issues. Glickman (2010) views peer coaching as a supervisory approach that helps teachers “confide in, improve and move

My field experience started in a third grade classroom at Gocio elementary school. I went to the classroom four times throughout the semester, and I plan to go back even after. By going to the school both for a full day and for only few hours of a day, I was able to get a picture of the everyday school life of these 3rd graders. Throughout my observation and assistance to the teacher I have not only grown in my philosophy of education, but have put reasons and experience behind my philosophy as well

According to Flynt and Brozo (2009), “the teacher—more than any other factor—has the greatest influence on student achievement” (as cited in Hattie, 2003). I found that above statement reminded me the importance of effective teaching is an essential component to students’ learning and mastery for such important topics of reading, writing, and speaking. Successful literacy teachers are “knowledgeable about how students learn to read and write, understand how to teach literacy, and are able to respond

Conclusion The role of the teacher is a critical piece when he or she teaches literacy programming because it is evidence of how a teacher view teaching (Izadinia, 2012). If teachers are prepared to address the diverse, and sometimes complex needs, of their students, teachers much understand phonological awareness and embrace it and work toward understanding the application for a diverse classroom (National Early Literacy Panel, 2008). The capacity to understand phonological awareness and its

As proposed by Dymoke and Harrison, good lesson planning is essential to successful teaching in so far as stating, `It is often the case that poor teaching, classroom management and behaviour stem from lack of explicit planning` (2008, p.122) It is suggested then, that thorough planning is fundamental to the successful learning of pupils in many ways. Whilst allowing the teacher to follow a process of thinking, providing a mental practice session if you like, the act of planning therefore becomes

This project will utilize a longitudinal experimental design to evaluate the impact of mental health consulting on suspension and expulsion beliefs and practices of teachers who received Teaching Pyramid training and distance coaching. Random assignment will occur at the school- or center-level, meaning that an entire school or center will be assigned to either the experimental or the control group. This study will utilize a randomized matched sample procedure to control for the effects of program

mirror and accepting what I see blindly, without any question or evaluation. Rather, it is about looking at what I have learned and how I can utilise that learning in my teaching practice. In this essay, I aim to only discuss what I have been taught and to see how I have assimilated ‘professional jargon' terms and the range of teaching tools into my consciousness; to see how I can address different styles of

have learned through teaching young people is that time goes by a lot faster. In reflecting from my field teaching lessons, I realized that there were many things that I was pleased with, but I also realized that there were many things I know I need to work on. Watching a video of you teach a class is the absolute best way to self-evaluate yourself. We are most critical of ourselves when we can see our work played back to us. This experience has not only been helpful in my teaching methods, but it has

their own experiences of science in primary and secondary education. (Van Aalderen‐Smeets, Van Hest, Walma van der Molen & Poortman, 2017) Throughout my schooling science consisted of a textbook or PowerPoint presentation that displayed content and I was instructed to write and memorise facts rather than participating in practical based learning. This experience left me with little knowledge of science concepts which meant that I formed a negative attitude towards science. Through my experience of science
