Personal Reflection [ Week 8 ]

"yakin pada dirimu sendiri!"
huff, maybe that is the best word to motivate me. I don't know what happen with me, but after I saw my friends performance, I thought that there were some things in me which should be improved. I got many positives comments from my friends and Mr. Prast. I remember when I practiced teaching class, it was not 'my best performance' i think.
These are 'my bad' when I practiced teaching:

• I smile too often
• I speak too often in my speaking class
• I was too relax in teaching

From my friend's blog, Adria, I get comments like this:

" The way he taught was too relax and it confused the students a lot. He presented two topic at the same lesson. He taught the expression of sympathy and happiness. I thought those topics should have been separated in different meeting because before the students got the idea of the first topic, they had to face another topic. Moreover, the objectives were vague and doubtful, I was not sure whether the students achieved the indicators or not. "

In the next class teaching practice, I get topic : Listening for SMP grade 7. I will try to do my best on it. Comments from my friends will be guide for me to improve my teaching skill. In the next class teaching, I plan to do this:

• make handout which is suitable with students' grade and make sure that the students can achieve the indicators.
  
• because this is listening class, students will listen more.
• not too often smiling.. =)

yeap! I think that's all for my reflection. comments and suggestions are hoped!

Personal Reflection [ week 7 ]

In the 7th meeting of micro teaching class, I acted as a X grade student. From the beginning until the end of meeting, I just sit and watched my friends who practiced teaching. There were different characters between one and others who practiced teaching at that time. There were serious teacher, funny teacher and 'nervous' teacher. I liked to see Zita's and Adria's performances. They could explain their material well. From Zita, I learned that when we confidence and had mastered the material, we could explain the material smoothly. From Adria, I learned that when we used media for teaching, students' motivation to learn our material will increase. Students would be more comfortable and enjoyed the material given by teacher.
I think that's all I can write for my reflection.

Reflection after practice teaching [ week 6 ]

Last week I have practiced teaching. I decided to teach "how to express happiness and how to express sympathy. I took those topic because I thought that those topic were easy to be taught to the students. This topic also fit with the standard competence and the basic competence which I should teach to. When I started teaching, actually I was nervous. I thought whether the students will pay attention to me or not. But, while I was teaching, I did not feel nervous anymore. First, I gave them song to be interpreted. The song's theme was happiness, I chose it because I would like to teach how to express happiness (I mean that the song will guide them to enter the material). During teaching, I felt that the most difficult was how to make the students pay attention to the material I thought. When I finished teaching, I got 3 written comments. Their comments were so constructive, thanks for that. From the first class teaching, I learned that teaching in conventional way (giving handout and explaining) will make the students bored. I have to have something different like using media namely video or something else. If I should teach this lesson again, I will have different way to explain the material. My first practice teaching is an unforgettable experience!!
