Is this a reflection?
Written by: Dasrizal
Honestly, I have just finished this reflection today (and the due date is tomorrow, haha). However, I don’t know what I would have written if I pushed myself to write before today because I get an inspiration to be written today. Here I want to share my experience yesterday, and actually it is related to what we discussed last Monday. I remember that PETA in the first session discussed why we are going to be a teacher.
Yesterday, I became a booth keeper in an educational exhibition (I represented SSE), the visitors asked me, “what school is SSE? What program does it have?” and I just answered, “this is a school of education, and here you are taught to be an educator, especially a teacher.” However, they were surprised about the word ‘teacher’. Well, soon I said, “being an educator is not all about teaching in the class, if you are a writer, you teach and educate people. If you are an entrepreneur in education, you teach and educate people to care the education.”
What I am going to reflect from that experience that people are still unusual to hear someone is gonna be a teacher. However, I was so before I got the opportunity to study education in SSE. SSE has been inspiring me to be confidence to be a teacher, to be an educator, whether I would be a writer, a musician (who writes educational songs), or whatever. I am proud of it, no matter what people say about this profession. I love it. I enjoy it.
And my expectation about this PETA course is that we can study, discuss, debate, share, inspire, and persuade how to be an extraordinary teacher!
Super.
ReplyDeleteI like this one . There is similarity with me. Firstly, I don't want being a teacher. Even never thought to be a teacher. I wanna being a translator actually. However,since I study education in SSE, I do love to be a teacher :D
Good reflection Das :D
We were really lucky to get a quality education at SSE. We must seize this opportunity well. One was through the PETA course, we can become an outstanding educator and multitalent teacher,
ReplyDeleteHemmm when I was being a booth keeper in my Senior High School they did the same thing. When they came, and then asked the same question. I answered "After graduate from SSE, we will be a new generation of teacher, we will be bla bla bla..." and then they replied "Ohhh, but my child don't want to be a teacher". Really, I was so sad, but I can do nothing. They passed my booth and did not say "Thanks" . How pity I am. :')
ReplyDeleteSSE can change our mindset.. Teacher is fun profession.. I like your reflection..
ReplyDeletethanks everyone. i do believe that here, together, we can make a difference.

very good (bu puti ^_^)
ReplyDeleteI support you to make songs about math. so when later on in the classroom as a teacher of mathematics, we still continue the hobby sing a song. hee
don't forget publish your song okkk
being an educator is very great guys. when doctor say "i can heal people", when architect say "i can build a luxury building", we, as a teacher's candidate should say "we can make your children become a better people than you".
ReplyDeleteI like your reflection.
ReplyDeleteSSE will make me become the best teacher..Teachers can give birth to a variety of professions..
We make a difference..
