Experience is The Best Teacher



I had learned a lot of experience in our microteaching class in February 9th. Yesterday, we were formed into group which had been created before. In mini group, a group was consisted of five members. In that group, we also had to teach our friends as our students in elementary school with the material that had been designed before (make a lesson plan). In that time, I taught them mathematic lesson for fifth grader. I used some candies as my props in introducing GCF. I think that props is a tools which very helpful to help students become more understand about the material which is being taught. It was the one of important thing in determining a successful teaching. You have to make this aids in every teaching activity in the future, if you desire to be a good teacher, absolutely :)

But, in that time…actually I did not have preparation, no more … Could you imagine that?? I had not practiced to teach before, and also I did not bring candies as my props, good job^^ hoho, so I decided to make a pieces of paper and wrote down oranges candies and berry candies on them. I was satisfied enough with that, it was a good idea, wasn’t it? NO >.< 

In the first time I teach, I felt very nervous because I was not ready anymore … but after that I enjoyed it, teaching in a mini group was the one of happiest moment, it because of my friends as my students who had given a lot of attention when I was teaching, and also they respected me as their teacher. Thanks, my students :D 

I get some experience from my friends when they had their own turns to teach. From Theo, I loved the way when he gave good motivation to their students and he also had prepared his teaching props. The second one is Marry, she was a cheerful teacher, she always smiles to their students and she tried to interest the students with involving them in reading stories which had been read before by her. But you have to make a conclusion in the end of the class. Yes, it was very important thing to be determined. From Yessy, I also think that she was a cheerful teacher too, she always smiles and smiles…I think we have to determining this cases, we should smile to our students, indeed, but it will be better if we just smile in any certain momment, not in every momment, and from Yessy’s teaching practice I also get that we had to give our students motivation when he/she try to answer our questions, neither it was right or wrong. And may be student center is more effective way to attract students’ interest in learning new material then teaching center. And in the last is Rita, she was doing good job, but the material which had been taught is limited, so students also get limited knowledge, and as a teacher we have to expresive in teaching, both in act and speaking, we have to speak clearly in teaching so that our students will get our lesson and not get bored soon. 

And the suggestion from my friend to me, I have to be more patient, if the student give answer which not right or different with the answer that I was expected. Thanks guys … you give me a lot of teaching experiences in teaching :)
I still have to practice, practice, practice to be a good teacher from you, guys ^^
