"The
moment of bittersweet, every end may be a beginning, but when you are in the
end part it still feels odd"
My Accomplishment
From
Monday to Friday, I was able to finish the required 30 executed lesson plans in
the Public School. I made most of my time teaching my students in IV-
Patriotism, IV- Reliability, and IV- Patience knowing that it’s my last week
being with them. I really made my lessons interesting and memorable. I was also
finished my 40 hours extension in BCNHS library.
My Significant Experiences
This week is full of emotion because my students knew that this is my
last week with them. It’s still the first day of the week and my students keep
on pleading for me not to leave. Deep inside me how I wish
I wouldn't leave. With this words that I heard from them, it’s
very hard for my part to say goodbye to them. The day has finally come, the
last of my practice teaching with them. My cooperating teacher, Mam Petra has
given me all the classes for me to say goodbye with them. With every section
that I had, I let them write comments about my teaching especially those things
that I need to improve more. Reading their comments, the loudness of my voice
is the main thing that they are telling me to improve. I really appreciate the
efforts of my students during this day. It’s hard to say goodbye but at least
there are a lot of memories that I could bring with me.
Looking forward for my practice teaching in the laboratory high school, hoping
that I could improve more and be better with my teaching.

My Insights
That
strange feeling when you’re about to leave a place. Like you’ll not only
miss the people who mean a lot to you but you’ll miss the person you are now at
this time and this place.
Goodbyes are difficult for me. There are students and teachers in City High who
I have become close to. I find that goodbyes can feel fraudulent, even when you
truly want to be sincere. Because both of you know that despite your
protestations of “Let’s stay in touch!” and “I’ll see you later!” you will
never again spend much time together.
To my
students I will be missing you. Teaching you has been the best experience and I
couldn't possibly ask for better students. You have been so supportive and so
understanding in this, and saying goodbye to you is the hardest thing I've
done. I will miss you all dearly, but I’m still here for you. You’re all great
students.
Walking out of Baguio City National High School, I know that I made a positive
difference in my students’ lives and it was worth it.
Problems
The
problem that I had encountered was that when I administered the post-test for
one section. I cannot really make them quiet since it was also the time that
some of the students were passing requirements and even asking for the things
they have made especially those who were excused.
Solutions
I
tried to manage them by letting them work on their own and be able to complete
those requirements that they missed after they had finished their post-test.
Goals for Next Week
With my
experience in the public school, I expect that as I step into the private
school, I would still perform good or even better. I should be able to touch
also the lives of my students in private schools and impart learning to them.
Aside from that, of course, I should accomplish the required number of lessons
on or before our last day.
