I want to teach my students how

to live this life on earth,
to face its struggles and its strife
and to improve their worth.
Not just the lesson in a book,
or how the rivers flow,
but to choose the proper path,
wherever they may go.
To understand eternal truth,
and know right from wrong,
and gather all the beauty of
a flower and a song,
For if I help the world to grow
in wisdom and grace,
then I feel that I have won
and I have filled my place.
And so I ask your guidance, God
that I may do my part,
for character and confidence
and happiness of heart.
Statement of Purpose
The intent of this portfolio is to provide and share experiences and ideas to those who will
undergo the same undertakings. Through the experiences written, some latest innovations
and strategies in teaching were shared. Their applicability will vary depending on whatever
and whenever it suits to the classroom situation. Some classroom problems were also
mentioned whether they are severe or not, they are somehow enriching experiences that
will guide and teach future mentors in performing teaching endeavors
This portfolio will serve as a tool for information sources.

Our Teaching Philosophy

To educate is to become a better educated. It is circular process that
improves with time; we believe the responsibility of educators is to provide students with
the necessary knowledge and skills to succeed in academic, business and personal arenas.
Our teaching philosophy is based on the belief that education is a solution to many social
problems. Education provides the tools to make informed decisions, synthesize ideas, and
critically evaluate relevant issues and to enjoy life. Therefore pursuing knowledge and
working to improve our skills as an educator are among our highest priorities.
As an educator, we will strive to encourage excellence in our students and
ourselves. Course material should be challenging, interactive and relevant to current issues
and events. Students learn and retain more information if the material is presented in an
environment that is interesting and interactive. For this reason, we believe that using a
variety of multimedia including video, slides, and the internet, is an effective way to
complement traditional course lectures remains the foundation of the educational
experience. We feel that we can encourage students to seek new knowledge and explore
their own ideas by an enthusiastic presentation of both what is. And what is not known
about subjects. When appropriate, the classroom setting should be expanded to include
experience in the field. What better way to make the necessary connections among
biological concepts than by observing how organisms interact with their environment?
In our interaction with students, we will strive always to be respectful,
especially when dealing with differing opinions that may arise as product of scientific
thinking. We want our student to learn to think critically, not merely to accept our ideas and
opinions; our drive to pursue higher education was due in part to several teachers who
inspired catalyst for other people to pursue their dreams.

My goal/s for my pupils/students is/are:

Level:

Grade III

I believe each and every child has the potentials to bring something unique and special to
the world. I will help children to develop their potentials by believing in them as capable

Every classroom presents a unique community of learners that varies not only inabilities but
also in learning styles. My role as a teacher is to give children the tools with which to
cultivate their own gardens of knowledge. To accomplish this goal, I will teach each child so
that all learners will be capable and successful. I will present curriculum that involves the
interests of the children and make learning relevant to life. I will incorporate themes,
integrated units and projects, group work, individual work, sports and cultural-oriented and
hands-on learning in order to make children active learners.
Lastly, I will tie learning into the world community to help children become caring and active
members of the society.

Which views do you agree with? Disagree with? Expound.

We all agree to the statement of our critic teacher that I will help children to develop their
potentials by believing in them as capable individuals. Every student has hidden potentials
but the problem is that they are afraid of showing it due to lack of confidence. They need
reinforcement in order to be motivated. In order for them to be confident, we, as future

teachers must develop and enhance first our students to be competent, self-determined and
to have self-respect because these are the components in order to be component.

What I really want to teach to my pupils/students is/are:

The value and significance of education for all, on how it can transform the life of every
individual from a mere student into a productive individual in the future.

1.

c.

I will teach my pupils/students by:

Giving them a concrete ideas for every lesson that we have in order for them to clearly
visualize and understand it. Moreover, we will teach them by the process of learning by
doing because this is more appropriate in the transferring of learning.
What Philosophy do you adhere to? Why?
It is the progressivism that we want to adhere to because we believe on the
progressivists point of view that the students world is the focus and starting point of
education. We are a firm believer of the statement Students are the key participants of
education. We will let our students construct new knowledge as they conduct experiment
or during activities and our role is to facilitate and guide students in order to make learning
active and democratic.

Additional Enjoyable Reflective Activities

1.

a.

If you were a school tool (ruler, pencil, paper, etc.), what would you

be? Why?

Drawing

Why? There are so many

tools used by the students in
the school like ruler, pencil,
eraser, book, etc. Indeed, all
of them plays a significant
part in the students lives.
But if I were a school tool and
relate it to the kind of
teacher I would want to be, I
would choose a ruler,
because I want to guide my
students into the right
direction. However, I want to
straighten their lives so that
it would not be put into
waste. Obviously, just like a
ruler I want to give my
students a straight path
towards a better future.

Why? Table, chair,

blackboard are only some of
the furniture that can be
found in school likewise door
and window. But if I were a
school furniture I would want
to be a window, because I
want to give my students
something to look up
especially when all the doors
are closing on them.
Moreover, I would always be
open on them to give them
light during the darkest hour
of their lives.
Drawing

Drawing

Why? I choose pencil

because as a teacher, I must
accept my mistakes if ever
that I committed something
that is really personal to my
learners I can erase my faults
then make something better
for the improvement not only
for myself but of course to
my learners. I am full of arts
in transferring learning to my
students.

Why? I chose door because

being a teacher, I must be
open-minded to every
circumstances that will occur
or appear in my profession. I
should give different
opportunities to my students
so that biases will be avoided.
I should accept any
challenges and be
determined in order to
become an effective teacher.
Drawing

By: GERALD VILLARUEL

Drawing
Why? If I were a school tool,
I will be a ruler because like
a ruler, I will guide my
students to become a

productive individual later on

by teaching them the
concepts they ought to learn
and I will provide them the
knowledge so that they
would be in the right path,
doing the right actions and
that they will succeed
eventually.

Why? If I were a school tool,

I would be a chair. Just like a
chair which supports a
person who sits on it, I will be
the supporting person to my
students, encouraging them
to learn more and value
education so as for them to
acquire knowledge which is a
very important factor for
their success and like a chair,
I will make them comfortable
through showing respect to
each of them, their
weaknesses and strengths
and their inclinations to
learning.

Drawing

By: JASMIN SIFEL H. SANCHEZ

Drawing

Why? If I were a school tool, I

would be a class record
because I will serve as an
evidence when parents of my

students have complaints

with regards to the grades of
their children. I will also serve
as a reflection of my
students achievements or
even failures because a class
record is a tool that contains
the students results in
assessment and participation.

Why? If I were a school tool,

I would be a door because I
want to be open-minded kind
of teacher for my students. I
will always be open to all the
ideas, suggestions and even
reactions of my students so
that none of them will
develop fear or hesitations in
approaching me. I will accept
any type of students because
I am a firm believer of a
statement that the youth is
the hope of our motherland
by Dr. Jose P. Rizal.

In what area of classroom management was the teacher most effective? Which of
the supportive measures were effective? Why?
The discretion of the teacher to have a separate time schedule and vicinity or place
where the students will have to perform their activities which requires demonstration of
skills was the teachers most effective classroom management because in this way, the
students full potential to provide the best performances will be catered, thus the teacher is
giving justice to her students as to their understanding and learning of the lesson.
In what area of classroom management was the teacher least effective? Which
supportive measures were not effective? Why?
As we have learned from our visitation in the school where we conducted our interview, the
teachers classroom management is with least effectiveness is in the physical environment
of the classroom itself because the whole class is composed of 55 pupils and that made the
classroom very crowded.
However, this cannot be attributed solely to the teachers management since it is already
out the teachers hands but to the proper authorities who must had provided the school
premise with enough classroom and resources to cater the needs of the students.
Suggest more effective ways for your answer in number 2.
The teacher establishes separate activities in a separate setting, like group activities
are being performed in other classroom apart from the lecture settings, with the proper
allocation of time to finish the required task or activity. A certain activity is given 40 minutes
for the students to comply the said activity.
My Reflections (Cristine Mae Villalobos)
1.

1.

Describe at least 3-5 characteristics of a teacher who can establish a

well-managed classroom.
One of the characteristics of a teacher who can establish a well-managed classroom is a
teacher with good governance. If a teacher has a good governance with her students as her
people and with the classroom as her territory surely she could be able to establish a wellmanaged classroom. Because as a teacher she has the power to rule her students and with
her characteristic as a good governance students will follow her most especially if she tell
them to maintain classroom cleanliness and organization so as for them to have a conducive
learning environment.

1.

2.

What characteristics do you have at present that can make you an

effective classroom manager? Elaborate how these characteristics can help

you.
The characteristics that I have at present that can make me an effective classroom manager
is being disciplined and time conscious person. These characteristics of mine can help me in
becoming an effective classroom manager because if you know how to discipline yourself
you will become a good disciplinarian to your students and to your classroom. If you are a
time conscious person you can come to school ahead of time and prepare the things that
you will need in your class especially if you will going to conduct an activity so that time
would not be wasted. Moreover, you can also come on time to check and instruct or help
your students in making the classroom well-cleaned and well-organized.

1.

3.

What characteristics do you have at present that can hamper you

from becoming an effective classroom manager? How can you overcome

these characteristics?
The characteristic that I have at present that can hamper me in becoming an effective
classroom manager is that I easily get nervous especially when things went wrong. I can
overcome this characteristic by being confident in everything that I will do and if things went
wrong most especially if things didnt turned out to what I expect it to be I will just remind
myself to stay calm and find an appropriate solution that will solve the problem.
My Reflections (Jay Ar B. Aspero)
1.

1.

Describe at least 3-5 characteristics of a teacher who can establish a

well-managed classroom.
A disciplinarian kind of teacher can establish a well-managed classroom by setting a rules
and regulations with the approval of all students. Rules and regulations that are observable
and it must be followed by the students as well as the teacher. A disciplinarian without
harming the students physically, emotionally and psychologically; moreover, a disciplinarian
that is patient and has a friendly approach so as to avoid fear and hesitation from the
students.
1.

2.

What characteristics do you have at present that can make you an

effective classroom manager? Elaborate how these characteristics can help

you.
I am a well-disciplined and responsible kind of a person. These two characteristics that I
have are enough to be an effective classroom manager. A well-disciplined kind of a person

that has a friendly approach, with this, students will not be hesitant to approach me and
they will develop a sense of respect that results to the students to be responsible in
following the rules and regulations. A responsible kind of a person will have a sense of
commitment to my work and to my students through this I will be obliged to establish a wellmanaged classroom.
1.

3.

What characteristics do you have at present that can hamper you

from becoming an effective classroom manager? How can you overcome

these characteristics?
Being impatient can hamper me from becoming an effective classroom manager, but not all
the time I am impatient because it depends upon the situation. It is hard for me to overcome
it until now but I will seek the help of my friends and loved ones for some advices as to how
I could change my impatient characteristic.
My Reflections(Jasmin Sifel H. Sanchez)
1.

1.

Describe at least 3-5 characteristics of a teacher who can establish a

well-managed classroom.
A teacher who is committed enough to his or her profession can have a well-managed
classroom since he will not settle on just a poor performance of his students. He will not stop
seeking ways and strategies just to make sure that his students arrived at the
understanding of every lesson presented. If a teacher could not manage well of his
classroom, then there will be no longer learning to take place on the part of his students.
Also, a teacher who is sensitive to the needs of his every student and a teacher who has a
strong determination who will never be swayed in giving his policies in the classroom in
order to establish order that will eventually result to the learning of the students.

1.

2.

What characteristics do you have at present that can make you an

effective classroom manager? Elaborate how these characteristics can help

you.
I think my being determined to arrive at a good performance if not the best, will make me
an effective classroom manager. This will help me in giving instructions and delivering my
lessons to my students and that I am making sure that they arrive at the best learning they
must have.

1.

3.

What characteristics do you have at present that can hamper you

from becoming an effective classroom manager? How can you overcome

these characteristics?
I think my being impatient at times. When it comes to accomplishing a task, especially from
the students or any individual that I expected to perform his duties, I am very particular its
fulfillment unless they would say that they cannot fulfill it on time. I get irritated easily when
the task I have expected and that they promised to, was not accomplished because for me,
if you cannot do it after all, then dont make any promises.
This I think should be changed. I should be more patient to my students and will have to
learn to be considerate to them because not at all times that a person is positively inclined
to something, therefore, I will give them enough time but in the same manner, I will set a
specific time frame for them to pass the specific activity for them not take their work for
granted

My Reflections (CARLO D. CASTILLO)

1.

1.

Describe at least 3-5 characteristics of a teacher who can establish a

well-managed classroom.
A.

a.

Neat and tidy a teacher who possesses this characteristic can establish

a well-managed classroom, since that being clean and neat in yourself can also
be applied in the classroom by organizing an everyday chores that the students
should do. Thus, this reflects to what kind of a teacher the classroom has based
on its outlook.
B.

b.

Disciplined if a teacher is well-disciplined, he or she can impact it into

the students to behave properly and act as a well-mannered one. Problems

regarding disorganization of students will be lessen.
C.

c.

Organized a teacher should know on how to organize his or her

lessons to avoid misleading of concepts with regards to the lesson to be

discussed.
D.

d.

Able to create time management a teacher should know when to start

or to end his or her lessons so that a time allowed for the lesson to be
discussed will be followed without getting left behind the other concepts.

E.

2.

What characteristics do you have at present that can make you

an effective classroom manager? Elaborate how these characteristics

can help you.
Being punctual, organized, and able to utilize time management.
1.

a.

Being punctual of a teacher to come to school can be contagious to the

students, hence if this happens, a teacher can start his or her lessons early. For me
being punctual to attend my class will help me to study my lessons before the class
start.
2.

b.

I am organized in a way that I can handle my chores on which one comes first

and which one comes last. By this it will help me to finish things systematically.
3.

c.

Able to utilize time management having a time management table will help

me to utilize and do my task in a given time without hassle.

4.

3.

What characteristics do you have at present that can hamper you

At times that I dont know something I usually ask someone who can help me

without relying on my capabilities.

When some things went wrong always, I tend to become lazy to find for

My Reflections (Gerald Villaruel)
1.

1.

Describe at least 3-5 characteristics of a teacher who can establish a

well-managed classroom.
For me, a teacher who established a well- managed classroom is a teacher who is
determined, patient, dedicated, relate herself or himself to his or her students and give
consideration to his or her students. Through this characteristics, I strongly believe that
there will be a well- managed classroom.
1.

2.

What characteristics do you have at present that can make you an

effective classroom manager? Elaborate how these characteristics can help

you.
The characteristics I have that I think that help me to become an effective classroom
manager are; having humor in our discussion. Secondly, I am giving considerations when it
comes to my students reasons why sometimes they are absent. I am asking their reasons
whether it is valid or not at least they open up.

1.

3.

What characteristics do you have at present that can hamper you

from becoming an effective classroom manager? How can you overcome

these characteristics?
The characteristic that I think could really hamper me from becoming an effective classroom
manager is being impatient. I am easily irritated and easy to angry. Maybe I can overcome
this negative attitude of mine through controlling my emotions and put into my mind that I
must be good and to be an example to everybody.

THE TEACHER
AND THE
COMMUNITY

Name of Fs Student: Aspero, Castillo, Sanchez, Villalobos, and Villaruel

Course:Bachelor Of Secondary Education
Resource Teacher: Mr. Ronnie G. Java
Cooperating School:Escalante National High School
Our Target

Year & Section: IV-B

At the end of this episode, we will gain competence in identifying possible linkages
between the school and the communities, particularly those that will help attain curricular
goals.
Community Tour Observation Report

Name of the School Observed: Escalante National High School

School Address: Brgy. Alimango, Escalante City, Negros
Occidental
Date of Visit: August 23, 2013

Locality of the School

The school is located along the national road heading to the
RORO Port linking the province of Negros to the
province/island of Cebu.
Its neighboring community composes of residential
houses which are converted into boarding houses that cater to
the needs of the students coming from far places like
Molocaboc Island.
There was the historical landmark of the The Fist,
the 3-fist statue/structure which symbolizes and in honor for
the death of the persons who were killed in the ill-fated
Escalante Massacre on September 20, 1985, who died in
defending for their rights and for the freedom for themselves,
their families and for the whole nation.
Some government institutions can be found in the
community like the City Health Office, City Library, Post Office,
Shopping Center, Senior Citizens Pavillon, Public Market, City
Hall, Police Headquarters, City Hospital and Coliseum. NGOs
are the PYAP and other youth organizations. The thrusts of this
NGOs is the assistance during the citys activities like taking
part of their designation on different tasks in those activities
like tree planting and coastal clean-up.

Issues/Concerns/Problems of the Community

The main issue of the community that bothers the most is the
problem on dengue fever which affects 30 individuals in the
barangay. Traffic condition was okay and there was never a
problem with it as well as the pollution. Peace and order was
also good, though there was some cases of verbal conflicts
among the residents but was settled thereafter. The problem
on juvenile delinquency was of minor cases only like the thief
of some household animals, but were also properly addressed
and fined. The security for children was catered through the
deployment of barangay tanods in assisting the schools during
the end ofclasses, assisting the students in crossing the
streets safely to home.
The political climate was safe and there was no
violence because there was loyalty on the same party.
Water supply was provided by the barangay free of charge and
the residents will have to shoulder only for the maintenance.
Electricity service is the same with the neighboring cities and
municipalities in the province which is provided by the
VRESCO.

Community Resources
Parks may aid in the lesson of the subject utilized
through community field trips.
City library can be used for research and for
other reference tasks of any
Individual especially the students.
City museum for research and other reference purposes.
Provide insights and
knowledge on the citys history,
products, culture and the early
inhabitants from the earlier times.

provide instructional resources like posters and printed

hand-outs that aid in health care instruction.
City coliseum can be utilized whenever activities and
events of the school need to
be performed/held in outdoor areas.

Community/Assistance/Service Given by the School

The school provides assistance to the community through the
participation in different activities namely: tree planting
activities, mangrove planting, coastal clean-up, and fiesta
celebrations. The different tasks were assigned to the different
teachers with their students participating like the Senior
Scouts and the CAT officers of the school with the supervision
of an in-charged teacher.
The teacher served as a resource person in some
activities or programs as guest speaker on certain issues, with
the designation or order from the principal.
During the town celebrations, the schools Drum and
Bugle Corps is participating so as the different programs/class
in school, specifically the SPA Class which is assigned to take
care of the literary and musical activities and programs.
The teacher served as role models, portraying good
conduct to the students and to the community as a whole.
The school took participation in community projects
like the construction of the canopy to serve the neighboring
community most especially the students.

Our Analysis
Suggest new what ways by which the school can creatively use the resources of
the community.
We suggest to have field trips because the city has a museum that may provide
insights and knowledge on the citys history, products, culture and the early inhabitants
from the earlier times. We also suggest to utilize the city coliseum as much as possible for
the activities and events where the school is required to perform. It is good for the students
to have an exposure to their community resources because there is always learning when
they have actually experienced it.
How can the school address the issue/concerns and problems of the community?
The problems and concerns and issues of the community can be addressed by the
school through its participation in the different activities. The school can hold symposiums in
helping the community to be aware on how to lessen their vulnerability on dengue fever.
The school can provide tips on how to maintain cleanliness at home and lessens the cases of
dengue through conducting meetings to the PTA/PTCA at schools.
What possible linkages can the community and the school have?
The possible linkages that the community and the school have are brigadaeskwela,
tree planting, coastal clean-up and mangrove planting. During fiesta celebrations, there is
parade and there are drummers coming from the school and according to the OIC, teachers
are in charged for the sports activity. CAT officers and SSC officers are also involved in the
activity, and SPA class are in charged for the musical and literary activities. There is also
DepEd Night during fiesta.

Our Reflections

How did you feel while you were going around the community? What things did
you learn that you might have taken for granted before?
As we go around the community, we feel a sense of belongingness even though we
were new and strangers on that place. It is because the people there were very
approachable and we received a very warm welcome from them. The things that we learned
that we might have taken for granted before was the fact that there were people who gave
their lives for the sake of their lands, of course as a student living in urban areas, we did not
fully realize about human passions can do such things as giving their own lives.
As a future teacher, what do you think will be your role in the community?
As a future teacher, we think we will be an adviser as well as a surrogate parents to
our students as well as to the community through making them aware of the things they
ought to do and ought not to do. Giving them advices even on simple activity or task and
providing them choices on what to employ in terms of materials so as to produce better if
not the best results of their required task.
How will you encourage more community participation among teachers and
students?
We will encourage more community participation among teachers and students by
joining the activities conducted by the community most especially during fiesta
celebrations, so as to enhance the participation and values and attitudes of the students in
which the teacher must also serve as a guide and a trainer before and during the said
activities. Moreover, joining on the activities conducted by the community will show that
students abilities are not only limited in indoors but it can be also useful during outdoors.

Our Analysis
From the responses of the teachers, what conclusions can you make about the
knowledge that a global teacher should have?
v Based on what the teachers said, to be a global teacher, one should have the knowledge
on the different approaches and methods in delivering the lesson to the students. So as to
facilitate their understanding and learning. This knowledge on the methods sand
approaches of teaching must go hand in hand with the teachers knowledge on how to
utilize the modern technologies that aid in the best learning of the students.
From the response of the teachers, what conclusion can you make about the skills
that a global teacher should have?
v Based on what the teachers said, to be a global teacher, one should know how to
manipulate the modern technologies and be good in this ICT tools in teaching the lesson.
This skill must be applied inside the classroom as long as it is appropriate in the lesson so as
to be an effective global teacher. A global teacher should also possess the skills such as oral,
good written and communication skills because these are the basic and main skills that the
teacher should have so as to deliver the lesson effectively.
From the response of the teachers, what conclusion can you make about the
values that a global teacher should have?
v Based on what the teacher said, to be a global teacher, one should impart values like
being open minded, flexible, able to adjust to new change and challenges, patience, love
and compassion so as to be an effective global teacher. These values must be observed by
a teacher at all times so that students will develop a sense of respect and eagerness in
listening to the discussion.

In these moderntimes,we cannot deny the great influence of modern technologies in our
lives, much so with the way of our living, both the young and adults alike. With the advent of
these modern technologies, we were able to do our tasks more easily. Thisalsomade a very

great impct to education; because of these trends in teaching, we also allow ourselves to
grow. We are no longer stagnant to the traditional methods.

A Global Citizen, a Global Teacher

(Article)
By FretziePadolinaAlcantara
Date published: June 14, 2009
Date retrieved: October 10, 2013
Modern times paved us the way for different technological advances that prevent to be very
helpful in our everyday living. Different technological advances created a new trend to
satisfy our thirst for modernism and high-tech living. With these new trends, our educational
system is also coinciding with this making learning more advanced through the use of
modern devices.
The most common (and I think the most important invention in the 20 th century) is the
computer. During those times computers are only used for computing and storing data, but
right now having a computer and knowing how to use it is just as necessary as having to put
a food on the plate for your dinner! Computers proved to very helpful and useful for
education that integration has been the topic during seminars and workshops and how can
we utilize it to help our students face the world surrounded by modem technology.
It is true that technology has its plus and minuses. Others may also say that because of
technological advances, we are all teaching our children to become lazy and just depend on
the computer. Yet let us accept the fact that time has changed, our times are evolving and
we could no longer apply what we have learned in the previous years to the generation of
today. We should go with the flow. We just have to know our limitations in using these
modern technologies. These are made to make our life easier and comfortable. We are
human beings ad we are given the mind so we can manipulate things accordingly.
Moreover, because of these trends in teaching, we also allow ourselves to grow. We are no
longer stagnant to the traditional methods. We are now more open to new ideas that would
not just increase our students learning but also ourselves. As we open ourselves to new fad,
we can no longer feel outcast we are part of the modern world and we are now all ready to
face a more challenging role and that is to become the teacher of tomorrows youth. Why

would we keep ourselves inside a nutshell when we can explore the world? The world is at
our advantage, the world is waiting for us.
Furthermore being inclined with these technological advances, we must also know our
responsibilities. It is not every time that we have to let our students tinker the computer and
we would just sit back and relaxes knowing that that the World Wide Web or www can
provide the much needed information. We could not just do that. We are not teaching them
anymore. We are feeding them with information that is not anymore filtered if they teach
moral or ethical values. Modern devices such as computers are only a tool for learning. It is
not the one who will teach us. It is still far more different than having a teacher in front who
could explain the information being fed to these young minds. We just have to remember
that the best computer in the world in our minds. We, the teachers, dont just fed
information nor just teach these children the basics of addition and subtraction or the proper
use of grammar, we also touch their lives, we become a part of them, a part of their lives
that could not just be erases or deleted by just a click away. We remain in their hearts
forever.
Given these facts, we are now more than ready to call ourselves not just modern teachers
but GLOBAL TEACHERS. Because global teachers do not just use modern ways of teaching or
utilize modern devices for improved learning, but also has a heart a heart that tenderly
cares for every individual and a hand that gently holds every learners mind to be a great
contribution to the world. A student who is not just a product of modern world but can also
be considered a GLOBAL CITIZEN OF THE WORLD.
And now a GLOBAL TEACHER, creating GLOBAL CITIZENS OF THE WORLD, what else could
we ask for more?

TITLE: Filipino: A Globally Competitive Teacher
Its message:
The clip art portrays a teacher, a Filipino one, as it clearly showed from what
the illustration of the countrys map, who wherever may be placed or whatever situation
he/she will face, may it would be in his own land or even abroad, to foreign countries and all
around the globe, can be an effective educator, giving his students not only the basic
knowledge and skills but important values and compassion as well. This he does and attains
with the aid of modern technologies and advancements which enable him to become an
effective and a globally competitive teacher.

Our reflection:
In this modern era, one should be well-equipped with the knowledge and
skills in the modern technologies. Much more with being a teacher if a teacher has a good
understanding of how these advanced technologies work, he/she can apply it to teaching,
resulting to a better understanding of the students and providing them insights and
opportunities to improve their lives through the use and application of these technologies.

Additional comments
A deeper understanding of the rights, duties and responsibilities f a professional teacher is
of great help when we are on the field. Those rights, duties and responsibilities will serve as
our basis and guidelines so that we will be knowledgeable and we will not be deceived by
other officials when it comes to our rights. We can apply our knowledge about the rights,
duties and responsibilities of a professional teacher when there are situations related to the
rights, duties ands responsibilities.
Our reflection
How do you feel about the policies and guidelines concerning teachers? How will
you respond to them in the future?
With regards to the policies and guidelines concerning teachers, we feel that it is really
necessary that we must be committed, affectionate, and serious in teaching students. We

will respond to them in the future by becoming a good person or citizen today so that we
will become a good teacher someday. We should also abide by those policies and guidelines
in order for us to become a good teacher and a good citizen as well.
What insights/realizations did you have about the demands of being a
professional teacher? How will you meet these challenging demands in the
future?
The insights or realization that we have is that, as a teacher we should always take
responsibility to sustain professional growth and maintain professionalism of our behavior at
all times. We should be also accountable for the efficient and effective learning of our
students. We will meet these challenging demands in the future by associating and learning
from positive mentor, joining a professional organization and having an extensive body of
knowledge about teaching and being a good decision maker to be able to increase student
learning.
What are your values and strengths that can help you become a true
professional?
My love for whatever job that comes my way is my greatest value and strength. For it is not
only important that you are knowledgeable in a given job, it is also important that you love
what you are doing.
