ACTIVITY 1

Instructions: Read and answer the test. Follow the instruction to each test and convert paper
to PDF before submitting it to the google classroom. Submit on or before the given deadline.

A. Provide a short introduction of yourself and add formal picture. (Basic profile)

In a world brimming with diverse individuals, I stand out as a remarkable embodiment of passion
and determination. With a relentless drive to excel, I have carved a unique path, leaving an indelible mark
on every endeavor I undertakes. From a young age, I exhibited an innate curiosity and thirst for
knowledge. This curiosity evolved into a deep passion for learning, pushing me to explore various
disciplines and expand my horizons. Armed with an insatiable hunger for growth, I embarked on an
educational journey that has taken me through diverse subjects, honing me intellect and nurturing my love
for continuous self-improvement.
However, my journey is not solely confined to academic pursuits. My enterprising spirit and
unwavering determination have led me to embrace challenges outside the classroom. Whether it's
engaging in community service, participating in extracurricular activities, or pursuing personal projects,
my commitment to making a positive impact is evident in every step it takes. What truly sets me apart is
my ability to connect with people on a personal level. My empathetic nature and genuine interest in the
stories and experiences of others make me a natural friend and confidante. My interpersonal skills,
coupled with my passion for collaboration, have enabled me to thrive in team settings, where I
consistently contribute fresh perspectives and fosters a sense of unity.
I am a dynamic individual whose journey is characterized by my unyielding passion and
unwavering determination. My pursuit of knowledge, commitment to community, and ability to connect
with others make me a beacon of inspiration for all who have the privilege of knowing me. That’s me,
making myself extraordinary and my journey is a testament to the power of embracing one’s true self.
B. Provide a short expectation on the subject and the subject teacher.

As a student progress into third year of college, the anticipation of encountering more challenging
subjects becomes a reality. These subjects are designed to push students beyond our comfort zones and
encourage us to delve into complex theories, intricate problem-solving, and rigorous research. The
expectation of challenging subjects is not only a reflection of academic growth but also an opportunity to
refine essential skills such as time management, collaboration, and effective communication. While these
subjects may seem intimidating, they provide the chance to cultivate resilience and adaptability, qualities
that are indispensable in both academic and professional spheres.
Before the first semester started, I solicit some information from our seniors about our new
subject which is PED 7 The Teacher and the School Curriculum and the instructor of it. I received nice
feedback from them because they gained lot of knowledge about it. According to Kuya Carlo, the lesson
makes easier because Sir Patrick will discuss it very well and they really understand it. He also reminds
me that just listen to his discussion because later he will give a quick long quiz. I also asked Kuya Carlo if
he have a course pack of the subject PED 7 so that I will study in advance, but he told me that Sir Patrick
will give us the syllabus, course pack, and PPT from prelim to final. Luckily, Sir Patrick really gives us
that all. Those all information that I received is very interesting. I expect those experiences from him in
our PED 7 journey with Sir Patrick. As we’re done in our first face to face discussion, I already have
some knowledge about subject The Teacher and the School Curriculum. The discussion is not boring
because Sir Patrick gives us some jokes for us not to be bored in the class. A supportive and engaging
teacher can ignite a passion for a subject and foster a lifelong love of learning.
Embracing these subjects will not only enrich my intellectual journey but also equip me with
valuable skills that extend far beyond the classroom. By implementing effective strategies and
maintaining a resilient mindset, I am confident in my ability to rise above the challenges and emerge from
this academic year stronger, more knowledgeable, and better prepared for the future.
