FS 1 Journey Summary and Reflection

Starting a journey is a brave decision that strengthens your resolve to continue. The only

way to learn is to expose oneself to the process that learning entails. Even though a good

outcome is never assured, I must admit that it will always be worthwhile.

There are several preparations that must be undertaken as a future educator if you want to

be a successful one. The standards were so high that they required you to always conduct

yourself professionally, serve as a role model for your students, and exhibit modesty, and other

qualities. These are some requirements for teachers because of the "stigma" society has placed on

them. In my instance, I have absolutely no issues with that notion. I would, however, maintain

my stance that since no two instructors are alike, we are all equally special. Each of us has a

unique perspective on life, how we interact with pupils, and other things, regardless of who we

are as individuals, the way we treat our pupils, and how we teach them to the best of our abilities.

In answer to this issue, this course has really aided me in improving my prospects for the future

as a teacher.

Field Study 1 focuses on the individual experiences students gain through engaging with

issues and activities from the outside world. Student instructors must engage in teaching

scenarios where the ideas, concepts, techniques, approaches, and tactics they have studied are put

into practice. The purpose of field study is to give education majors practical learning

opportunities where they can observe, verify, consider, and participate in the dynamics of the
teaching-learning process as it occurs in conventional classroom settings. I can without a doubt

say that this course has improved my teaching abilities. Despite the fact that this was

done/happen in face-to-face classes. Other than that, despite how difficult it is academically, I

am incredibly grateful for this topic. I developed my capacity for patience, creativity, passion,

and innovation. Being a student-teacher, I have never managed in-person classes before. The fact

that I was able to put what I had learned into practice and use the lessons our mentors had taught

us made this journey even more fascinating for me.

Overall, I felt that this first Field Study Course was really helpful to meMaking

PowerPoint presentations was both tough and enjoyable, writing lesson plans and waiting for my

critic to approve them, and finally, teaching it to my grade 2 pupils was a struggle. As a student-

teacher, those are merely the "tip of the iceberg" in my opinion. Behind those are the restless

nights, unforeseen breakdowns, demanding days, etc. that made it good up until this point—as I

write this—and made it worthwhile in the end. I genuinely think such things are essential for my

development and that I might someday make a fantastic teacher.

It's critical for teachers to feel at ease at work because doing so will make it harder to

complete tasks effectively. One of the main reasons I want to work in education is because it was

such a great experience to be among the students and be able to assist them. Being a

global teacher necessitates a lot of preparation. I discovered that preparation and classroom

management are the two factors that distinguish a good teacher from a bad one. As a future

teacher someday I must be responsible at all times. Furthermore, while observing students, I

learnt not only how to become the teacher I want to be, but also how to grow myself as a student
and boost my own learning. Following these experiences, I included some wonderful learning

tools in my own schooling to help me learn more.

My personal learning has been enhanced by controlling how I learn as a result of my

observations. Ability to build novel teaching methods that help students retain lesson content is

one professional development goal I'd like to integrate into my teaching someday. My

observations showed that many times, despite a student's best efforts, they were unable to

understand the material because they misunderstood the teacher's methods of instruction. As a

result, I consider it crucial that I comprehend my students better and select the most effective

teaching strategy. During my observation and presentation, I learned several important teaching

concepts. I now have a lot more knowledge than I did in the past about how I run my classroom,

whether it be online or in a face-to-face setting, or how to create a positive learning environment.

I hope to use some of what I've learned to create a successful classroom and environment when I

achieve my goal of becoming a teacher. To sum up, even though teaching requires a lot of work,

the rewards are unmatched by any other profession. By the end of the day, our efforts to improve

their lives have nearly worn us out. I'm thankful to have chosen a career that shapes children's

minds. Praise be to God.
