Three weeks of second phase of practicum had just ended. This time, I feel that time is flying faster than the first phase and yes I am enjoying every single moment of it. Even though with the lack of sleeping hours and too much head-cracked times trying to plan and design the lesson, but it always warm my heart seeing the joy come those young souls. I may be still at the inexperience level of teaching but I am learning to build myself as well as to find the pleasure in teaching. This time the challenges and environment are so much different than the previous one. To tackle the heart of 38 souls at a time is not easy at all. Literally, teaching seem to be easy viewing it from the point of the audience's eyes or perhaps recalling the memories back to school days. Seeing how a teacher delivers a lesson in front with talking and instructing the pupils to complete the tasks is a kind of ABC thing. But the truth, you will never imagine how difficult it is. In fact, I believe that every profession has their own struggles and walking down the path of teaching making me to see the reality of it much more deeper. Some days, it could be frustrated. Not just because of questioning the capability in teaching but also seeing the unbearable impacts glued on some hearts of learning the wrong things or perhaps just can't digest any single word uttered. Yet some days, I just can't take it not to laugh seeing the honesty portrayed, high level of energy demonstrated and playful words said by those young souls.
Children; regardless of where they are from, they are just being them, unique and adorable in their own special ways.
Two weeks off from practicum, I should spend some times to look for more interesting and captivating teaching ideas. For now, have your breaks pupils and see you all after the holidays, take care!
