TEACHING JOURNAL - WEEK 12

As future educator, it is important for me to develop my proficiency in many aspects, such as knowledge about my major subject, various language skills as well as the life skills and to widen my experiences through the exposures in the journey as a teacher trainee. By going through the 3 phases of teaching practice, it helps me to widen my perspectives in viewing the ‘real teaching world’.

In this third teaching practice in SK Green Road, I had encountered various types of real situations in teaching world which some I never expect at all. I admit that there were days where things were just so challenging and I did feel like giving up. However, through every hurdle I managed to see the positive sides of things that were happening with the guidance given by the people around me. I believe that teaching is not easy yet I come to see that life as a teacher is a blessed one. A teacher has the power to carry some impacts especially to the young souls as well as to touch the life of others along the way.

As human, it is normal to have all the negative feelings and to experience the meltdown points. Most importantly is not to give up easily in every obstacle encountered. To be a future educator, I need to learn to be a ‘multitask person’ as teacher job is not just to teach but stretch beyond that: a manager, a recorder, a facilitator, a mediator, a coach and the list goes on. Thus, it is very essential for me to always be mentally, emotionally and physically prepared for all the things that I will be experiencing in this journey as future educator.

As I am still at the inexperience level, I admit that it was quite hard for me to cope with things around especially in managing the class and ensuring that ‘real and meaningful learning’ is taking place. I feel that it is important for teacher to develop a positive teacher-student relationship in order to create more motivating and fun learning environment. When a teacher manages to be like one, the same positive vibe will be reflected among the pupils too; that they may treat each other well too.

I have learnt that making mistake is part of the learning process. There were days when I feel that the activities conducted were quite boring, not that interactive and too far beyond the pupils’ level of proficiency. Yet, from that I learn so many things which help me to conduct more suitable and appropriate teaching and learning activities in the class.

I come to realize that the most important thing is the real intention to teach. It is not just for the sake of imparting knowledge or completing the job as a teacher but also to develop the personality sides of the pupils. A teacher is to teach and inspire young souls to become a competence individual in every aspect and also to be a ‘wise man’ in making decision in the future.

I am thankful to have wonderful mentor and lecturer who always guide me through this phase of practicum. Indeed, both of them are very experienced, supportive and dedicated! The staffs and teachers are also very cooperative and willing to lend helps at any time. The relationships fostered through the stories shared on their teaching experience inspire me in so many ways. I salute their dedication and commitment in the teaching field. They are indeed great role models. Not to forget my awesome practicum mates and course mates (PISMP TESL January 2011) for the brilliant teaching ideas shared and random jokes cracked which make each day full of happiness despite of all the workloads.

In this phase of practicum I am taking two classes; Year 4 Tun Hussein (English class) and Year 4 Tun Abdullah (PSV class). Honestly, there were days when things get so challenging; experiencing the unstable emotions, questioning the capability as a teacher, and everything that comes together in between. Yet, the moments shared with the pupils always make everything worth and it means a lot to me. Those little souls teach me how to view things differently, to be happy without reason, to be spirit-filled and energetic all the time and to appreciate every single little thing in life. Being with them for three months is only a small part of time spent in their life, but I hope the moments shared, the happiness sparked, the tears shed, and the lesson learnt will carry impacts that will last for a lifetime. I hope nothing but for each and every one of them to be great individuals someday!

Again, thank you so much to SK Green Road for this opportunity to be part of the ‘Greenians’ community. The time spent, the lesson learnt, and the memories made will be treasured in my heart forever! It is true that though the challenges were so great at times, one could discover the joy in teaching if his or her heart to teach is at the right purpose. With all my heart, I believe that this journey as Future Educator is a worth one and the ‘call’ to be a teacher is part of the blessings in my life!

The Art of Therapeutic

I had never realised that the therapy session could be a powerful medium of expression. For the last two days, we had been experiencing different types of therapy and even soaked into tears. The first session conducted was the Art Therapy. I did not intend to draw and colour things up to highlight some  of the events in my life. However, it was done unconsciously. There are lots of underlying messages behind the drawing even on the slight details. Though the interpretations could be a subjective one, but they are all closely related to my life. For the next four therapies, they were centred around different themes but related to each other: self, family and friends. They were not just conducted for us to understand the whole process, as the skills are useful in the teaching world, but also give us opportunity to express our inner feelings and emotions. It touches down to our souls.  

The sessions held also triggered us to do something that we seldom do especially in expressing love towards the people close to us. For sure, love could be express in different ways. But sometimes, it needs a kind of affirmation. It is easy to say 'I love you' to the person we love or our friends, but it will be awkward to say so with our parents especially when it is never practised at all in the family itself. I took the opportunity to do so, and it was kind of funny that my mother started to ask lots of questions, to ensure that I am okay or not. Don't worry mum, your daughter is super fine! ;)

Happy Anniversary!

13 July 2009, I met 13 unfamiliar faces and a lady who is my roomate since then! We attended our first lecture together as the smallest group in the IPG, 15 trainees. The group was completed with the coming of the two ladies on the 10th of August. Today, it has been 4 years of us walking down the path together. Used to be the smallest group for years and the most multi-ethnics group in the whole college. Though we are small in number but I am proud to have such wonderful, full of talents and great course mates. Each of us, being hand-selectively, has our own niches in different fields and the what make us Awesome! I am so thankful to have such great lecturers who constantly inspiring and encouraging us to soar high; to discover and maximise our potentials and that is what we are going to aim for in the career we are to be someday. Not just to learn and teach but to inspire the heart of the young generations. Dear TESL mates, I am glad to have each of you and thank you for being part of the 'Time of my Life'. 

Happy Anniversary to all PISMP January 2011 teacher trainees all around Malaysia!

I miss them a lot :')

pagiku cerahku,matahari bersinar
kugendong tas merah ku di pundak
slamat pagi smua ku natikan dirimu
didepan kls mu menantikan kami

guruku tersayang guruku tercinta
tanpamu apa jadiny aku
tak bisa baca tulis mengerti banyak hal
guruku terima kasih ku

nyatanya diriku kadang buat mu marah
namun segala maaf kau berikan

slamat pagi smua ku natikan dirimu
didepan kelas mu menantikan kami

guruku tersayang guruku tercinta
tanpamu apa jadiny aku
tak bisa baca tulis mengerti banyak hal
guruku terima kasih ku

nyata diriku kadang buat mu marah
namun sgala maaf kau berikan

guruku tersayang guruku tercinta
tanpamu apa jadiny aku
tak bisa baca tulis mengerti banyak hal
guruku terima kasih ku

Listening to this song and thinking that there will be no more saying 'Good morning boys and girls' tomorrow saddened me a lot. On the last day, i purposely did not want any of my pupils to cry because with all my heart i could not stand it too if it really happens. I will be in tear too. I tried my best to handle that feeling, to hide the sadness of separation behind those smiles. At one point, i just feel so emotional inside when everyone was looking at me while i was giving my 'last' advices. Of course, it is not that we are not going to meet again like forever. But somehow, between those four weeks of practicum it has formed some kind of strong emotional attachment between me and them. Plus, they are the first group of pupils i am teaching and that what makes them so special to me. There were days when i can't stand their behaviours and i scolded as well as shouted to them. With all my heart, i was so guilty after that. But that is part of the learning process for me. I should handle by emotion carefully. Despite of all the challenges, the ups and downs, the laughs burst, the awkwardness sparked, the happiness shared, i do miss them a lot. I hope they will grow not only in their knowledge but also in their personality and life as whole.

4C & 5A, SK Tabuan, you will be miss :')

Happy Practicum !

Nothing beats than seeing the pure joy from the young souls.

I am having my first practicum in SK Tabuan Kuching from 1st of April to 26th April 2013. Will be taking two English classes, 5A & 4C, five periods in each class. Both with almost 40 pupils per class. Wish me all the best!

Hello boys and girls, I am Miss May! Nice to meet you all!

Hey Rooster!

Hey Rooster!

Finally, the show was over. It was great indeed! I know everyone had given their best and most importantly, we enjoyed it so much being in The Rooster family!

I would like to express a heartfelt gratitude to our beloved mummy, Madam Angelia. Such an inspiring woman, she has always been so excited, motivated and determined in everything she does. She teaches us not only for the sake of passing the exam but the knowledge on life as whole. She is not only a producer and director for the drama but a blessing for us. She helps us to explore the different sides of ourselves as well as to discover the beauty in life and to experience so many new brand things like having ourselves on air, being published in the newspaper and even being cheered on stage just like all the actors and actresses. Even people inside and outside of the college are talking about the drama and us! What a strong vibe reflected and  i am sure that not everyone has the chance to be in that position but because of her, we were there. Yes, it saddened me too knowing the fact that she is going to retire soon. I hope she will have a great time enjoying the rest of her lives with loved ones. Once again, thank you Madam Angie! 

To my Tesl siblings, it had been a great room for us to bond and understand each other being in the production. It is not just merely on completing the assignment but a valuable learning process for us to build our profession as future educator. I know it was quite difficult for us to work things out sometimes, we even get into conflicts, reflecting some negative vibes. But i know, at the end of the day, those things are the ones that help us to understand each other more. After all the hard works and hectic times, we deserve a long pleasurable rest and that retreat was the best gateway. I know, it was quite a last minute for me to join but yes i did have a great time though it was just a short one. But i am sure that everyone was having a lot of fun there. I hope we could have another class trip in the future when everyone is able to join and create some great memories together before we graduate. And, I am sure that it will be an awesome one! :)

I would to say thank you so much too to our choristers and the helpers for willingly joining us. We really appreciate your efforts. You guys really help a lot in helping us to complete this assignment. Thank you too our beloved Director for the supports. Not to forget all the lecturers, the teacher trainees and IPBL-ians as whole. We are blessed too to have all the sponsors coming unexpectedly; Secret Recipe, Milo, Scholastic, Uni Bookstore and etc. And to Jennifer Lau, we really have a great time being on air with you the other day, thank you so much! Last but not least, thank you to our parents, friends and everyone for the undying supports. Above all, thank you God for making all these things possible :)

The Rooster Who When to His Uncle's Birthday Party

“The Rooster Who Went to His Uncle’s Birthday Party” is a play specifically written for children and the young at heart. The play has its plot taken from an old Cuban tale (retold by Alma Flor Ada) and written into a children’s play by Mdm Angie. We, the TESLians of the Institut Pendidikan Guru Kampus Batu Lintang are proud to bring this play to life. Follow us on our journey with the Rooster to his Uncle’s birthday party. Join us for the play AND the party on 23 March 2013 at 9.00 a.m.; at the Tun Ahmad Zaidi Adruce Auditorium, IPG Kampus Batu Lintang, Kuching.

'Rooster, oh Rooster'

Okay, my mind is full of the Rooster things right now and i need some air, some spaces, some entertainments! Two days off from college and Rooster, hopefully it will make enough time for me to entertain myself and have some lovely time with people around! 

I must have been mentioning the word 'Rooster' like thousand times recently. Actually, it is a drama for our LGA paper, a BIG production and part of the assignment requirement for the subject in this semester which will be performed around March and until then we will be busy with preparations. A challenge for us and i believe we are going to make it excellently well. 

P. S. This is so funny that the boys in the class started to play around with the peace sign as i have, unconsciously, posted three consecutive pictures of me making the peace sign on FB. Anyway, it does brighten our day with smiles and laughters. Something to do with happiness, don't depend on others to be happy but be the source of happiness to others. Smiles and peace always! 

Happy weekends!

2013 IPBL

Finally, my third year as Degree student has come and i can smell the air pressure around. I haven't even entered the class, the lecturers had started looking for me. Don't worry, i am in progress of looking for moves and will be burning some oils tonight to look through the script. Indeed, this is a gold opportunity for me being in that position to learn more in other perspectives of life. But still, i do need some helping hands to work on it. Dear TESL siblings, let us work together for this production and for overall activities along this semester and onwards. 

Two more years to go. May God bless this journey as future teacher and inspiring educator :)

PS. It will be a miracle if we meet, but we did not. I guess, it is save for the future.

I want to and I will

These days have been so good to me. I have had a good, happy and great day. Well yes because all the assignments and tasks were submitted. The marks are in, only left with the exam part which will start this end of month. But still, i haven't started with my revision. I am still leisurely enjoying my free time. Following activities around. But it is alright, i need some fresh air. Need to socialise with people around after weeks cramping my brain with all the assignment stuffs. 

Tomorrow, we are going to have a netball tournament. How i wish that everyone could join. Because honestly, i play for enjoyment not for the sake of winning only. If winning is the point of participating the sport, then we should start with the training earlier like months ago. It just for fun. But it's okay, all the best for us tomorrow. Do cheer for us yaa. Musical night is coming in less that 2 weeks where the show will be on 21 October, at night. Can't wait for the night to come ~ lets dance together :D The dinner was great and the RunNat was awesome! Both moments are cherished in my heart ! Looking forward for these events next year.

Today, we had this talk with our lecturer about our overall performance in study. I can feel that most lecturers are just not that happy with us. We are the first batch of TESL and the one who is spotted by the MQA in 2014. I know we should do better, not just individually but as a group. But I know we could, we want to do better and we will do excellently. Being teacher is not as easy as one thinks off. Yes, the pay is high and we get long holidays, but guaranteed job is 'NO' on next year onwards. We do need to go through some kind of interview before posting. Teaching in class is just not to make the pupils learn but we also need to take care of the classroom management, different learning style, surrounding area, tools we used in class and everything, not including the filing & records, exam, discipline problems, GERKO, and so on. Yes, every profession has it advantages and disadvantages too. But what makes teacher profession so special is that, a teacher could mould one's future whether to inspire them or to put them down. Most of us stand on our path today is because of our teachers back then. Even sometimes, children believe their teacher more than their parents. Yes, teacher holds much powers that one could think off. That is why we really need to build our proficient, not just for the sake of teaching but to inspire one, to touch the heart of the new generations.

Anyway, we have two more years to go after this semester. Yes, more focus is needed. But at the same time even though study in my priority now, i will not forget all the beautiful things that come along the way. I don't want to stuck myself with all the notes in room. I want to join other activities too. Going for a trip, dancing, participating in any competition, playing sports, outing, laughing, reading novel, playing games, spending times with family and friends, jogging or at least go for a nice evening walk. Seize every moments.

Yes, I want to and i will :)

Mixture of thoughts

Here comes the most packed week for us! Not with activities but tons of assignments. I wonder if teachers-to-be are the only humans who have the most assignments on earth. I am not here to complain. But just to leave a note that i might not be available for couple of days or a week maybe. Hopefully everything will be just alright, run smoothly without too much stress air along the way or stressed people. But don't worry, we are going to make this! Hwaiting to all my tesl siblings and mates.

Remember, i posted something about how we were being quite disrespect with some lecturers weeks ago. It happened again today. Yet, no one is to be blame. I can't read his heart, but his expression showed what he exactly felt. Please don't do it any more. Have some hearts. They deserve respects though they might not speak they way we understand or spoon-feed us with comprehensible inputs. I regard us all as young adults, who know to look for knowledge by ourselves not to solely depend on the lecturers itself. Even though we score high marks, own a beautiful face, have lots of money but without good hearts and attitudes, all are nothing at all. 

At times, i can sense some 'unhappiness' air around. It makes me want to be home. Even though i am so used to be far away from home, but if i were asked the thing i  wanted the most right now, it will be home.

Most of the times, my thought is not burdened by the assignments or my study part but it is mostly on my life. As if something is unsure about the path even though i am doing well. As if something is missing. Dear God, give me strength to face whatever is it that lies ahead. 

3 years Anniversary

13 July 2012

Hmm.. I can't understand why people are talking about today's date, as if something is wrong somewhere. Anyway, it is a special date for all the PPISMP July 2009 intake ! Happy 3rd year anniversary fellow teacher trainers ! 2.5 more years to go ~ jiayouuu ! We made half through of the journey ! Yeayy !

To my fellow TESL siblings in IPBL, thank you for the great and wonderful journey ! I know, it is going to be quiet a tough journey for us as we are one of the spotted batches for MQA ! But, I truly believe that we are going to make it through together ! 

Picture taken during the last week of our first semester in foundation year.

Updates

The second week of the new semester is almost over. But, i am still not able to tune myself with the study environment ! I have been pampering myself for most of the time, like being so RELAX as if there is no task to be completed. I have lost my interest in Facebook-ing and updating my blog. I guess, i don't have that much things to pour out anymore. But still, the heart-pounding excitement of going for a convoy is still there. Yes, I really want to have another round of it!

I just feel so blessed with everything. I have had a great day attending every lecture, not because of the study part, but because i enjoy being around my classmates. Somehow, I feel the bond between us has grown so much closer. We crack jokes everyday and even laugh at the same jokes over times ! How wonderful it is ! In less than two weeks, it will be our 3rd year anniversary! 3 years? That is so fast. Too much memories created along the way, and i am just so thankful for having them throughout my journey of life. Years to come, we might find ourselves walking in different parts, channelling all the knowledge we have gotten to the new generation. Yet, this circle of friendship should not be broken, will keep you all in my heart always :) 

Thank you for everything ~ PISMP TESL Jan 2011 IPBL

The Gatherings & Events

These are some pictures on gathering and events from January to March !

CNY 2012

I have written down my CNY's day story in my previous post but forgot to attach pictures, so here they are!

The last house of the day, Mr Lai's house. I love his house, full of drawings and art. There is even a small music room which makes me want to have one in the future. 

The gorgeous ladies of the day! Taken at Png's house.

Steamboat

We also went to steamboat which was on earlier Feb. i am so in love with steamboat, especially the yummy lok lok.

Mr Mario's farewell party

This was a farewell party for Mr Mario. He was a consultant in the language department. however he had transferred to IPBA. Here was the night of celebration, not for goodbye, but for wishing him all the best for his future. you'll be missed mr mario! the dinner was held at Fullhouse, Pullman. I love the environment so much, especially the blue antique car outside the restaurant.

Battle of the Band 2012

This was the last event organised by us (JPP). Though it was a tiring week of going out and in the college, running here and there to settle up everything, but it worth. the night was awesome! all the performances was greatly performed. you know, it is not easy to play a band. the best vocalist went to nur fazilah, oliviamate. hehe. and the champion band of the year went to STON. congrats to the winners and the other bands. you guys rock!!

'TESL GET TOGETHER' night

The most recent event that we had was the 'TESL GET TOGETHER' night. this was the night where all the teslians in IPG gather together. that night, my classmates had decided to come out with Hawaiian outfit style! you know, we became the spotlight of the night when the other tesl's classes just wear their own t-shirt class. at first, it was a little awkward walking around with these outfits. but then it turned out that other classes were praising us! yeah, we rock the night!!

KOT 2012 IPBL

Tomorrow will be our KOT day and will continue until the next day. as usual, i will be participating in track event which are 800m, 1500m and 4x400m. i know that i never win any single medal from the first time i follow the KOT event, but it never also make my spirit of running to fade away. i may be slow, but i will never stop. you know your spirit of doing something does not only portrayed through your action but also from your inner side. the same goes in participating in a event, mental and emotiona play a vital role for one to continue running. i will give my best, not only for the events i am taking but also for my life! Once again, i am going to be the 'pompom' girls for this KOT just like 5 years ago during the HKSBP at smesh. but this time we are going to dance in a large group, almost 40 people. that will be fun !!

My coming holidays !

But the best part of all, i am travelling in few more days. you know how much i love travelling! this will be my first vacation to oversea! I am going for a pilgrim at Medan from 10 - 14 mac. my flight to KL will be on this friday night and will meet my mum and sister there with the other participants for this pilgrim. i am so excited for it! hopefully everything will go well. pray for our safe journey yaa.

Date: 17 sept 2011

Time: 7 am - 12 pm

Updates

I had gone through hectic hours and filled my days with completely packed events. But i thank God that everything turns out awesomely great!

Within this week, we had some events going on which were the 'ceramah peyuburan diri' on the whole day of Wednesday where i learnt nothing because i was so tired and sleepy to make myself stay focus. On Thursday we had three things going on which were the Merdeka celebration in the morning and Ramah Tamah in the afternoon. At night, we went for the Merdeka Raya Concert ! Something like that i guess but it was great!

This is me with my so-called Baju Raya

Then, my Friday was spent with us decorating our spot for ELF from 8 am to 1 am something with only two or three hours gap for rest, isn't that onderful right? yesterday, we were enjoying ourselves and elf-ing around!

But out of all, i have had my wonderful time yesterday singing at Kbox, Spring with my darlings, mimi and faz. We were singing like the world is ours. The sound system was really great, just like a concert !

It is an ...!

Yesterday, we played a games during T-L activity for one of my classmates. The activity was to draw an animal. So the first person drew it and pass to the next person to re-drew it. And here it how it went...

then, pass to mas

luckily, faz make it looks better...

so, can you guess what is the animal???

It's an APE !

Welcome back !

A warm 'welcome back' to collogue to all teacher trainers around Malaysia! yeah, i am back to Batu Lintang ! gonna be a busy week of orientation with the newcomer juniors soon. but its okay, i am sure that it will be a blast week! as usual, my biro will be in charge with the malam persembahan for the juniors, hopefully everything will go well. there will be 9 groups of classes for this intake. 6 of them are TESL-ians. yeah, they gonna be a new group of babies for TESL community in IPBL. actually, we have this kind of culture in TESL family, which is to call the new intake TESL as babies. and the TESL seniors will be called as toddlers! and our lecturers are the beloved mummy and daddy here. hence, that makes us to be 1 big family of TESL here. our seniors will be back from Otago next year. so the number of TESL-ians will grow and grow here!

Sometimes, people tend to label TESL-ians as 'show off' with what we are to be and the language that we spoke. but please note that we are still learning and need to practice and apply the knowledge that we got. the same goes to 'you' and i am sure that 'you' are familiar with the statement 'practice makes perfect'. yet we are not here in this position to be perfect but we just want to improve our proficiency. we are not showing off anything, we are just OUTSPOKEN, at times!

Our institute is in progress of upgrading some of the building, so there will be construction everywhere. which also means, spreading of dusts and unpleasant sounds from the builder machine. but its okay cause less than 2 years everything will be back to normal.

Anyway, a warm welcome to all the juniors of PPISMP Jun 2011 intake to IPBL Kuching. Welcome to the road of education, enjoy the ride people!

BIG, MUET & JPP

I am going to have two big things to do this coming week.

The first one is my BIG. It is a 4 days camp which are compulsory for all the future teachers. It will be held at Kem Alapong, Lundu and we are going to sleep in the tent for 3 nights! I can't wait for it, yaayy!! Lots of activities will be carry out and the best thing about those activities are; they are all mostly the adventurous one like jungle trekking, up selling, kayak -ing and so on. I am going to have my sunburn but that doesn't matter at all, I am used to it. Plus, it will be only for once a while to have my skin sunburned! Really can't wait for it and I hope that everything will go well. I will upload some pictures for our BIG.

The second thing is that I am going to have my MUET test on speaking also next week, which is on the second day of BIG day. So, some of us (my classmates) are going back to the college and after the test finishes, we will be back to the camp site. Hopefully, I won't be missing to join any of the activities, especially those which I like the most. For MUET, I will give my best. 

Another thing is that, I was chosen to be one of the JPP members this year and I am under Biro Seni Warisan. This is the first time!! Though I know it will be a tough road ahead, but for sure it is the process of learning for me to develop my potential and learn more about the sweetness and bitterness of becoming the future educator. Pray for me ya.

English

Suddenly, I miss to speak English. Though, I am not a good speaker and sometimes my pronunciation is out of place, still I feel that I am getting good in English. Even, in some of my earlier posts, I did mention how hard is it for me to cope with English and sometimes I become so emotional just because of the difficulties. See, how pathetic I was then.

I still remember, at the very beginning studying this course, TESL, I called my cousin, ray, begging for advices on how to study English. And her answer is only one, read English story books. At first, I was like, how am I going to read an English book when my 'interest' is not there. But, I guess that advice did work. So I just read and at last, I was addicted to it, maybe not really, but kind of. Because after some times didn't read, I will start asking books from my friends. Please lend me one! So people, one way to learn English is to read a lot, but English books of course!

Another thing that I notice is that by keep on reading English books, my confidence with the language also increase! At first, i find it hard to blog in English because I feel that my English is not good. Later, people will laugh at me. But now, I don't care about it any more because I am still learning the language. Those mistakes are made for me to learn.

I feel blessed that in my class (now), we have some good speakers; those who speak English fluently. Actually, they know how to speak Malay, but still they use English with us. So everyday when we meet, I have the chance to speak English with them. Thank you classmates!! It is also an advantage for us as we are taking four subjects which use English as the medium of instruction. So all the presentations, tasks and assignments must be in English.

And now, I am missing English environment. Never mind, in one week times, I will enter that environment again! For now, let me just speak my Sabahan language. Buli bah kalu ko!!
