Well today was my last day working with my 2nd period cooperating teacher. This has been a rewarding experience and I have learned so much. As a result of this experience I was able to build a rapport with my students which made this a good experience and helped me practice and see how important rappore is when dealing with my students in the future. I also learned how to manage good consistant classroom management because my cooperating teacher was very good at managing that. while interning at Akins I gained an insight on some of the things I need to improve and reflect on if i want to be a good teacher, especially my tone of voice and overall demeaner, when dealing with collegues and school personal. I also was able to experience group teaching which is something that I know most teachers don’t do in schools today but because of this I will work extra hard at trying to incorporate this into my teaching.
The students of course had different personalities but this was good practice for me at getting to work with multiple personalilites so I think in the future I am more prepared. Akins student body is different I will admit but the kids are all awesome little people. I hope that in the future,as a result of this experience it makes me a better and more effective teacher for my students.
This was a sad day for me because I will mess my students, they were great and I have learned more from being with them then they’ll ever know. I will truly miss being in the classroom. But like all things good things always come to an end. And so that is the case here, the end.
