Last of my internship-
I’ve learnt to trust what I know and believe in myself as a teacher. I often holding very high expectations of myself I’ve felt at times like I haven’t measured up to the standards of a quality teacher. Though looking back at my reflections now, I realise my capacity to learn from mistakes, recognise where improvements can be made and acknowledge when teaching strategies and tasks have worked well. I believe that reflective practice is a major element to becoming a quality teacher. With this in mind, I now feel that I’m well on my way to becoming just that.
My supervising teacher has been more than supportive, something I will be ever grateful for and hope that one day I will pass on this gift to another pre-service teacher.
As my pre-service teacher training draws to an end I am a little sad to say goodbbye to such a massive chapter in my life, yet I am eagrly jumping into the next, with open arms and an open mind. I can’t wait to have my own class of children to learn and grow with!
Now all I need is someone to employ me. Lots of job applications and interviews await!
