Teacher is person who teaches us the new knowledge in this world. Everybody can be as a teacher for other person. Not only at schools but in real life we are also act as teacher. I have a principle that a teacher is not God who always true and knows anything. That is arrogant teacher. I think as a teacher, someone not only teaches but can learn something from students. So, teachers also have to learn to develop their teaching methodologies and their knowledge itself.
The first meeting of this course, I think is interesting enough. Miss Ine who will teach us for this semester especially for PETA course is kind. It makes me feel enjoy during the course. Actually, I do not know more about the benefit we learn this subject but after last meeting my understanding increase. In my opinion we should learn PETA because we need understanding about how we teach and give assessment to our students effectively. Maybe effective in this case talk about effective of time, cost, method of teaching and assignments. The last meeting give me the fact that teacher who teach in classroom is really different with teacher who teach private student. Teacher in classroom have to have skill of time management, grabbing attention, and they also should know condition of the students itself.
I really like sharing session in pair. I remember that we should share to our friend about the most inspiring teacher in our life. That was really useful for me, I can know the story about inspiring teacher from my classmate and from that I can understand the characteristic of ideal teacher who always dreamed by students. In the last session, we also talk about what kind of teacher who we like the most and the teacher who we dislike. I have a lot of new information and I think I can use it as a mirror. So, when I am being a teacher I do not do the things that students hate. This session make me remember my teachers. I have 3 teachers who I like most. All of them are male but they are the best teacher I ever see. They are care to the students, never angry, they know when we need to be serious and when we feel bored. Their technique of teaching also interesting, they always give example from the real life so it makes the students understand easily.
After sharing session we have to divide into groups. I think that is permanent group for this semester for PETA. In groups we discuss about what is the meaning of effective learning and teaching. Then we have gallery walk, but there is no one who explain. Everybody moves on. I think our opinion is same. Most of us write effective teaching and learning will appear if the students use the true technique for their students. They also have to know the development of students itself, so they can mix and match the way of teaching. So, we can make our standard assessment for our students. It is better than we force the standard from government to students. I think it makes our students being stressed.
The most interesting session is when we discuss the characteristic teacher who we dreamed. All of groups answer that a teacher should competent in materiel, good looking, kind; have good skill when teaching, not always serious, never give body punishment, etc. That thing as a lead for me to be good teacher because all of that comes from ourselves who ever feel be students. The most important teacher has to learn and not only teach. I think this sentence can be representative of our answers.
In the end of session Miss Ine tells us to fill in questioner and write our hopes, goal and fears of this course on post it. For me, my hopes is I can apply what my lecture give to me and what I learn when I teach someday. So, I can be effective teacher for my students. Teacher who teach and asses my students effectively. The teacher who can be inspired my students to be better and better. My hopes and goals are not only getting good score but also I understand deep about this course. I am afraid that sometimes maybe I will feel sleepy and bored so I cannot understand the course. After that, we put our post it in flip chart. It can be remembered for me when I get down or lazy.
