Pedagogy class for this week (3rd week)

Pedagogy class starts in the morning at 8 o'clock. So it was quite a challenge for me to wake up early for class, also to prevent from stuck at the traffic jam. Our class tutor for this subject is Mr Wan Kamaran. Class lesson for this week was the explanation of the assignments and the School of Thought-Theories. We have not started with the chapters yet as notes have not been uploaded into Uniec Virtual. There are only few of us, not exceeding 10 so there are no problem to stay focus. The only problem was sleepiness. And a hungry stomach. Thank God Mr Wan understand these and we had a 15 minutes break to take a nap and have breakfast. So I decided breakfast it is. We finish the class around 10.30am and pedagogy is my only class for the whole Tuesday.

Teaching Philosophy

Teaching philosophy is putting beliefs into practices by showing examples or anticipating in classroom. As a student who currently studying education in language and literature majoring English, I need to have my own teaching philosophy. God wills it, I am a future teacher or lecturer. One of my teaching philosophy is not to be a scary teacher. One thing I learn from having a scary teacher is that they are able to discipline the students fast but the students only listen because they were scared, not because they truly respect them. As for me, respect is one of the highest form of moral ever planted in a soul. Those who do not respect shows they have low morality. I want to not only become my students' tutor but also a friend they need. I don't want their personal problem to affect their studies. But don't get me wrong, befriending my own students does not mean I will give them full access to step on me, it simply means I'm being slightly lenient with them. Apart from t...

Life Goals

I have a lot of life goals. I started to set my life goal when I was in primary school . One of m y career life goal was to be a doctor. Well of course that was not the only ambition I had before . My backup ambitions are to be either a scientist or teacher, if I happen to not able to be a doctor. I really wanted to be a doctor before, because that was what my dad wanted me to be. He wanted me to cure him for his disease, his no cure disease. He wanted me to find the cure so that I can help him and a lot of other people as well. But I lost him even before I finish my diploma. And my pointer drop to the point where I am not eligible to apply medic courses for degree, not even accepted for any d egree courses in UiTM. But I am fine with that. One of m y backup ambition is to be a te acher, and I like what I learn now. So, I make my path to be a degree student in Unitar International University. I hope this will be the best choice I ever make in my life. In loving memory ( Sept 5 1962-...

Education is vital

Welcome to my blog! To be honest, this is not the first blog I ever created. The first one still under construction and I only visited it once, which was the sign up session. That was the first and last time I visited it. The second one, which is this blog, will be the one I'm going to update every week. There will be a lot of mistakes here and there and probably going to look gloomy as I'm still learning on how to handle a blog but I will learn, I will improve to make this blog an interesting one for you to read. 💖💖💖
