Autobiographical Essay
On Sunday, December 12, 1999, a small room was filled with joy and delight for a split
second when I was delivered from my mother's womb. They believe the baby did not
survive the delivery because they did not hear me cry, and the room is filled with worry
and stillness as a result. I was covered in vernix casseosa, a white, cheesy substance
that protects the baby inside the womb. The "comadrona" ripped the sheet that covered
my face, and I burst out crying. My parents and grandparents are happy, particularly my
grandfather on my father's side because I am the one who will carry and propagate their
name.
I wanted to go to school when I was four years old because I wanted to wear a uniform,
shoes, and a school bag with wheels below it. My mother hired a tutor to help me
prepare for elementary school. I attended Travesia Elementary School, which was only
a short walk from our house. My elementary school years were filled with joy, adversity,
and achievement. I have always liked Mathematics and Science subjects; I also assist
my classmates in multiplication, division, and science; I enjoy drawing the components
of our body's five sense organs; and when we have a group activity, I always volunteer
to be the leader. After our afternoon session, I always have a good time playing on the
school fields and playground. I was regularly tormented at school because I am
overweight, I am usually weeping, and I have never fought back. The moment has
arrived for me to shine; I joined the volleyball club in sixth grade and advanced to
Palarong Pambansa in Pangasinan. My body and stamina have improved, and I am no
longer overweight!

Learning Outcomes
1. Do you have background on the PPST? How was your PPST Learning
Journey when you took up the subject The Teaching Profession?
Yes, at first we discuss and learn the National Competency-Based
Teacher Standards (NCBTS) about the sets of competencies that each
teacher must possess to function effectively and satisfactorily. Then we
proceed in learning the Philippine Professional Standard for Teachers
(PPST), discussing the seven domains and four career stages that will
help teachers to reflect and improve the quality of education.
3. What is your understanding of the PPST? What do you like about it?
PPST establishes clear expectations for teachers at well-defined
career stages of professional development, from beginning to
distinguished practices, engages teachers in an ongoing effort to
achieve proficiency, and employs a uniform measure to assess teacher
performance, identify needs, and provide professional development
support. The PPST emphasizes what teachers are supposed to know,
be able to accomplish, and value in their jobs.
4. How do you think could the PPST and the Career Stages help you as a
future teacher?
The PPST and career phases serve as a guide for every teacher to
enhance the quality of education for every Filipino student, as well as
the quality of teaching for teachers, and to deliver advantages for
societal improvements.
Now, after going over your notes or reading the provisions in the DepEd Order NO. 42
s. 2017 and watching the videos, feel free to share your insights by completing the
following sentences:
a) After reading varied sources and watching the videos, I realized that PPST is that
the teacher quality is defined by the Philippine Professional Standards for
Teachers. The standards define the rising levels of knowledge, practice, and
professional involvement expected of instructors. Simultaneously, the standards
enable for instructors' improving expertise, which may then be used with greater
complexity across a larger and more complicated variety of teaching/learning
circumstances.
c) The link between domains, strands and indicators in the PPST shows broad
conceptual realm of teaching and learning practices defined by particular strands in
the set of professional standards for teachers, with more specific dimensions of
teacher practice under each domain in the set of professional standards for
teachers within each strand and by the help of the indicators, offer specific,
observable, and quantifiable teacher behaviors/practices addressed in each strand
of the set of professional standards for teachers.
“I entered the classroom with the conviction that it was crucial for me and every
other student to be an active participant, not a passive learner
consumer…Learning is a place where paradise can be created.”
(Bell Hooks, 1994)
Learning Outcomes
At the end of this episode, you will be able to determine a school environment
that is physically, psychologically, and socially supportive of learning.
The local school is in a rural area of Southern Leyte. The students are hardworking and
dedicated to their education, which is why the school was named the top elementary school
in the country based on the National Achievement Test results. This was accomplished
through the collaboration of teachers, the support of parents, and the perseverance of
students in their studies.
The students actively participate in different activities through playing games prepared by
the teacher, the teacher demonstrates how to involve all the students in discussing the
lesson through a simple activity or games, this shown the teacher being creative and
innovative on how to teach the lesson more interesting and student-friendly.
The students are in good relation to their teachers and classmates. The teacher gives some
words to encourage the students to continue their studies despite the hardship they
experience every day. The students showed respect to their classmates and teachers, there
are no competition taking place among students, they helped each other during difficult
lessons and they have peer tutoring to help their other classmates excel in their subjects.
This is more like to be a good example of a healthy relationship among teachers and
students, that is why teachers must uphold this kind of practice or culture inside the
classroom to have a good learning experience and no one would leave behind.
The students showed how to be satisfied with what you only have despite the needs of
necessities in their everyday take just to continue their study. The teachers are very
innovative in providing space despite the school are lacking facilities and materials. With
these frustrations, they encounter they never let this be a hindrance in pursuing a quality
education. The students are very compassionate in learning and the teachers are very
dedicated in teaching using different styles of teaching methods to provide quality education
to the students, thus it would be good if the teachers provide alternatives to cover what the
school and students are lacking by means of innovation and good teaching strategies.
The students showed how active they can be if the learning process is interactive and fun.
The teacher prepares an activity or game related to the lesson, using some flashcards and
stationary where the teacher lets the students have a collaborate with their classmates. This
kind of method of teaching helps the students to comprehend the lesson being discuss and
helps them to be critical in thinking for the answers. It will be good if the teacher tries other
teaching strategies to determine what other teaching strategies can use that are suitable for
different kinds of intelligence among the students.
1. Based on the documentary video, what are the salient points that you have
observed on the teachers role and tasks?
Based on the documentary, I observed that the teachers do some other
tasks that are not frequently seen inside a classroom in a face-to-face
setting, because the role of the teachers has changed and a lot of work
has been added to them as a result of the pandemic. The module kits
are prepared by the teachers, and they include handmade face masks
(made by the teacher) as well as some important school supplies. The
modules are distributed by the teachers to their designated drop
stations. The teachers walk or ride several kilometers to remote villages.
Teachers make significant sacrifices for their profession, but in
exchange, they do not have enough time for their loved ones. They do
this type of task that cannot be seen inside the actual classroom in order
to provide education to their students.
2. What are the salient points that you have observed on the role of the
parents?
Based on the documentary, I observed the parents' love for their
children, and how they do whatever work they can in exchange for
money so that they can put food on the table and support their children's
education. The parents make significant sacrifices and endure physical
aches and pains to continue working, which can be exchanged for
money and food.
3. With what you have watched, what are the implications of the new normal
that you can think of on the part of the learners?
`The new normal I believe that it makes it harder for students to learn
correctly; some students are fortunate to have gadgets and a nice
atmosphere in which to study, while others are denied of technology
that may assist them in learning and a comfortable setting in which to
study. The pandemic has taken a heavy toll on the students portrayed in
the documentary. In terms of student safety, the new typical
environment, on the other hand, advantages the majority. Students can
identify their learning phase through modular learning.
Learning Outcomes
Activity 1
4. How much content does the teacher know and how many teaching
approaches does he need to use in teaching his subject for him/her to
become an effective teacher?
Teachers can utilize their subject expertise to better arrange and
apply content information for their pupils to grasp. Furthermore,
teachers are more likely to be able to adapt to the requirements of
each given classroom, identifying pupils who are struggling and
modifying the way information is delivered to make it more
understandable. That is why teachers require a diverse set of abilities
and attitudes in order to help their pupils reach high levels of success.
Being an effective teacher entails developing connections with
students, subject matter expertise, and a grasp of pedagogical
procedures in order to acquire the necessary understanding.
6. How do these PK and PCK affect to the teaching and learning process?
A teacher with extensive pedagogical understanding knows how
students create information and gain abilities, as well as how they
establish mental habits and good attitudes toward learning. PCK
entails being aware of common misconceptions and alternative ways
of looking at them, the importance of forging connections between
different content-based ideas, students' prior knowledge, alternative
teaching strategies, and the flexibility that comes from exploring
alternative ways of looking at the same idea or problem, all of which
are required for effective teaching.
3. How did the teaching and learning process take place considering the
different teaching approaches and principles of teaching and learning?
The teaching and learning process already takes place before the
actual discussion of the lesson wherein the teacher prepare the lesson
to be taught and during the discussion, the teacher now transfers the
information to the students by means of different strategies in teaching
to connect easily to the students according to their different learning
style to enhance their learning. It starts by assessing the learning
needs, establishing specific learning objectives, developing teaching
and learning strategies, implementing the plan of work, and evaluating
the outcomes of the instructions.

Do they interact with one another and with the teacher?
I observed frequent participation of students during the class discussion. At
the beginning the teacher ask the students to sing a song and the students
performs. Every time the teacher ask questions the students immediately
answers and participates during group activities. The interaction of the
students and the teacher are maintained throughout the whole period.
2. Observe the learners seated in front and at the back of the classroom. How do
they behave and interact? Were those seated in front most active than those
seated at the back?
All the students participated well during the lesson. Students seated at the
front are more active during recitation than those at the back. Some students
that are not called their names during recitation feel frustrated to answer the
question.
4. Who among the pupils actively participated? Do some of them ask for most help?
Most of the time students at the front were actively participating during class
discussion. Sometimes few students needs help when ask a question, but
more importantly after that students do now understand their misconceptions.
5. What transpires when the teacher asks questions to the class? Are the pupils
participate actively? What happens when a pupil cannot answer the question? Do
others raise their hands to answer or they help their classmates?
When the teacher ask questions some of the students immediately raises
their hand to recite the answer and when they answer wrong the teacher ask
the students to help their classmate. When there is no one raising their hand
to recite teacher now call names to recite their answer.

2. As soon-to-be teacher in the near future, what kind of teaching and learning
process will you have in your classroom considering learners’ diversity?
As soon to be a teacher I will encourage active learning inside the classroom
wherein students will not only listen to what the teacher teaches but the
students will be involved in what they are being learned through group study,
group discussion, and demonstrations. Grouping the students by their learning
style, not by their ability, using mixed ability groups can promote learning,
especially when students get the opportunity to coach or teach their peers
this I can create a place where the students learn in similar ways together.
Learning Outcomes
Activity 1
1. Why should teacher find out if pupils understand the lesson while teaching is in
progress?
The teacher should find out if pupils understand the lesson while teaching is in
progress to ensure that learning is going on while in the process of teaching.
This is also to ensure that before the teacher proceeds further or comes near
the end of the chapter or lesson, the students understood the lesson.
2. Did the pupils make the teacher sense they did not understand the lesson? How?
The pupils sometimes demonstrates scratching of their head, fidgeting, writing
lines on the paper or playing with their hair. In video, the students are given
set of mathematical exercises to solve and only few got the perfect score and
the other pupils are taking too much time to answer.

Learning Outcomes
Learning Task
1. Identify the various stakeholders within the school and community in relation to
teaching profession, and identify the different ways in which we involve these
stakeholders in the educative process.
2. Being a pre-service teacher, how will you be able to build relationship with the
different community partners?
It was the last week of February and the School Head of Benzon High School
called the first Parent-Teacher Conference. Teacher Janelle, a Grade 7 Adviser
was excited to give the class cards for his 35 learners. On the day of the first
Parent-Teacher Conference, she was expecting all parents invited would be
present. However, there were only five (5) parents who attended. Majority could
not come due to some concerns. She got worried because it was already the
end of the school day, and she had yet to give 45 class cards to parents who
regretted to attend.
1. Based on Teacher Janelle’s case, what do you think is the challenge for her?
The challenge that Teacher Janelle is facing is the lack of communication and
commitment of the parents as if it was doesn’t matter attending the
parent-teacher conference. The other challenge Teacher Janelle is facing is
that she doesn’t have the opportunity to talk to the parents of her students and
present the class card which is the fruit of the hardship of their children.
2. If you experience the same problem in the future. What would you think is
the reason why many parents do not attend Parent-Teacher Conferences?
The reason I think first is that parents don’t have time to go to school to attend
because they are already preoccupied with their houses, some of which are
taking care of their little children, and there are instances that they don’t have
interest in attending. There are some parents who are busy working or working
out of town and also there are some guardians who have no strength to travel
because of old age.
List down school activities that you still remember that involves the community
(colleagues, parents, and the community) and their role/functions in the community.
