Narrative Report/Reflection:

TEACHING Practice teaching is very much meaningful especially for the practitioner wherein you are being
exposed of what really is the field of teaching. In addition, practice teaching serves as a training ground for
the aspirant teachers to fully equipped with skills and knowledge. After grasping learning of teaching
profession we need to experience it in real scenario because I truly believed that knowledge has no value
unless we put it into practice.

February 13 to 16 2023 my first dmonstration teaching in Gosi National High School. When my practice
teaching started,I felt mixed emotions where I don’t know what would happen to me on the first day of
demonstration. Teaching for me is like being a shepherd and the students are my flock. As a shepherd, I
am held responsible for my flock. I have to make sure that everyone is all accounted for, that everyone is
healthy and well while they are at my watch. I serve as the students guide as they walk across an uncertain
path; whenever a sheep is lost I have to make sure that he/she will be back on track to keep up with the
other sheep. I also have to keep them well groomed and make sure that everything about them from
head to toe is tidy including their surroundings.

My practice teaching journey became more challenging and exciting because of the
students. This was another venue for me to enhance my teaching skills and to meet various people
with different personalities.

Teaching for me is like being a Game Master. I have to prepare educational games for my
students for them to be enticed with the topic. As a game master, I must see to it that everyone is
abiding the games mechanics that everyone is participating and most importantly everyone is having
fun. Lastly, teaching for me is like being an actress. I should be able to present myself with poise and
confidence in everything that I do. I have to look my best in every class appearances.

And even though I am not feeling well or I am not in the mood to teach I still must act like there is no
problem. Like an actress, the class must always go on in spite of of any interruptions.
Teaching is indeed a noble profession because teachers must go an extra mile in order to deliver
quality learning to their students. It is a kind of job that many have ventured but only few has
managed to fulfill the real duty. Teaching is a profession that extends beyond the realms in the four
corners of the classroom. In teaching we impose discipline and strict compliance with the school's
policy but at the same time we also show mercy and compassion towards our students. In teaching,
we don't just teach-we care.
