Andre Dane, who resides in Barangay Gargaritano, Guimbal Iloilo, is a SPA
coordinator for Teachers I at the Guimbal National High School. He teaches under the
Junior High School MAPEH Department and holds a Bachelor's degree in Physical
Education majoring in dance and sports from West Visayas State University. With eight
years of teaching experience to his credit, he brings extensive knowledge and expertise to
elements, and techniques. The teacher created a lively and inclusive learning environment where
students actively participated in their own learning. The class began with a warm-up activity, followed
by student-led discussions and collaborative activities to explore and understand different dance forms.
I felt inspired and engaged throughout the observation. Witnessing the students' enthusiasm and
passion for dance was truly uplifting. The positive energy in the classroom promotes a sense of joy and
creativity among both the students and the teacher. I also felt a strong sense of respect and mutual
support among the students, which enhanced the overall learning experience.
The learner-centered approach was evident in the class as the teacher encouraged students to
express themselves and make decisions about their learning. The use of group discussions and
collaborative activities allowed students to share their knowledge, ideas, and personal experiences
related to dance positions. This approach facilitated a deeper understanding of the subject matter and
promoted active engagement among the students. By incorporating student-led discussions and
collaborative activities, the teacher created a space for students to develop their critical thinking skills
and express their individuality. This approach not only enhanced their understanding of dance forms

education. By empowering students to take an active role in their learning, the teacher created an
environment that promotes creativity, self-expression, and collaboration. The students were able to
explore different dance forms and techniques while developing their own unique style and artistic
voice. To further promote learner-centered teaching in dance education, I plan to incorporate more
opportunities for student-led activities, discussions, and creative exploration in my own teaching
practice. I will strive to create an inclusive and supportive environment that encourages students to
actively engage with the subject matter and express their creativity through dance. Additionally, I will
