Am I Really A Teacher?
Dasrizal, 2010110019
The
question is always same. It never changes day by day. I have experienced many days to teach, to educate, to interact with
kids. However, it always comes to me. I have tried to believe…I have tried to
love. Am I Really A Teacher?
This fifth semester in Sampoerna School of Education
will be great. I see some topics relate each other, such as Motivation Managing Classroom for Effective
Teaching and Affective Instruction. Those
courses, definitely prepare me how to be a good teacher from now on and
forever.
The first meeting of MMSEL course was good. Along the
session, I reflect myself whether I have chosen a right decision. However, when
students were asked who were going to be a teacher, I answered me. Otherwise, right now I am still thinking about
the things I can still do beside teaching…such as writing and exploring music.
Somehow I have felt that teaching is a passion of me, but I can’t let writing
and music go from my life. If I were asked which one I have to choose, I can’t.
In fact, I have experienced many things in the
context of teaching and education. I love it so much and I can let it go from
my daily lives. Then finally I decided that, yeah, teaching is in my soul.
When I decide “yes, I am a teacher”, the next
question is “am I really a teacher?”
I define teachers to be someone who is awesome. They
teach, they educate, they inspire, and they motivate. Do I really have those
kinds of quality? I am always wondering and questioning. I think that I already
teach. I feel that somehow I already educate. Otherwise, have I inspired and
motivated my students?
Let this semester through Motivation Managing Classroom for Effective
Teaching guides me to find the answer…
