2nd Reflection of MMSEL



I remember when I still study in senior high school, in grade XI. I learnt mathematics with Mr. Fuad. Mr. fuad is very friendly. He knew about all us. He did not only teach mathematics, but in several time we often talk about everything. He often spoke about our girlfriend or boyfriend, to make a joke, and make my class become so funny. He is not only friendly and comfortable. He also was explaining about material clearly. He made mathematics become very simple and easy.
I also remember when he motivated me. He was comparing me with my friend in another class. He said “how can you lose with your friend, he have did answer “Student Worksheet” until topic 3, you still topic 2”. From that I have spirit and motivation to answer all questions in “Student Worksheet”. Finally, I answer all questions in “Student Worksheet” until topic 6, whereas we still discuss in beginning topic 2. 
If I was connecting with MMSEL course at the last meeting. We discuss about Maslow’s theories, I think Mr. Fuad  had given student’s need and safety. And Mr. Fuad also give student’s belonging, so that the student felt comfortable in the class. I hope I can be Mr. Fuad next time.
