Climate Variables in my reflection

Climate Variables was taught by Mrs.Muryadi last Tuesday. I just remember about myself who still learn about being a teacher. I’m who still a student in a University and I were who a student in my past School (Elementary and Secondary school). Just want to reflect to myself as student point of you. Because honestly I’m always enjoy my classes since I’m being a learner in university, and then I asked to myself “Why are you so confidence and enjoy your study although it was very difficult?” I think I know myself. And I know that it is because it is who I’m and I always feel being safe to be here with myself where everyone respects my feeling (safe or unsafe). Where everyone knows that good environment help well in learning processes (everyone suppose to be my lectures). Then also in my experience as student, i didn’t like the condition when I have to be expert in all topic of a course or I have to be expert in all courses. “lu pikir, gampang apa?” that is my grumbling which hidden in my heart when I demanded indirectly  by both my teachers and my parents.

Those experiences were experience about (order and safety) and success. On my whole experience in teaching, I think I wasn’t implement good environment yet. It means about the order and safety. Since it is very important to make my student feeling good and help them in study, as a teacher candidate I have to improve my patient when faced my students. Hehehe. For me I’m a kind teacher, my students feel enjoy with me (they said) but sometime when I faced my students I used joke with high level voice. Although I don’t know how they feel about my language but I need to be more careful in future in using language and voice tone. Make sure that I will not do this again, make sure I will make my students feel safe with me.

 I told in first paragraph that I didn’t like when I have to be expert in all courses. Although in my secondary school I was a smart girl ( hehehe) and I can handle everything, but I didn’t like demanded to expert all the courses. Still I can’t be expert in Sport. It make me so less of confidence. And also I was little bit “stupid” in some topic in mathematics. And my sport teacher and my mathematics teacher just push and push me to do my best without give something which developing my confidence. So I just did these without any passion. But now I know that my complaint to teacher is not easy for them. Because now I’m in teacher point of you and I have experienced it that I is very not easy. So, as a teacher candidate what I have to do? I think I need to improve my communication skills and my influencing skills for guide my students in develop their self efficacy. When my students not confidence about some topic so I can help them, and to help them I need to read more, learning more, practice more to improve my teaching skill that will make my students feel confidence in their learning.

Then what about challenge? I like challenges. So I know that my students also like challenges. In my teaching experience I think I was not gave my students challenges yet. So it made my students just exited in beginning of the lesson because there was a brain teaser. I need to challenge them more. In my own side, I need to make some interesting games because all of my students like playing games. I need to think and read a lot how to make mathematics being interesting games which challenges them. Then when they are succeeding finishing the games, they will feel more confidence in solve mathematics games that suppose to confidence in solve in mathematics problem.

That’s all my reflection about this material
