How Will I Apply MMSEL Course When I Am Becoming A Teacher?



Dasrizal

            Firstly I would like to thank Miss Mima who has been patiently sharing her knowledge to the students. In an honest, I feel that every courses that is mentored by Miss Mima is sustain in my brain such as PETA, Differentiated Instruction, and for this latest course; MMSEL.
            This semester has been great journey because I’ve found several new interesting things in the context of education. I remember the first sessions were talking about motivation such as Maslow’s hierarchy theory. Beside motivation stuffs, I also learn the classroom management and its role to avoid the problem behavior (bullying, aggression, etc.). What I can say for this course is great. MMSEL integrates motivation, management, and solving problems to one course.
            If I am asked what kind of strategies I will do in order to use MMSEL course is by doing what I’ve been learning in teaching. When I’m becoming a teacher, I’ve got to be ready for being ‘tired’ since I have to prepare not only the materials, but also the strategies to overcome classroom’ issues.
            Another thing that I can apply through MMSEL is when I’m creating a classroom agreement. In this situation, I have to consider the students’ perspective such as age, gender, background, etc. One thing that can’t be forgotten is that I have to involve the students to create this because they will obey the agreements.
            There is one more thing that is memorable for me is to involve parents to see students’ improvement. I reflect that parents have right to hear good news, not only the bad news that students make and they are called by school management. Through this, I hope that the development of the students will balance from teachers’ hand and the parents’.
            To sum up everything, I want to say that MMSEL course will be so useful for me when I’m becoming a teacher. The role of teachers is to motivate the students to learn and lead them to good characteristic. I know being a teacher won’t be an easy choice. However, I have been definitely interested this field. Can’t wait the time when I see my students wait for me in the classroom. That’s where the passion takes role.

  1. That nice reflection Das,
    I like your opinion about what we got in MMSEL course will be useful for me when we are becoming a teacher, that right I thing. Because we knows that teacher as motivator too, but we do not how to motive our students. and in this course we learn and practice about that. In additions, I think we can start use what we got in MMSEL class from now. Any theory that we do not try to apply from now fear of the forgetten and useless. so lets, try that as long as the opportunity is still there. Thanks
