Mabuhay My Lovely Readers!!

Hello!! Welcome back to Cyntia’s amazing blog

This is my last story of my blog. I’m sad that my journey in USJ-R is done huhu

I’ve done one month in University Of San Jose – Recoletos for my practicum. This is my best experience in my life. I’m so grateful for getting a chance to be student teacher exchange in abroad.  How lucky I am, I can join this precious program. Now it’s time for me to tell you readers about what I got during my practicum

1.1 Purposes of Practicum

The SEA – Teacher project or “Pre-service student teacher exchange in Southeast Asia”  aims to provide opportunity for pre-service student teacher from Universities in Southeast Asia to have teaching experience in school in other countries in Southeast Asia.

And for me, Purposes of my practicum is to practice my skill in teaching especially English subject so I can be professional teacher in the future and improve my ability in English, also to get more knowledge about life, education, culture and language in other countries.

1.2 Procedure of Practicum

The SEA – Teacher project has one month period. The first week, we have Orientation week ( The time to know more about how’s the school, what’s the facilities, and etc), The second week is Observation ( first time, Get into the class and see how’s the strategy, method of the teacher to handle the class), The third week is Teaching assistan ( Help the teacher to handle the class, checking and recorded students’ scores, etc) , The forth or the last week is the time to do teaching demonstrations or teaching practice.

My Coorperative teacher, Ma’am Davide told me to make Lesson plan before start to teach. She also gave me time to chose the material. I chose about Narrative Paragraph . She checked my lesson plan one day before my teaching practice day. I did it well. She said that I had a nice plan and congrats me, she’s excited to see me in the classroom haha yes.

1.3 Outcomes of practicum

 I joined this SEA – Teacher , many outcomes that I get :

1.  I get more knowledge about their education and culture
2. My ability in English is more improve
3.  I become more confident in speaking in front of people
4. I know how to manage the class ( The strategy, method, etc)
5. I get to know how the curriculum, Lesson plan and their lessons based on Philippines education

1.4 The challenges of practicum

My challenges of practicum is when I taught them. Yes, it was when I did my teaching practices. I had to master the lesson and gave the best explaination to them. The students are so smart and even their English is higher than me. I can through it very well. I believe in myself and I get the best result from my CT. The students are really supporting me.

1.5 Overall impression

I have all best impression in University of San Jose – Recoletos  Basak Campus, Cebu, Philippines. They are so kind, friendly and really helpful. I feel so comfortable to stay there, the comfortable dormitory, good accommodation are all  provided by USJ-R. The teachers and students are also supporting and helping me during one month period. They always smile and say “Hi miss” when I met them outside of the class. I’m so happy to hear it. All of them in USJ-R are so respect to us. I feel like part of their family in here, I really enjoy .

1.6 Suggestions for future improvement

My suggestion for future improvement to SEAMEO SEA – Teacher project is I hope that it’s better if all of countries (beside Indonesia, Philippines, Thailand) in SouthEast Asia can join this project too, so they can get chance to have experience like us. Learn more languages, education and cultures are really amazing. SEAMEO please keep doing this project❤

I can get new experiences in Education, especially in teaching in abroad. This is really challenging for me, I’m glad I can through it very well. I’m so grateful I can be chose as delegates of SEA – Teacher Batch 8 from Indonesia. Thankyou so much ♥ Terima Kasih ♥ Daghang Salamat♥
