Secondary Students Performance in National Achievement Test

SAN PABLO COLLEGES GRADUATE SCHOOL SAN PABLO CITY Learning is a continuous operation like in much other discipline teaching requires also a tremendous task of upgrading the knowledge of a teacher. A teacher is the genius authoritative figure in the classroom no one can tell where his/her influence stops. A teacher can create a information atmosphere that is fun and conducive and at the same time create an atmosphere of tension and discrimination. On the note of Naturalism by Rousseau he tonic that man is basically good and that his environment makes him bad, with these aspect I firmly anchored my teaching life.I am a natural born naturalist and idealist who firmly believed that also the environment has a deep anchor on the promotion and progress of an individual. As a teacher, I ever so see to it that when I am teaching my line of discipline which is History I always give my students a pretest before introducing the topic so that I can assess the launching level they waste. T eaching History is not easy because nowadays students cant appreciate the value of ones cultural identity thus, it is always have been a challenge for history teachers like me to sustain students interests in studying it.In this regard, even though the concluded seminar is basically The artistry of Science Teaching I really learned a lot from it specially the resourcefulness on the part of the teacher as well as the connection of Science in many other disciplines. Consequently, nowadays we are living in the context of high technological advances and presently students demand for study is high. Technology has been part and parcel of good education and that is presently the challenge teachers are facing the incorporation of technology into teaching specially that I am public school teacher.Resources are scarce, quality materials are too little, rooms are not conducive for eruditeness, student teacher ratio is too hulking and many other. The linkages and resourcefulness of a teache r can be best harnessed nowadays specially if that teacher really wants to bring about exacting changes on the part of his students. Dedication, commitment and passion for teaching should be always harnessed on the heart of teacher because I firmly believe that when these third core values are shared and trengthened within the humanity of a teacher no problem, no obstacles cant be overcome. The last seminar is and so an eye opener for every educators not only those of teaching sciences but all of us who were called to serve. The insights given by the speaker really made me complete that teaching is an art and also teaching requires prior knowledge strengthening the connection between you and your community, finding resources that best translate your learning objectives into tangible learning outcomes, and most importantly uplift the lives of students under your tutelage.As for my recommendation I am positively looking forward for another series of seminars that the graduate schoo l pull up stakes offer. Because I firmly believed that teachers should always upgrade their learning background for their students as the famous adage connotes You cant give what you dont have Prepared and respectfully submitted by Rowell P.
