( School Description )
On January 1, 1990, New Ormoc City National High School was established. The Leader
School of Excellence, New Ormoc City National High School is located at Barangay Don Felipe
Larrazabal, Ormoc City, Leyte, Philippines, 1 kilometer from the city center.
It provides three curricula: Science and Technology Classes, Basic Education Curriculum
(BEC), and Special Education (SPEd) for the Hearing Impaired, as well as four (four) programs:
Open High School, Computer Aided Instruction, Applied Academic for Excellence (APEX), and
buildings, including offices, classrooms, a comfort room, the school stage, laboratories, a parking
lot, and other service areas such as a health clinic, a guidance office, and canteens. It also has a
one-of-a-kind Olympic-size swimming pool. It has different classrooms for each class level, each
with a standard size and adequate accommodations for the students. Each classroom has a
blackboard, chairs, a teachers table, and some teachers have their own flat-screen television.
New Ormoc City National High School now has 103 teachers, six non-teaching personnel
in the regular plantilla, eleven Job Order teachers paid by the local government, and eight other
employees paid by the PTA. It has 4,894 students for the 2007-2008 school year.
( A Reflection )
I knew that when I arrived at New Ormoc City National High School, I would experience
a variety of emotions and feelings. Because the school grounds are large and spread out, so are
my emotions and feelings. The first feeling I have is excitement because I will begin teaching the
students, and I also feel excitement because I am getting closer to graduation. It was
overwhelming to return to this environment because it is my alma mater; seeing new faces and
experiencing new things is exciting because this is the first step toward facing some challenges.
teacher?" What if I'm not supposed to be here? What if my cooperating teacher dislikes me?
What if I don't make it through this internship? With all of these questions, I became intimidated
and nervous about what would happen next. I was worried about everything that could happen to
me, but because I am a strong woman, I break all the unpleasant emotions and forget about it
because this experience is for me and I am the only one who can face and endure it.
For me, teaching is a very noble profession that shapes a person's character, caliber, and
future. The greatest honor would be if people remembered me as a good teacher. Teachers have
the ability to push students beyond their limits. The school is not only a place where students can
cultivate their own gardens of knowledge, but it is also a place where they can dream and work
If I think of myself as a teacher. Teaching at New Ormoc City National High School is a
fantastic opportunity, but I do not believe I am capable of handling the students at New Ormoc
City National High School for various reasons, including the school's size. I must be adaptable
and accept changes in my environment in order to not only teach them but also make a
difference.
LESSON PLANNING
My Guide in Teaching
(Reflection)
One of the most important things that every teacher should strive for is the ability to
create an effective lesson plan. Making a lesson plan is a teacher's daily guide for what students
should learn, how it will be taught, and how learning will be assessed.
When I first started teaching, I was concerned about lesson planning because it needed to
be encoded and printed, and I didn't have a laptop or a printer; all I had was a cellphone. It made
me realize that teaching is a difficult profession. It is a type of job that requires a lot of patience,
especially when creating lesson plans. I spent a day writing my first lesson plan because I am not
trained to do so and I am still coping some strategies and knowledge on what activities I should
provide to my students so that it will be easy and fun in order to set the mind of my students that
this subject is fun and not boring. I needed to finish it as soon as possible so that I could
demonstrate and teach the following day. Aside from that, my lesson plan should be related to
the material that I am going to teach. I had to go back and forth on just one lesson plan, and I
As a practice teacher, I had to consider a variety of factors, including not only the lesson
plan but also the instructional materials. Getting used to the new time was exhausting. Despite
my difficulties in creating a lesson plan, I regard it as my guide to lessen the burden of teaching a
topic to a class. It helps me to clear my mind because it will guide me through my discussion.
With the lesson planning and implementation, I've changed the way I teach the students
( Reflection )
Because the subject is filled with numbers and problems, students often find it difficult and
boring. That is why it is a challenge for teachers to create meaningful learning experiences for
their students.
difficult to impart knowledge because not all of my students were interested in learning the
topics in math. My cooperating teacher advised me to make my discussion clear and organized
so that the students can easily grasp the lesson and respond to the activities. That is why I
simplify the topic so that students can understand it and solve the problem easily.
and the Angle-Side-Angle Congruence Postulate. I make certain that they are never bored while
listening to my discussion because I explained it to them step by step in an easy way, and I also
call out some names for them to answer my question and find the congruent angles and sides of
the two congruent triangles. I am very grateful because I see and hear that their answers are all
correct, which means they understood my discussion. I have a lot of lesson plans, but I chose this
one because I could see that my students were learning in a unique and enjoyable way. The
smiles, laughter, and quiz results they gave me after the discussion made me feel like I had
broken down the big barrier that existed between math lessons and my students.I
I learned that we can gain knowledge from our students as well as learn from them. Not
only will our students have fun during our discussion, but so will we.

A teacher can also act as a student's second parent, guiding them in developing their
strengths and weaknesses. To assess students' learning, the teacher must conduct an assessment
that measures the students' ability and capabilities and serves as the foundation for the students'
learning progress. The work of the students is directly proportional to the teacher's teaching
style.

students because I was a signed in grade 8 BEC. To meet their level of competency, I devised a
new teaching style and approach. I'm having trouble getting them to understand the lesson if I
can't make it easier and easier because of students in today's generation are so slow. When I give
them a test, only half of the class passes, and as a teacher, I don't want to see such responses.
After three weeks, I was able to see for myself the scores that I desired, wherein they passed the
Regardless, I learned to be patient and understanding with them. Every time I give them a
quiz, I am grateful that they give it their all. And, as a teacher, it's gratifying to see that they now
value math learning. A relationship in which both parties contribute. Reading all of the
comments about my teaching style and others, I am grateful to know that my effort in teaching
them in an easy way has paid off because they have learned from me and they can gradually love
math because math is no longer boring to them. I'm moved by the fact that they regard me as
their second teacher. I can't express how happy I am and how grateful I am for making me feel
this way. I will cherish all of the memories we made inside the classroom for the rest of my life.
Teaching is about imparting knowledge at the students' level, not your level. I believe
that the work and feedback of your students reflect the type of teacher you are. Accepting

performance. It includes all aspects of a person, particularly student teachers, such as his or her
ability and capacity to meet teaching objectives. It will also identify the student teacher's
strengths and weaknesses, which will aid in the improvement of his or her teaching style.
The evaluation form was a valuable tool in my field for my practice because it provided a
foundation for determining which areas of teaching I needed to improve because it provided
positive and negative comments about my questioning skills, classroom management, subject
matter knowledge, personality, modulated voice, teaching methods, and lesson planning.

weaknesses is my low voice. That was the time when I was adjusting because it was the first day
I started teaching, but in the days and weeks that followed, I overcame my weaknesses. My
teaching strength is also highlighted in the evaluation form written by my cooperating teacher.
Using this tool, I could say that in order to handle the class well, I need to work on my
weaknesses while also working on my strengths. I learned that we must accept our flaws and
learn from them in order to improve. On the other hand, we must not leave our strengths alone;

Journal 1
My first week as a practice teacher. I arrive on time at our designated school. We pre-
service teachers are required to attend the orientation on our first day as a practice teacher
because the orientation is important because we will learn about the MOA and the format of the
DepED lesson plan that we will use as our daily lesson plan.
Following the orientation, we are assigned to a cooperating teacher. After being assigned,
we proceed to our respective cooperating teacher. And I've assigned Ma'am Villafee Tude as the
grade eight diversity adviser. On my first day in the field, I asked Ma'am Tude what I should do
as an intern teacher. Ma'am Tude allowed me to observe in her class this week only because it is
stated in the MOA, and I will begin my teaching practice the following week.

I was greeted with a warm "Good morning, Ma'am" as I walked into the classroom for
my first day of observations. In fact, when I followed my cooperating teacher to her next class, I
was greeted the same way each time I entered the new classroom. My cooperating teacher was
always eager to help me, be the best future educator I could be, even if some of her students were
not listening to her discussion. I gained helpful information by spending time in various
classrooms and observing various types of students' attitudes, which I will take with me into my
I finally understand why flexibility is so important, owing to the fact that every class I've
observed was distinct from the others. Some students in the class were hiding because they
understood the material better, while others appeared out of nowhere, were playing while talking,
or were simply uninterested. As I discussed the issues with my cooperating teacher, she shared
with me some important aspects of flexible teaching, such as good lesson planning and effective
classroom management.
Through all of the examples and attitudes of students that I witnessed in various
classrooms, I have learned that it is critical to promote self-esteem and confidence in students
and influence their appreciation and enjoyment of learning and living. It is critical to motivate
students to do great things that will lead to their success. Most importantly, I recognize the
Journal 2
I'm in my second week as a practice teacher at New Ormoc City National High School. I
arrived at school early to prepare for my lesson, which is a math lesson. I organize the materials I
intend to use from a discussion. Every week, I only teach two days and handle five sections per
day because, according to the MOA, we pre-service teachers are required to teach 10 hours per
week, so my cooperating teacher suggested that I teach only Monday and Tuesday and cover the
10 hours by teaching five sections per day, which is five hours times two days, a total of ten
hours.
I'm starting my teaching practice this week. During my first week of teaching, I am very
nervous because of some circumstances that make me worry that my students will not understand
my discussions. But after discussing, I didn't expect to handle them very well, but before I begin
my discussion, I'm establishing some classroom rules so that they will respect me and listen to
me as their practice teacher for the subject mathematics. I am very overwhelmed because I can
see that they are very interested in my discussion, and my eight conservation students make an
In this case, I am in my second week, but also in my first week of teaching practice, as I
began teaching this week. There are also students and other sections who sleep during my class,
but as their practice teacher, I do my best to handle those students by calling their names and
asking them to answer my questions. Most of my students are obstinate, but I manage them well.
So far, this week has been a very interesting week because I am eager to see if my
students will listen to and respect me during the upcoming discussion of my teaching practice.
Reflection
When I entered the classroom for the first time to teach the students. I had absolutely no
idea what to expect. I'm nervous because I have a negative thought in my head that my students
will not listen to what I'm teaching them. I don't have a lot of experience giving presentations in
front of a classroom. But I've kept the aspects that were given to me by my cooperating teacher,
the use of good lesson planning because that is very important to do, and I feel comfortable
thinking that I prepared all of this, so now is the time to share my knowledge and show them
how to make the topic I'll be discussing with the students easier to understand.
This week, I'm preparing to provide students with learning opportunities to meet
curriculum outcomes. I can tell that I delivered my lesson well because some of the students in
the other section seem to be interested in what I'm saying, though there are still some who aren't.
Classroom management is one of the most difficult challenges I will face, especially at
the start of my first week teaching practice. I understand that classroom management skills
typically improve with experience, and I can connect with the students and keep them focused on
the lessons while they are unaware that I am implementing fewer discipline problems. I also
recognize that each teacher is unique, with their own personality, behaviors, and teaching style.
But, after a week of teaching my students, I've realized that most good classroom management
can really help the students in their learning progress because I use some habits to make the
students respect and listen to me, such as establishing rules to handle issues that arise in every

In my third week as a practice teacher, I'm getting a sense of what it's like to be a teacher
and have most things under control. When I am discussing in front of my students, they are
polite and listen to me. I believe this feeling arose from two factors: how I began my day and
attention to me and focusing on my discussion because they have noticed some changes on my
IM's and are curious as to why the given name differs from the name of the illustrations I wrote
in the chart. That means they are paying attention to me and are eager to learn.
Some of my students have told me that I am very good at discussing because they can
quickly catch up on what I've said. Some of my students also tell me that if I am the one teaching
them in front, they really understand the topic because I made math easier or something that they

performance they deserve to be graded, with the majority of them receiving perfect scores on the
Reflection
I am so grateful for having this week as my teaching practice because I learned about the
teaching profession and how to become a teacher someday. Now I understand why education is
critical for students' future success. When I see my students giving me oral recitations and paying
close attention to my discussions, I know they are interested in learning the lessons. As their
teacher, I am assisting them by answering all of their questions so that they can understand more
because they can only learn more if they ask questions to the teacher.
There are numerous methods for teaching mathematics. But I create my own strategies by
combining the best aspects of all of them. I should ensure maximum student participation, start
with concrete abstraction, and provide knowledge and understanding levels. This week has made
me feel more at ease because I know that each of my students understands the lesson I teach
them better. Although some students are quiet and not participating, I know they are listening to
I realized that teaching is a difficult profession in which you must assist students in
developing themselves and their future. Dealing with students is difficult because teachers must
understand each of their students. Because each learner has unique behaviors that require time,

Right after my class discussion in my fourth week as a practice teacher, they completed
the activity that I assigned to them in relation to my discussion. And since there is still time after
my class, I take advantage of the opportunity to let my students form their initial opinions about
me during my first week as their practice teacher. I’m ecstatic because I heard the phrase “I want
As I read through all of the comments and messages about my student’s first impressions
of me. I'm surprised because they thought I was strict with them, but they also said that for the
past day they were all wrong because I am kind and approachable, and most importantly, they
say I am a very nice practice teacher because they really know the lesson if I am the one who
teaches them.
There is one section that is crying because most of them are overjoyed that I came to their
class room as their math practice teacher. I cried because I feel very much appreciated, and I am
so happy to feel that because they are so grateful to have me as a practice teacher. They didn't
know how to solve math until I arrived in their section, but now they do because they said I made
I wasn't expecting to cry their first impression as I breathed in front of them. Even if

Learning how to be a better classroom teacher has been difficult, rewarding, and

This week, for my teaching practice, I feel like I'm really giving them the best and easiest
way to understand the lesson. Since all of the topics in third quarter have been completed, my
cooperating teacher has assigned me to conduct a review of previous lessons so that the students
Although some of the students do not recall the topic discussed with my cooperating
teacher, as their practice teacher, I discussed with them what the meaning of some words related

words mean and how they can respond to them. Following that review, I conduct another review

discussed because my cooperating teacher told me that's what the exam would be.
It means a lot to me to know that all of my students remember and understand everything
I teach them. I realize that the effort I put in to my students by allowing them to answer quizzes
as part of the review was rewarded because the exam results were nearly perfect, and I am proud
of myself for making a positive impact on my students that they can benefit from.
