Becoming a teacher, standing in front of the class, transferring a subject, it was what I have done with my team in the last session of PETA class. From that activity, I realize that it’s really complicated enough for becoming a teacher. I really appreciate all efforts that my elementary and high school teachers have done to provide learning process for me. Even I sometimes say that most of activities in the class were not really interesting, it may be because of the teaching method but actually becoming a teacher is not as easy as I thought. The effective teaching and learning starts from the lesson plan that teacher have made previously. But the effective and interesting lesson plan doesn’t mean anything if the teacher can not apply it well in class.  

Although my teachers doesn’t apply model of instruction in the teaching process and they just apply teacher-centered learning, but I really appreciate them. They are very patient and sincere in doing their job. They taught me everything that is very useful for my life. I ever have a teacher that really kind to me whereas I don’t really like her subject. But because of her, I tend to be more interested to learn more about her subject. I realize that for becoming a teacher, it’s not only content knowledge acquisition and teaching methods that we have to master of, but also the teaching skills. How to make a closely relationship with our students, how to enhance students’ interest, how to play a role in front of class, because teacher is an actor who has to be professional like Mrs. Lydia said, and I am still learning for mastering it. I hope in teaching assistance later, I could teach very well. :D
