“ I Can do all things through

Christ who give me strength”
Philippians 4:13. Before I go to the school that we are assigned to do our work immersion I
started to pray to God to give me courage and I pray that the one who will handled me or
my adviser on that immersion will be nice and kind. On this day I assigned on the 1 st floor
building of Grade 2 students section Lansones. Those students are so cute and active.
Because on my first day I am just able to observed the students I must say that beside of
being cute of them they are really noisy will I still can handle them. I am so thankful that
on my first day I assigned to an adviser that is so kind and nice. On that day I make myself
very approachable,friendly and responsible. Also, I already know some information about
my critic adviser and we have some talks about lives that we have.

On that day I already have a given task that will do for the next days in my
immersion. In my eagerness to make it and beimg responsible . While we don’t have class I
am able to do it all and already past it the next day. I am so glad that my critic adviser ios
so happy that I make it so fast by that I gain her trust to handle more works. Thanks be to
God. Figure 2: The Medial

that they can much focus on the things
that need to pass by their teacher and
assist them what to do. And I am so
touch that when there class dismissal is
already they are saying goodbye to me , hugging me and doing ‘pagmamano’ to me that I
find cute and sweet to the Grade 2 students. I am the one that will bring them to the gate
and wait their parents to fetch them. Then , I still go back to the classroom and help Ma ’am

It is already Friday and it’s my day 04 in my immersion. Today is PE day of my

students seeing them so cute in their dress and shirts that they prepared to wear is so cute.
This day I give them an exams to answer. I am assisting them on their exams, whatever
they ask I go to them and explained it well. I am so proud of them because they answer it
without hesitation. After that I promise that they will be having a coloring session after the
exam. After they color the drawing I check it as fast so that they will keep it . On this day, I
am able to attend also an afternoon class which Ma’am Dasiy is my critic adviser in the
grade 1 every Friday. On the afternoon I am just assigned to observed and I help Ma’am
Daisy to check the assignment and activities of my students. Looks like I am very lucky in
having a critic adviser because Ma’am Daisy is so kind and very talkative that click us
together. She able to share her dreams to her students and in her life. I will say that grade 1
students is much clingy because they still like a baby but smart and wise.

It is my first Friday that will observe in the afternoon class. They are all cute and
very active in class. Ma’am Daisyrel Mallari is one of the example of the teacher that has a
big passion in teaching. She is really focus on her students to learn well..

This is my last day in PCCAES and I am sad but it doesn’t affect my day with
Ma’am and students. I started my day with tremendous approach like I never did before.
Again, I assigned to other section of grade 2 I just teach them all of their subject and ask
them to write whatever in the manila paper. They also had an oral reading outside the
corridor with the other section. After that, before the class dismiss I go back to my original
assigned room and we take some picture to treasure and also with my supervisor Mrs.
Editha Sagun.

Observation and Insights

For the whole time I stayed at President Corazon C. Aquino Elementary School as a

student trainee, I observed few things. As a student trainee under Grade 1and 2 department,

I spent most of my time by assisting my supervisor in her things in lessons and teaching

18
 BATASAN HILLS NATIONAL HIGH SCHOOL
Batasan Hills, Quezon City

when she get tired ofcourse I am willing to help, and if some teachers is not around on that

day.

First thing I noticed, every teachers and workers of President Corazon C. Aquino

are warm and friendly. They don’t make us uncomfortable for our whole stay, especially it’s

our first time being a student trainee. You can be friendly with anyone. Personally, I am

able to show my politeness and approachable look while staying here and I got close with

some of the teachers and students, regardless of age gap.

Second, when it’s your passion no one will be get tired, as by observing on my

supervisor I saw how persistent she is in teaching those students. Taking time to teach them

to read one by one. I saw how tired ma’am is but she never say to quit. That is why my

heart was gladly lend a hand to help ma’am since I start my duty.

Third, the way they value their co-teachers , workers ,staff and student trainees..

Every teachers there is treated us equally. I believe no matter what status you have or

position in anything you have. Everyone should be dealt properly and give the best they

can offer wholeheartedly. It was just few of the things I’ve noticed, but there’s a lot of good

points in PCCAES.

At first, I’m really nervous and oblivious of the things around me and what will

happen to me. On the other hand I am so excited for the new experience that I will be

treasure forever. I learned that whatever you may do if it is your passion to do those

tiredness in your eyes is just nothing. Because the passion in everyone’s heart burn brighter

that their fears and tiredness.

Overall Reflection and Self-Appraisal

19
 BATASAN HILLS NATIONAL HIGH SCHOOL
Batasan Hills, Quezon City

For overall reflection, there is one thing I’ve learned while working as student

trainee at President Corazon C. Aquino Elementary School that I will bring when I reach

my real life age. I learned how does a person should act like a professional , At first I am so

scared on what will happen but if the work is calling, you have no choice but to face it. At

first, it’s hard, given the fact that you’re still adjusting at the place and meeting new people,

but before you knew it, you already used and comfortable of everything around you. Face

your fears. It’s something that I will remember in the future whenever I hear Work

Immersion.

I am still a student who has a lot things to learn and to consider, and my time in

President Corazon C. Aquino Elementary School is one of the times where I actually

learned a lot of things. Some of it are lessons from my supervisors, mostly are about my

tasks, and some of it are from my own learnings, on how should I do this or finish that. I

did a lot of things that are unfamiliar with it, and I’m proud of myself that I able to do it

and get used with it. Those things may help me, maybe on unexpected times, or I may

unconsciously do it. As a student who is still unsure of what to do after high school or after

college, my time as student trainee helps me in considering things regarding to that matter.

I enjoyed a lot and learned a lot things in PCCAES, and I hope for the best of

President Corazon C. Aquino Elementary School and for all the lovely teachers, staff and

workers of that school. Godbless!
