 2. Reflect on your rights vis-à-vis your obligations
As a future educator I need to better understand the rights and the Responsibilities of
being a teacher. Roles and Responsibilities of a teacher are vital and must be learnt, as a
general rule, to ensure quality of teaching. To embark on this journey, it is essential to
attain enough knowledge about the subject and gather the correct material for teaching. It
is not only sufficient to hold good quality knowledge on the subject, but also have a
presentable appearance. As a teacher, we are responsible for student’s behavior and
classroom management, as well as to understand the capability of the learners.
Knowing the rights and obligation of being a teacher might help me how to
manage my actions in the school and for me to be familiarize to what am I doing in the
near future.
