SCORESHEET
Hi, I
am
Mylin D.
Isidro, I am
taking up
Bachelor of Secondary Education majoring in TLE (Technology and Livelihood education) and at
Third Year level of this academic year 2019-2020 in Capiz State University.
There a lot of things that I learned in conducting my Field Study and it is really memorable and
worth it because it helps me and teach me a lesson that I can use when I become a Teacher. As a
teacher we need a patience, perseverance, and dedication so that we can achieve our goals to teach
students and allow them to learn in school and also grow in a good manner.
Becoming a teacher is not easy because some teacher takes risks and dangers in way to school.
Some teacher climbs on the mountains in order to bring learning in the school and let the
children/pupils learned.
These things that I learned in conducting my field study would help me to develop and achieve
my goals that will guide me to become a successful teacher someday.
I learned how spend my time properly because in my field study 3 travels 10 minutes in order to
reach my cooperating school and conduct my field study properly. I learned how to spend my money
properly, each time I went to my cooperating school I spend money so that we need to budget our
money in order
Is very imaginative √

negative things to happen especially to your students. You should be a role model that
they can admire and idolized through their learning until they become successful and
a good citizen. And, if you are really a teacher even if you are not wearing your
