3. Have you ever felt lost and saw a teacher? What change did you have?
Yes, there was a time when I felt really confused about a subject in school. This was way back
when i was still a 1 st year high school student. I didn't understand it at all and I didn't know what to do.
So, I talked to my teacher about it. My teacher was really nice and listened to me. They asked me
questions to understand what I was struggling with. Then, they explained things to me in a way that was
easier to understand. They used examples and helped me step by step until I got it. My teacher also gave
me extra things to practice and encouraged me to keep trying. They said it was okay to make mistakes,
as long as I learned from them. Because of their help, I started to feel better about the subject. I wasn't
confused anymore and I felt more confident. My grades got better too, and I even started to like the
subject more because I understood it better. Talking to my teacher and getting their help made a big
difference for me. It showed me that it's okay to ask for help when you need it, and having a teacher
who supports you is really important.
5. Do you think a Special Education Teacher has different roles and responsibilities when
compared to the general education teacher?
Yes, I think Special Education teachers have different jobs than general education teachers.
Special Education teachers help students who need extra help with learning. They often teach smaller
groups of students or even one student at a time to give them the support they need. Special Education
teachers also work with other experts, like speech therapists or counselors, to help students. They make
plans called Individualized Education Programs (IEPs) to make sure each student gets what they need.
In a Special Education classroom, teachers focus on making sure all students feel welcome and
supported. They teach not only school stuff but also help students with their feelingsKeep

2. What are the three factors in order to determine the effectiveness of teachers in general?
In order to determine the effectiveness of teachers consider these three following factors:
Student Achievement: This means how well students are learning. It's not just about grades,
but also how much they understand and remember. Tests, assignments, and even how students
participate in class can show this.
Classroom Environment: This is about how the classroom feels. A good teacher makes a safe
and welcoming place where students feel comfortable asking questions and sharing ideas. The
teacher manages the class well, keeps things organized, and makes sure everyone can focus on
learning.
Teacher Practices: These are the methods and strategies a teacher uses to teach. It includes
things like explaining lessons clearly, engaging students in activities, and providing helpful
feedback. Good teachers also keep learning themselves, trying new things to improve their
teaching.
3. How is the role of the Special Education teacher similar to the general education? How is it
different?
Special education teachers and regular teachers both help students learn, but they have some
things in common and some differences. They both want students to do well and make plans for what
they teach. They care about their students and want them to succeed. But special education teachers
work with students who need extra help, like those who have trouble learning or physical challenges.
Regular teachers teach all kinds of students, even those who don't need extra help. Special education
teachers use special ways to teach, and they make plans for each student who needs help. They also
work with other experts like speech therapists. Regular teachers mostly work with other teachers. So,
even though both types of teachers want the same thing, they do it in different ways because they work
with different kinds of students.

5. List down the specific qualities of a Special Education teacher. Define each quality using a
reference.

even when faced with challenging situations or
slow progress. Patience allows teachers to
support students effectively without becoming
frustrated. (Reference: Merriam-Webster)

meet the diverse needs of students with
disabilities. Flexibility helps teachers respond

innovative ways to teach and engage students,
especially those with diverse learning needs.
Creativity enables teachers to design unique
learning experiences that cater to individual

Do you think the choice of the method used by the resource teacher is also effective in handling special
education class? Why or Why not?
Yes, the choice of teaching method used by the resource teacher is critical in handling a special
education class effectively. Picking the right way to teach in a special education class is really
important. Different kids learn in different ways, so teachers need to use different ways of teaching to
help each student. This is called "differentiated instruction." It means that the teacher changes how they
teach to fit each student. Fun activities that get students interested and excited about learning are the
best. Also it’s important to make learning fun and interesting in special education. Using activities
where students can do things and use their senses, like seeing, touching, and hearing, helps keep them
interested. When students are interested, they're more likely to join in and remember what they learn.
Making sure every student can learn is really important. This means the way teachers teach should work
for everyone, even if they have challenges or disabilities. For example, using pictures, things to touch,
or special tools can help students who have trouble seeing or moving.
Furthermore, it’s important to practice what you're learning and get feedback. Some students need
to practice things more to get better at them. Teachers can show how to do things, practice together, and
say good job when students do well. This helps students learn new things and get better at them. As well
as it's important for teachers to help each student in a way that fits them best. This means giving extra
help or changing how things are taught to match each student's needs. For example, some students
might need to work in small groups, get help one-on-one, or learn from other students. These methods
help students learn at their own speed. Teachers also need to check how well students are doing and if
they're improving. This helps teachers know if they need to change anything to help students learn
better. They do this by watching how students do in class, asking them questions, and seeing how they
feel about their own learning. By doing this, teachers can make sure everyone is learning and doing
their best.
In conclusion, the choice of teaching method used by the resource teacher really matters when it
comes to the effectiveness of handling a special education class. If they pick methods that fit each
student, are fun, make learning easier, give extra help when needed, and check how well everyone's
doing, it helps all students do well. This helps the resource teacher to create a positive and supportive
learning environment where all students can succeed.
