A Teacher’s Prayer
Dear God,
As I step into the classroom today, guide me
with wisdom and patience. Help me to see each
student as a unique individual, full of potential
and deserving of my best efforts.
Grant me the ability to inspire and encourage,
to listen and understand. May I create a safe
and nurturing environment where every child
feels valued and respected.
Give me the strength to face challenges with
grace and perseverance, and the humility to
learn and grow alongside my students. Help me
to impart not just knowledge, but also kindness,
empathy, and integrity.
Bless my words and actions so they may uplift
and motivate. Let me be a source of positivity
and hope in the lives of my students.
Thank you for the privilege of teaching and for
the trust placed in me. May I always honor this
responsibility with love and dedication.
Amen.
Philosophy of Education
Purpose of Education
Philosophers debate the ultimate goals of education, which can include the
development of critical thinking, the preparation for a successful career, the
fostering of moral and ethical values, and the promotion of civic
responsibility.
Nature of Learning
This examines how learning occurs and what it means to learn. Theories range
from behaviorism, which focuses on observable behaviors, to constructivism,
which emphasizes the learner’s active role in constructing knowledge.
Teaching Methods
This aspect looks at the most effective ways to teach. It covers approaches
like direct instruction, student-centered learning, and experiential education.
Educational Equality
This addresses issues of access and equity in education, advocating for
inclusive practices that ensure all students have the opportunity to succeed
regardless of their background.
This portfolio represents not only my hard work and dedication but also the
collective efforts of an entire community. Thank you all for being an integral part
of my educational journey.

ACADEMIC BACKGROUND
MOTHER
FATHER
Week four has arrived, and Ma’am Dayani is back. Her return brings a mix of
emotions—I'm happy for her presence yet nervous about being in her company. To
ease my nerves, I keep myself occupied. I prepare numerous activities for my
students, including short stories for reading practice, which also serve as a source
for our upcoming spelling bee. The enthusiasm for the spelling bee among all the
sections is palpable, making it easier for me to manage the class as they are all
eager to participate and improve their spelling and vocabulary skills.
Before delving into our main lesson, I kickstart each class with the spelling bee.
The anticipation in their eyes for a perfect score is evident, motivating me to
make the activity engaging. Additionally, I craft supplementary activities related
to our lesson to keep every student actively involved and focused. Group work is a
common practice, whether it's pairing students up or forming small groups,
depending on the topic at hand.
Navigating through broad topics presents its own set of challenges. However, I'm
fortunate to find resources at the Tambayan, where materials abound, providing
me with inspiration and ideas to enrich my lessons. Teaching proves to be an
adventure filled with challenges, but it's also incredibly rewarding. Each day
brings new opportunities to learn and grow alongside my students, making the
journey as a teacher both thrilling and fulfilling.
NARRATIVE REPORT
In week five, a breakthrough occurs as I finally manage to memorize the
distinctive characteristics of each student. Initially, understanding both my lesson
plans and my students' behaviors posed a challenge. However, with time, I've
learned to navigate smoothly and effectively.
I've come to realize that no matter how well-prepared my lesson is, managing
student behavior is paramount. At times, I find it necessary to rearrange seating
arrangements, separating disruptive students to minimize distractions.
Occasionally, I even adapt my own demeanor, adopting a more playful approach
to maintain their attention and avoid hurting their feelings. Building rapport with
my students is key—I engage them in heartfelt conversations and offer genuine
praise to foster a positive classroom environment. Recording scores can
sometimes be disheartening, especially when a student performs poorly. Yet,
rather than dwell on disappointment, I use such instances as opportunities for
reflection and improvement. Privately discussing their performance allows me to
understand their challenges better and provide timely support. I remind myself
that setbacks are part of the learning process, and I remain committed to my
ongoing growth as an educator.
Each day presents new lessons and challenges, but I embrace them as vital steps
in my journey. As I continue to learn and evolve, I remind myself that every
experience—both positive and challenging—is a valuable part of my training as a
teacher.
NARRATIVE REPORT
Week six brings a new challenge as Ma’am Dayani tasks me with compiling
questions for the upcoming third quarter exam. With confidence, I organize the
questions into categories—24 easy, 12 average, and 4 difficult. Initially, I rely
solely on statements for each question, neglecting the importance of Higher
Order Thinking Skills (HOTS). Despite feeling ashamed, Ma’am Dayani proves
understanding and supportive, guiding me towards becoming a more effective
student teacher.
Reflecting on past classes, I assess areas for improvement to inform my strategy
for the week ahead. Consulting with my students, I discover their preference for
active learning. Recognizing the needs of this new generation of students, who
thrive on movement, I dedicate time to researching classroom strategies and
educational games to incorporate into our lessons. Implementing these strategies
challenges me but also brings joy, even amidst the demands of managing a large
class of over 40 students. Establishing clear rules becomes essential to maintain
order and focus during our activities. Despite the exhaustion that accompanies
each day, I press on, determined to deliver engaging lessons. The enthusiastic
greetings from students upon entering their classrooms and their anticipation for
daily activities serve as reminders of the impact I have on their learning
experiences.
Though taxing, the process of crafting visual aids and activities becomes a labor
of love. Observing my dedication, other teachers inquire about class
demonstrations, recognizing my commitment to creating dynamic learning
environments. Ma’am Dayani’s praise for my efforts boosts my confidence,
validating my passion for enhancing student engagement through creative
teaching methods.
REFLECTION PAPER
Navigating the diverse behaviours of students presents a continual challenge, yet one that
I embrace wholeheartedly. Across the four sections I teach, I encounter a myriad of needs
and personalities, requiring careful attention and understanding. Despite the struggles, I
find immense joy and fulfilment in each interaction with my students. Witnessing their
curiosity and enthusiasm for learning fills me with profound happiness and purpose
My affinity for teaching is deeply rooted in my fondness for children, perhaps stemming
from my own experiences as a high school student. Each day, I am grateful for the
opportunity to guide and inspire young minds.
Moreover, I've welcomed the chance to expand my skills, from delivering comprehensive
lessons to handling assessments such as exams and grade computation, including
mastering the Table of Specification (TOS). The physical toll of teaching is palpable - the
fatigue, the strain on the voice - yet it only serves to reinforce my commitment.
Having Mrs. Dayani J. Villanueva as my mentor teacher was a great opportunity. She
taught me important things, like using Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS) in making exam
questions and creating a Table of Specification (TOS). She also gave me advice on how to
manage my class effectively.
Through my experiences at Rizal National High School, I've connected with other teachers
who shared their insights. They emphasized the importance of helping students who come
from disadvantaged backgrounds. As someone who has experienced similar struggles, I
feel a deep sense of compassion towards these students. It motivates me to be dedicated
and compassionate in my role as a teacher, and to encourage them to pursue their
dreams.
