Environment.
My name is ……………………………………………………………………… at Ngwelezane hospital in a small village
called Umtubatuba I have 3 siblings, I started my primary school at Duma primary at Mandeni from
grade 1 to grade 7. I started my High school at Thulasibone high and I am currently studying at
University of South Africa doing Bachelor of Education . I know that I will become influential in students'
lives, inspiring and motivating them to succeed. My career in education will benefit society as a whole.
The impact I hope to make on every individual in the classroom will be passed on to the following
generation. I
My favourite sports is Volleyball. I love surfing the internet if I have free time, opening my mails, visit my
Facebook account and chat with my friends so I stay connected with them anytime and anywhere. I’m
not used to play computer games like others do. I like going out a lots and also experiencing new things
is my favourite. My favourite colors are red, blue and black. My friend sees me as a kind, sweet, funny
and friendly person. Life to me means friends and family. Who you can trust and who trust you. I am
pretty much on the bright side of life. But like all young people do. I do have my days of sadness or
depression. I have some few friends who looks out for me during those days or when I’m having a bad
days. I have a best friend who like a sister to me to talk to. I make my studies days go by thinking of
either the next hour or what I will do when I get home or on the weekends.
, Teaching statement that describes your teaching beliefs and practices and learning process
My teaching beliefs is about listening, questioning, being responsive and remembering that each
student and class is different. It’s about eliciting responses and developing the oral communication skills
of the quiet students. It’s about pushing students to excel and at the same time it’s about being human,
respecting others and being professional at all times. Good teaching is the ability to develop
relationships with students and engaging them in learning. It is also about caring, nurturing and
developing minds and talents. It's about devoting time, often invisible, to every student. It's also about
the thankless hours of grading, designing or redesigning courses and preparing materials to still further
enhance instruction. I believe a good teacher, first, has a powerful faith in the future. Like the forester
planting an oak seedling knowing he or she will never see the tree in all its glory, I know I may never see
the fruits of my labours as teacher. My calling is to plant and nurture seeds that will grow and shape
tomorrow. The good teacher knows and understands students, how they develop and learn. I know that
students actively construct and transform their own knowledge based on past experiences and prior
learning. I know that students do not all learn in the same way or at the same rate. I believe it is my
responsibility as a teacher to be an effective diagnostician of students’ interests, abilities, and prior
knowledge. I must then plan learning experiences that will both challenge and allow every student to
think and grow. I believe a good teacher must also understand motivation and the effects of peer
interactions on learning. I want all my students to achieve at high levels, so I avoid sorting them and
setting them up to compete with each other. I know most learning happens through social interaction;
therefore, I structure learning so that students productively collaborate and cooperate with each other
the vast majority of class time. The good teacher must know her subjects and how to help students learn
those subjects. I know the good teacher must have a deep appreciation of how knowledge is created in
the discipline, how it is organized and how it is linked to other disciplines. I use my knowledge of the
discipline to expose my students to modes of critical thinking, encouraging them to analyse, apply,
synthesize, and evaluate all they read and hear.
