INTRODUCTION

Teaching internship is an immersive, hands-on experience that serves as a

critical component of teacher education programs. It is designed to bridge the gap
between academic coursework and actual classroom practice. During a teaching
internship, aspiring educators are placed in real classroom settings, where they
work under the supervision and mentorship of experienced teachers. This period
of in-field training allows interns to apply the theories, strategies, and
methodologies they have learned in their courses to real-world teaching situations.
Through this direct engagement, they gain practical skills and insights that are
essential for their development as competent and confident educators.

One of the primary objectives of a teaching internship is to provide interns

with a comprehensive understanding of the multifaceted nature of teaching. This
includes lesson planning, classroom management, assessment, and differentiation
to meet the diverse needs of students. Interns are involved in various teaching
activities, from preparing instructional materials and leading classroom discussions
to evaluating student performance and providing feedback. They also learn to
navigate the complexities of the educational environment, including dealing with
behavioral issues, communicating with parents, and collaborating with colleagues.
This hands-on experience is invaluable in helping interns develop a well-rounded
perspective on the challenges and rewards of the teaching profession.

Beyond the practical skills acquired, a teaching internship is a period of

significant personal and professional growth. Interns learn to reflect on their
teaching practices, receive constructive feedback, and continuously improve their
instructional techniques. They develop resilience, adaptability, and a deeper
understanding of their own teaching philosophies and styles. The relationships
built with students, mentor teachers, and peers during this time are also crucial,
providing a support network and a sense of community within the profession.
Ultimately, a teaching internship equips future educators with the confidence,
competence, and commitment needed to embark on their teaching careers, ready
to inspire and educate the next generation of learners.

MY PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT GOALS

To align my professional development goals with the Philippine

Professional Standards for Teachers (PPST), I have set several objectives. Firstly, I aim to enhance
my content knowledge and pedagogical skills by engaging in professional readings and attending
subject-specific workshops. For instance, I plan to read “Visible Learning for Teachers: Maximizing
Impact on Learning” by John Hattie and attend seminars focused on innovative teaching methods.
To foster an inclusive learning environment, I will participate in training sessions on differentiated
instruction and apply inclusive strategies in my classroom, guided by “The Differentiated
Classroom: Responding to the Needs of All Learners” by Carol Ann Tomlinson. Additionally, I
intend to improve my assessment techniques by integrating diverse formative and summative
assessment methods, as discussed in “Classroom Assessment for Student Learning” by Jan
Chappuis. Maintaining detailed student performance records will be a priority to track progress
effectively. Finally, to strengthen community linkages and professional engagement, I will actively
participate in community outreach programs, maintain regular communication with parents, and
join a professional organization such as the Philippine Association for Teacher Education (PAFTE).
These steps will ensure continuous personal and professional growth, keeping me aligned with
the PPST.

REFLECTION
BEFORE

Completing my lesson plan for the final demonstration just two days
before its execution was a challenging but rewarding experience. After
numerous revisions, I felt confident in its content and structure. However, the
tight schedule left me with limited time to prepare the instructional materials,
which I could only finish in half a day. Despite the rush, I ensured that the
materials were engaging and aligned with the lesson objectives. This period
was a test of my time management and adaptability skills, highlighting the
importance of careful planning and the ability to remain focused under
pressure.

To ensure the success of my final demo, I conducted a dry run of my

lesson plan. This practice session was crucial as it allowed me to familiarize
myself with the lesson content and identify any potential issues. Through this
rehearsal, I could refine my delivery, adjust the pacing, and make necessary
corrections to enhance the overall effectiveness of the lesson. The dry run
gave me a clearer understanding of how the lesson would unfold in a real
classroom setting, boosting my confidence and preparedness for the final
demonstration.

DURING

An hour before my final demo, I encountered a major technical

difficulty when my laptop charger broke and caused a small fire. This
unexpected incident led to the shutdown of both my laptop and the connected
TV, rendering them unusable. The sudden loss of my primary tools for the
demo was incredibly stressful, and I momentarily worried that all my
preparation would go to waste. However, I quickly realized that the key to
overcoming such challenges lies in resilience and quick thinking.

I am deeply thankful for my Pre-Service Co-Teachers, who

demonstrated incredible support and teamwork during this crisis. They
immediately offered their assistance, helping me to prepare last minute for
my demo. Their willingness to lend a hand in such a critical moment
highlighted the importance of having a supportive professional network. Their
encouragement and practical help were instrumental in ensuring that I could
continue with my demonstration despite the setback.

Despite the technical difficulties and the last-minute preparations, I

was able to execute my demo successfully. The experience underscored the
importance of staying calm and resourceful under pressure. Reflecting on
this, I realize that facing such challenges has strengthened my problem-
solving skills and reinforced my ability to adapt to unexpected situations.
Ultimately, the successful execution of my demo, despite the difficulties, has
boosted my confidence and demonstrated my capability to handle
unforeseen obstacles with poise.
AFTER

After the demonstration, I had an insightful conversation with my

observer, Mr. Bernie Tuguenos, about my performance and the lesson plan.
This debriefing session was an invaluable opportunity to gain constructive
feedback from an experienced educator. Mr. Tuguenos began by
acknowledging the challenges I faced and commending my ability to execute
the demo successfully despite the technical difficulties. His words of
encouragement were a great boost to my confidence and affirmed the effort
I put into preparing for the demonstration.

Mr. Tuguenos praised my lesson plan, highlighting its structure and

content. He noted that the plan was well-thought-out and effectively aligned
with the lesson objectives. This positive feedback was particularly gratifying,
as I had spent a significant amount of time refining the lesson plan through
multiple revisions. Hearing that my hard work paid off was incredibly
rewarding and motivated me to continue striving for excellence in my teaching
practice.

In addition to his praise, Mr. Tuguenos provided some corrections and

suggestions for improvement. He pointed out specific areas where I could
enhance my instructional methods and classroom management techniques.
His advice was both practical and insightful, offering clear strategies that I
could implement in future lessons. This feedback was crucial in helping me
identify aspects of my teaching that needed refinement and gave me a
roadmap for continued professional growth.

Overall, the discussion with Mr. Tuguenos was a pivotal moment in my

teaching journey. It reinforced the importance of seeking and embracing
feedback to improve my practice. The combination of praise and constructive
criticism provided a balanced perspective on my performance, highlighting
my strengths while also pointing out areas for improvement. This experience
has deepened my understanding of effective teaching and has equipped me
with the knowledge and motivation to enhance my skills further.

REFLECTION

Reflecting on my related works and activities, I realize the significant impact they
have had on the teaching-learning process. During the recent earthquake drill, I played
a crucial role in ensuring the safety and well-being of my students. Guiding them through
the proper procedures not only helped them understand the importance of safety
protocols but also fostered a sense of responsibility and preparedness. This experience
underscored the importance of creating a secure learning environment where students
feel safe and supported.

Attending the seminar on “School Emergency on First Aid and Fire Safety
Awareness” was another critical aspect of my professional development. The knowledge
and skills I acquired from this seminar have equipped me to handle emergency
situations more effectively. By incorporating this information into my teaching practices,
I can provide my students with the necessary safety education, ensuring they are better
prepared to handle emergencies both in and out of school.

My involvement in the local demonstration allowed me to showcase effective

teaching strategies and share best practices with my colleagues. This experience not
only improved my instructional skills but also contributed to the overall professional
development of our teaching community. Demonstrations like these are vital for
continuous improvement, as they provide opportunities for teachers to learn from each
other and implement innovative approaches in their classrooms.

Facilitating the flag ceremony, where I was assigned to beat “Hymno ng Lopez”
and “Ako ay Pilipino,” was a fulfilling experience. This activity helped instill a sense of
patriotism and respect for national symbols among the students. It also provided a
platform for students to observe and participate in formal events, enhancing their
understanding of civic duties and cultural heritage.

Teaching and guiding the grade 5 students in their dance for the recognition day
intermission number was another rewarding experience. It allowed me to connect with
the students on a different level, fostering creativity and teamwork. Preparing and
assisting for the recognition day and graduation day further emphasized the importance
of celebrating students’ achievements, motivating them to strive for excellence in their
academic pursuits.

Lastly, my involvement in administrative tasks, such as preparing paperwork for

the feeding program and encoding and sorting the list of names for incoming grade 5
students, highlighted the significance of organization and attention to detail in the
educational process. These tasks, though often behind-the-scenes, are crucial for the
smooth functioning of the school and contribute to creating a supportive learning
environment for the students. Through these various activities, I have gained a deeper
understanding of the multifaceted role of a teacher and the impact of these contributions
on the overall teaching-learning process.
