Practicing Teaching in the Class

On February 5th, 2018 was the first day I started teaching in the class 12b. And just at 1:00 p.m, I came to school, and entered the Faculty Office and then I noticed that Ma'am Claire's was at the Faculty Office. Then Ma'am Claire asked me. Fen's whether you will practice teaching at 1 pm in the class 12B, and I replied, "yes ma'am, right Ma'am" ​​and how you feel now, "a little scared Ma'am, I replied.

And then Sir Sonny invited me to go to class, and when I got to class. All students get ready. And my feelings are getting more and more nervous. And it turns out, not surprisingly Ma'am Bless also already in the classroom. And finally . I taught with nervous.

Sir Sonny always gives me the spirit, so I do not feel afraid when teaching in the class. And finally, I started learning. I explained the lesson, and I just stood in one place. Because I still feel nervous at the attention by 3 smart people from the campus TAU Philippines.

And I explained the material included video. Ma'am Claire, Ma'am Bless and Mentor (sir Sonny) watched me teach in class. Until the time the material is finished explained. And I am over 45 minutes. And I was asked to give a question to the students, and none of the students asked about the marketing mix. And then I show the task that will be done by the students for the next meeting. And this task is still done in groups by students. And the group is still the same as the group meet yesterday.

After that, the class was again conditioned by Sir Sonny. And I sat behind listening to the criticism and suggestions that built me ​​in the future. Ma'am Bless gave me a suggestion that I was not explaining video with an example. And I also do not go around in class to deliver material. Because I just stand on one side only.

I am very grateful to be given suggestions and responses by Ma'am Bless and Ma'am Claire, hopefully in the future I can better master the class, and more able to master the material. After the lesson ended, I and Sir Sonny closed the lesson, and we returned to the Faculty Office.

And in the faculty office I and Miss.Evi communicate for a moment. And at 3:00 p.m, Sir Sonny has another class with Miss.Evi. And then I go back to the hostel.

                   Material and Other Learning Sources

This school use the materials accordance with core curiculum of Basic Education, and  Senior High School is under the College of Business and Management of TAU. Every subject has one until two books. Book for teacher as teacher’s guide. I think it’s looks like in my country. But but in my country many reference books are used. and books for students can also be equated with books used by teachers, so that the material in the taught more connect. But, My Mentor said that he usually add other materials from internet. same as my country, we are also looking for additional reference from the internet.

         Teaching in class

In introduction step, teacher explain and discuss about the previous lesson. Ask students about previous lesson, to check student understanding. Quick recap of past topics before start main activities.

In main activities, teacher explain the material. Teacher give examples on the board and demonstrate how to solve the question. If students not understand about the material, the teacher will give some tips and tricks. Sometime the teacher use expository method and cooperative method. Teacher divide the student become a small group and woorking together in cooperative groups.

At the introduction stage, the teacher explains and discusses the previous lesson. In the main activities, the teacher explains the material. Sometimes teachers also give assignments to students, in the form of groups. which students will be asked to re-summarize and re-explain the material that has been learned in the previous day, so that students can understand and remember the previous material

In clossing, teacher give some question and students answer the question to check whether students understood about the material. Teacher guides students to make conclusion and tell about material for next meeting.

         Measurement and Evaluation

To increase students participation, the teacher use three method to check measurement and evaluation as follow classwork, assessment and homework. Every meeting that method always used by the teacher.
