MEETING 1:
I look forward to LTS 2 especially teaching in the children when they showed us the
testaments from previous LTS 2 students. I think that as a future educator, taking LTS 2 will give
me an opportunity to develop my teaching style and most importantly to change the life of a
child through teaching him or her how to read and write. I know that my efforts would not only
affect the child but also his or her family, and the people he or she will meet in the future. This
wont be easy, because nothing that weighs this much is easy. But I am sure this would be worth
it.
MEETING 5:
After not seeing Renz for two weeks, we were far behind from our lesson compared to the
others. And so, before we began I told him of how I thought we should schedule our lessons for
today, that is: finish LP 1, snack break, finish LP2, snack break, start LP 3. Luckily we were able
to finish these tasks, with a lot of spare time as well. I didnt push through with finishing LP 3 as
I observed that he was getting tired and I didnt want to info-overload him.
Weirdly, it felt good when I asked him if he remembered my name and that he was able to
answer with Ate Joyce. For the past few meetings I thought that he didnt know my name as he
doesnt call me Ate Joyce. My fellow classmates, Maris and Alyssa, also told me that during
my absence Renz didnt talk nor participate much. That made me realize how much trust he had
for me and how much he had developed to opening to me compared to our first meeting. Lastly,
for this meeting, I have observed how much he has developed on his reading and as a teacher I
feel that it was my duty to push him to further his development.
MEETING 6:
I admit that I felt disappointed when we went to San Vicente and we werent able to hold the
session with our students. There were a lot more lesson plans to get through and had already
spent a huge part of the semester. We only had a few sessions left and it would be disappointing
if we wont be able to achieve our main goal, which is to help them excel in reading. I, myself,
wanted that by the end of this semester Renz would be able to read a childrens story book. I
hope we can still catch up and make up for lost time.
