classroom management and the teaching learning process
DESCRIPTION
TRANSCRIPT
Were your students noisy or doing
unnecessary things when you taught? –
that was the question of our PT
moderator to us during our feedbacking.
Immediately, I told myself YES, some
were. I said that I did expect for that
because I know the nature of high school
students for the reason that I was once
too. But I was stunned when he followed
up his sentence by saying “Now you know
how I feel?”. I shrugged my shoulders and
I realized that he’s right and I feel sorry
for myself. Classroom
management
is another
thing that
makes the
teaching job
harder. More
than the
academic preparations that you must
have, the ability to manage your class to
maintain the ideal climate suitable for
learning is very crucial. I have a class that
when I first met them, I appreciated their
noise because it was academic in nature.
However, when the second meeting came
and they were really lousy and all over
the place, I felt irritated and I can’t help
but to tell them that they are not suppose
to act that way. Consequently, they shut
up instantly. But the noise comes over
and over and I have to “sshhhh” them
again. If I can add something in the list of
daily routines of teachers aside from
praying before the class and the like, it
would be the “sshhhh” thing.
Another factor that makes
classroom management challenging is
how can you solicit answers from your
students. If not hesitant, they really don’t
know the answer. I mean that they would
say- “I don’t have an idea Sir”. That is the
most scary answer that I could ever
receive. That is like an indirect response
to conclude
that I am
not effective
but luckily,
I haven’t
received
one yet.
That’s
where the teaching and learning process
comes in.
I remember asking my students “Is
chemistry a boring subject?”. “No sir, it’s
just complicated that we can’t get it at
ease.”-they replied. Suddenly a lightbulb
appeared again on top of my head.
Teaching is indeed the hardest career one
could ever have, as hard as making the
concepts that explain how the universe
works simple. Teachers need to exercise
all their skills, from linguistic to
knowledge and even kinetics to cater to
the needs of the learners. We can never
take away teaching from learning and
learning from teaching because they are

success of one relies on the other. The
teaching and learning process that
follows a sequence that once there is a
missing link, it could never proceed to the
next.
