Thought I update my blog since I haven't been on for so long plus I never felt that there is anything interesting to blog about now and it is all kind of repetitive. But I thought I take a break from all my work and kind update something I'm really struggling on.
Something my dad is saying to me sounds pretty stupid. Ok... I see his point but still. Let me explain, so he is telling me off how I don't study enough and I should learn more even if my course doesn't teach it doesn't mean I cant go out find things and learn it relating to my study. Yeah he has a point and I guess it makes sense but the problem is nothing that I have learnt in university has been any use. All the readings and all that are just useless. 3 weeks of being out a school, I have used nothing I've learnt other than lesson plans, behavioural management strategies and maybe in some areas of understanding your students. But understanding your students didn't required me to know about the readings and all that crap it related more to me being empathetic to students understanding their situation and accommodating my lesson to my students needs. What you need as a teacher isn't all knowledge it is about understanding your students, being empathetic, listening and supporting your students only then are you able to teach your students effectively. Once you know your students you are able to modify lesson that best suit the students in your class and my dad doesn't understand that. he thing knowledge makes you a better teacher and I just don't think that is what I need.
But hey he will never understand nor listen so why bother right? Anyway enough of my short rant. It is time to continue my work. :)
