Reflection:

Write down your expectations from your Cooperating Teacher.

What I expect from my cooperating teacher is friendly and cheerful, I want us both to be
comfortable with each other. But at the same time there is professionalism and seriousness in his
teaching. I also hope he can help me with my pre-service teacher, in the teaching field. He will
teach me the basics of teaching, how to handle students. Those are just my expectations but
whoever will be my cooperating teacher, whether kind or strict, I will accept and follow their
assignments correctly because I know they are one of those who can help me to further my
teaching.

also coordinates with TEI Coordinator regarding the conduct of the internship activities and
guides the pre-service teachers in the tasks of the teachers (making lesson plans, making
instructional materials, teaching strategies). And last the supervisor, coordinates with other
personnel within the TEI on the implementation of the activities and also the DepEd coordinator
(Regional/Divison or school level) on the conduct of the internship activities. Their conduct a
constant conference with pre-service teachers and conduct evaluation conference, with other
implementers, to assess pre-service teacher’s performance.

Reflection:

To assess student’s learning on the lesson, recite the key person and their role to field study
students.

The key person and their role to field study students. The key person are cooperating principal,
cooperating teacher and the supervisor. The role of cooperating principal is conduct conferences
with student teachers, cooperating teachers and university supervisors as needed. Orient the
student teachers with respect to the traditional beliefs and mores of the community served by the
school and the uniqueness of the school-community relationship. Without the vital help of the
cooperating teachers, no teacher preparedness program could claim success. Their role in the
experience of teaching students is indeed a critical one. The value of the daily contact they have
with student teachers cannot be duplicated by any other individual in the program. Cooperating
teachers are experienced professionals, competent with a commitment to their students in their
teaching field and learning in general. Supervisors are also a way to evaluate and understand the
community of the partner schools and to help the student teacher learn to relate there effectively.
They would like to see proof that student teachers do what they can to prepare and deliver
effective methodology for teaching. If student teachers have concerns or disagreements regarding
some aspect of the experience, as soon as these feelings occur, they should be encouraged to
speak with the supervisor.

Final Requirement:

What are your expectations when you meet the key person in your assigned Cooperating school?

When I meet the key person in my assigned school. I expected that they are professionals in their
work or roles because they are superior to me. I hope they are responsible and serious in their
roles, I also hope that they are organized, decent and formal in their actions because they have a
role to be assigned. Of course I also expect them to be strict, it is inevitable to be strict because
they just want the outcome to be good. I also hope I can learn a lot from them that I can use in
my future teaching.

learning process and it’s demonstrating a proficient Teacher

and initiators of alliances and partnerships.

General Academics and Teacher Education Department

Application:

For your future reference as a successful teacher, how do you apply the career stages of
Philippine Professional Standards for Teachers (PPST) in your teaching profession?

As a future educator I should achieved the qualifications recognized for entry into the teaching
profession, a strong understanding of the subject areas, essential knowledge, skills, and values. I
should independently demonstrate the application of skills necessary to the teaching and learning
process. I should do the planning, implementing, and managing learning programs. I will work
collaboratively with colleagues to improve our learning and practice.

Reflection:
Write down your expectations for yourself and from your Cooperating teacher after you attended
your experiential learning course.
I expected to conform to the same professional standards as the regular staff members of the
cooperating school. I should arrive at the school at the same time as the teachers and spend the
full school day and any additional planning time as the cooperating teacher requests. If
unforeseen circumstances should cause me to be late, I must contact the school clerk, the
cooperating teacher, the university supervisor. I expected to work with the cooperating teacher
each day to assure the immediate assistance in planning, teaching and evaluating. And as a
student teacher, 100 percent attendance is expected to fulfill requirements for state licensure.
Any absences can result in the lowering of the final student teaching grade or termination of the
experience.

General Academics and Teacher Education Department
As a beginning teacher I expected on my subject field study especially during this COVID 19
pandemic is not easy. Field study means studying outside, observing the school environment,
observing the way of teaching of a cooperating teacher. But now that there is a pandemic, for me
it is difficult, you do not experience what you should be observing in the classroom. You do not
know what you are going to write in the reflection, what you have experienced in observing, you
will not meet your mentor. But we still need to adjust for our own development.
