Introduction
Education 2130 course material taught me many aspects that I will be able to use in the future when I become a teacher. The course taught me various things on what it means to become a teacher. In class I have learned through writing assignments, online discussions, readings, and online quizzes. A field experience was part of my class. The field experience just expanded my learning from what I learned in class. Concepts I learned in class I got to learn first hand while completing my field experience. Education 2130 relates heavily with my field experience. The field experience builds off the material done in class.

The teachers really seem to take the time to get to know the students. Teacher always related the subjects that were being taught relevant to the student’s lives. Student enjoyed the fact that the teacher did this because they never lost their focus. The teachers always put forth her best effort to teach the students. Slavin states that teacher efficacy “ is at the heart of what it means to be an intentional teacher”(p.6). The statement made by Slavin shows the importance of the effort a teacher puts in for their students. The teachers at the education center gave their best effort, which led to the students always giving it their best. I believe students will match the efforts of a teacher. This is exactly what I saw during my field experience. Reading that teacher efficacy is important is was one thing, but when I was witnessing it first hand was great. Seeing how much the teacher efficacy affected the students really impacted on how I want to teach in my future classroom. This experience also expanded from what I learned reading the class textbook. Reading it and then seeing it during my experience taught me a lesson I will never

For this field experience assignment I decided to use a students from Mrs. Carrillo’s 2nd grade class who wishes to go by the name of “Elsa” for this activity. Elsa is a student who is still currently learning English, and whose primary language spoken and written at home is Spanish. Mrs. Carrillo expressed that she is falling a little behind in most subjects because of the language barrier but she is definitely progressing and improving as the school year moves forward. As far as the SOLMO chart, I would like to talk about all the categories and where I would place Elsa on this graphic organizer and why. For comprehension, I would say that Elsa is at a level 3.

After listening to the presentations, I agree the most with the lesson presented in presentation one concerning education and learning. One fact that really touched base on the importance of education and learning is how education was administered to the student by allowing the students to learn and apply the material to their lives. As the presentation stated that this type of learning changed after World War I to a type of learning that focused on scientific evaluation that lost focus on building character as well as applying learnings to their daily lives. I believe this to be very true because schools now focus whether a student can memorize the course material with little regard towards how they absorb and applied the material to their

As a future teacher looking toward a time when I will be responsible for a classroom of my own, the prospects are terrifying. Students arrive in the classroom with various strengths and weaknesses with the expectation that I can and will teach them the given curriculum. Admittedly, some students will be easier to connect with and teach than others. This is not the fault of the students, but rather the fault of the teacher. However, this is not to say that the teacher should be held entirely responsible for the challenges that he/she may face and fail; but the teacher can surely be held responsible for coming to an expected challenge and failing due to lack of preparation or effort.

I believe teaching is not easy and is ever changing. A teacher's education never ends. In order to be good educators we must love to read, write and discover new things so that we can promote love for learning. I also believe not all children learn the same way, but all of them are capable of learning. Because I witnessed first hand the importance and the success of family involvement in education, I believe that a teacher must look for ways to help the students connect with their parents.

This experience has helped me understand the day to day running of a secondary school and has shown me what makes an effective teacher, both through my own practice and observation. I work with all years in the school, assisting within lessons, leading small groups and teaching my own Year Seven class. Through observation I have seen that the most effective teachers ensure that a range of learning techniques have been used, that a familiar routine is utilised and that a relationship built upon mutual respect and trust is built between student and teacher. This is something I would like to build upon in my own practice, and could hopefully develop within

Education is the first step for the development of societies and it has an important role in humans ' social life. There are a lot of skills, techniques and practices that may help the teacher to be effective. From my point of view, allowing an environment in order to enable the students to learn in the classroom by using their different abilities is the main source of being an effective teacher. Teachers must not stop learning and searching for new methods and ways of teaching, but unfortunately teachers are becoming less qualified and powerless when it comes to giving good and effective education. They are unable to convey the messages they are supposed to give.
