| Self-confidence, teaching ability and SKILLS
In addition to knowing about the subject matter, theories of learning and teaching, the students, and the workplace, teachers should aim at improving their ability to put all this knowledge into practice and becoming more skilful at teaching. This can be achieved by having a daring and exploratory attitude towards teaching which involves trying out different methods, techniques and activities again and again, reflecting on their effectiveness, and capitalizing on these experiences in order to make the necessary changes to their teaching habits. Trying out new ideas in the classroom has the additional benefit of making the activity of teaching much more interesting. Having an exploratory attitude towards teaching helps to prevent the feeling of being stuck in a rut, i.e. working on the same teaching points in the same way year after year. Becoming more skilful at a certain activity has a lot to do with being aware of one’s own strengths and weaknesses. Self-confidence, teaching ability and AWARENESS Teachers can develop further by increasing their self-awareness. What kind of teachers are they? How are they perceived by their students and colleagues? What are the strengths they should capitalize on and the weaknesses they should be working on? Self-awareness can be raised in a number of ways: ● Teachers can make audio or video recordings of their lessons and watch, analyze and reflect on the recordings afterwards. ● They can invite a colleague to sit in while they teach and ask them for feedback after the lesson. ● Observing other teachers teach can be very enlightening. It helps teachers to compare different teaching styles, practices, etc. and become more aware of what kind of teachers they are, or they are not. ● The students themselves can provide teachers with very valuable feedback on their performance. Implementing instances for the collection of this kind of feedback regularly can be very valuable. ● Teachers can benefit from whatever evaluation system is implemented at their workplace if they regard it as an awareness-raising opportunity leading to professional development. жүктеу/скачать 0,93 Mb.
