DM 6: Teaching Dispositions:
Teaching this unit I was able to learn that the more students were involved in their own
learning and academic growth, the more confidence and motivation they gained. This increase in
confidence reflected back on me as an educator. As I saw my students gaining confidence and
working well with one another, I found that in turn, I was gaining more confidence in myself as
an educator. The demeanor that I have held myself to and the rapport with the students has been
extremely positive. I feel that because of the respect that I show toward the students, I get that
same respect shown to me as well. This, too, gives me an immense amount of confidence in my
skills as a professional educator.
