On Becoming a Teacher
Episode 1 The Teacher as a Person
Name o FS Student Vanessa A. Turla Course Bachelor of Science in Education (Teaching Units) Resource Teacher Muriel Criselda Delmo Cooperating School Sts. Paul and Mark School My Target Deeper understanding a teacher as a person Knowledge o myself as a person who will become a teacher My Reflections 1. Why are some teachers reported to have bumped a learners head on the wall or made a child swallow scratch paper or pencil filings? What attribute do you think is low for this teacher? I think the attribute low for such teacher is emotional stability. Emotional stability is n individuals steadiness of mood, their ability to withstand minor setbacks, failures, difficulties, and other stresses without becoming upset emotionally. Emotionally stable persons tolerate minor stresses and strains of day to day living without becoming emotionally upset, anxious, nervous, tense, or angry. They are able to maintain composure under minor emotional stress. The unstable person, on the other hand, is subject to fairly wide, frequent, and often unpredictable mood shifts that may swing from pole to pole. A teacher low in emotional stability tends to be easily provoked in anger and get controlled by his/her emotions that he/she ends up hurting his/her students
