3. WHY REFLECT?
Reflection is a vital piece to becoming a better teacher, but how should you go
about it? Here are some questions to get you started.
What are you doing ,Why are you doing it, How effective is it, How are the
students responding, How can you do it better?
The goal of reflection is to increase your professional development and to make
you think how can I do this differently next time to make the lesson even better.
The more you reflect, the better your craft becomes, experience is a key
component to becoming an even better instructor.

students, then there is a post-teaching conference.

• TC teaches independently to learn own ‘style’
• CTs develop a focus on feedback on BOTH teaching skills and the ability of the TC
to reflect
