learned experiences for themselves and are gradually familiar with teaching
methodology of school.
3. The advantages and disadvantages in internship
a. Advantages
- School’s administrators provide good conditions and environment for
internship.
- The headmaster and the supervisor actively and patiently instructed.
- A working environment is full of friendliness, healthiness and warm
co-operation among colleagues.
- Working schedule is convenient. Teaching is started in afternoon every
day from Monday to Saturday; hence it is easy to set up for other works.
- Foreign teachers give the feedbacks that are essential for helping the
teaching assistant to evaluate their working plans and materials and to assess
students learning progress.
- Students love their intern teachers.
- Presentation skills in class, attention attracting skills, good English
speaking skills of the head teacher are good, which are good example for the
intern teacher.
- Students’ parents create opportunities for their children to join extra-

9. Dịch vụ viết thuê đề tài – KB Zalo/Tele 0917.193.864 – luanvantrust.com
Kham thảo miễn phí – Kết bạn Zalo/Tele mình 0917.193.864
- The lack of skills in lesson plan preparation can be considered the
biggest of the difficulties that I have encountered. Most interns lack this skill
because of less opportunities to challenge lesson planning.
- Teaching style is not professional.
- Class management is not very good. Lack of experience in handling
pedagogical situations. There are mistakes which exist in student management
as these students are growing and they need supports from staffs/teachers of
school. For example, students sometimes are playful and stubborn, which made
the intern teacher confused in managing them while the head teacher and other
senior teachers, with teaching experiences, can manage them easily and
quickly.
- Teaching assistant who is still lack of. For example, I sometimes answer
students while the foreign teachers are still teaching, so it seems to be impolite.

b. Works achieved as an intern head teacher
- Meeting the head teacher of intern class and get acquainted with intern
class.
- Figuring out characteristics of class (disciplines, studying, living,
ability of students, manners, etc.) through creating surveys for students, talking
with class’s staffs and teacher).
- Attending classes all week, urge students to review lessons, clean the

breaks.
- Encouraging and assisting some students to improve and resolve
difficulties in learning.
- Usually reminding students who violated disciplines and class’ head

c. Self- assessment of teaching performance
In the first week, I attended sample teaching class of my supervisor.
Through a sample teaching class, I learned experiences for myself to prepare
for my next lessons. Drafted and prepared four lessons plans which were
11. Dịch vụ viết thuê đề tài – KB Zalo/Tele 0917.193.864 – luanvantrust.com
Kham thảo miễn phí – Kết bạn Zalo/Tele mình 0917.193.864
reviewed and additionally instructed by my supervisor; it was prepared for next
the eight lessons.
In the next 3 weeks, I drafted and prepared lessons plans for all lessons
as well as practiced teaching before attending classes. I performed eight lessons
under assignments of administration board and supervisor. I was assessed by
the supervisor as well as received suggestions to correct mistakes after each
lesson.
I also attended other lessons of other intern teachers with the same
specialization to learn experiences from them.
In addition, as a teaching assistant of English, I also have to help the
foreign teachers keep class quite while explaining the lesson. I helped the
teacher translate some difficult words into Vietnamese and assisted students in
their learning.
Being supported and instructed by supervisors through sample teaching
classes and attending other intern teaching classes, I learnt lots of experiences,
especially information delivering skills, time adjustment and management, and
activities organizing in classes.
2. Shortcomings
My knowledge was not delivered briefly, concisely and easily to
understand. Time allocation for each lesson was not appropriate when
sometimes I have lots of idle time whereas sometimes I was lack of time to
teach lessons.
The majority of intern teachers cannot manage all their class or they
stood at one place during teaching.
Lessons were concentrated primarily on theories instead of making a
connection with reality.
Studying in schools was totally different with teaching progress;
therefore, I had some limitations.

IV. General conclusion about internship
1. General assessment of the internship
I would like to assess my internship progress in the most objective way
as follows.
During the internship, I realized that the school where I practiced was a
very good environment, the facilities and conditions to ensure the teaching, the
team of teachers who are enthusiastic about the profession, professional
working style and devoted. I was assisted by senior teachers and supervisors to
experience in real pedagogy environment. I joined teaching activities at school
and participated in other school’s activities, extra- curriculum activities, etc.
During the internship, I always present fully and punctually according to
the regulations and have the right behavior of the teacher. Always strictly obey
the rules and regulations of pedagogical practice, obey the direction of the
administrators and instructors. Always respect, keep a polite, respectful attitude
towards teachers and staff in the school, always be courteous to students.
Always follow the instructions of the teacher and unite with friends during
practice to complete the assigned plan well.
After finishing internship at the school, I have collected experiences
through intern teaching classes in addition to recognizing my mistakes and
weaknesses which need to be improved.
2. Explanation, analysis and reasons of achievements and
shortcomings
a. Achievements
The internship has increased my confidence level and activeness in
working. I built up colleague relationship as well as actively researched
teaching resources and developed teaching capacity and learnt experiences
from working environment. The achievements were contributed by instructions
of my supervisors and other senior teachers at the school.
13. Dịch vụ viết thuê đề tài – KB Zalo/Tele 0917.193.864 – luanvantrust.com
Kham thảo miễn phí – Kết bạn Zalo/Tele mình 0917.193.864
I understand the important role of teachers who have high
responsibilities to educate pupils. Being a class head teacher, an instructor, a
knowledge deliverer, the teacher must enhance her teaching capacity and soft
skills. She should be highly aware of working ethics and must have healthy
lifestyles so that pupils can follow and learn from the teacher.
In order to be a teacher with good profession, the key to success is the
relationship between students and teachers. Good results of students are mainly
driven by high awareness of teachers regarding students’ thoughts, wishes and
expectations.
b. Shortcomings
My teaching skills are not as good as other senior teachers as there were
some confusion which occurred in classes. The way of delivering knowledge
has not reflected the general, brief and coherent ideas which should have been
more easily to understand. The reason is that I need regularly practice teaching
profession needs to be usually practiced and enhanced in the future.
The lack of experience as being a class head teacher requires lots of
things to be done. The problems include problems handling and pupil
management.
3. Lessons learned from the internship
Through 4 weeks of training process at Tran Huy Lieu Secondary
School, I got a lot valuable working experience and soft skills. In my opinion,
these precious experiences will help me a lot for my work. The following is
some of experiences which I gained during this internship.
Firstly, the internship course brought to me the opportunity to use my
English knowledge through communicating with foreign teachers and
translating many documents. I recognized that my English is improved so much
through practice.
14. Dịch vụ viết thuê đề tài – KB Zalo/Tele 0917.193.864 – luanvantrust.com
Kham thảo miễn phí – Kết bạn Zalo/Tele mình 0917.193.864
Secondly, with the guides of my supervisor and everybody in the school,
I understanding more about the psychological life of students: innocent,
innocent, easily affected by the surrounding environment.
Moreover, in spite of short time of internship, the internship course at the
school makes me feel more confident than before.
In conclusion, after this internship, I feel grown-up with skills to solve
difficulties.
4. Suggestion
The time of four weeks for my internship course seemed too short for me
to get enough experience in teaching and skills for the job. So I recommend the
time for internship course should be longer.
Through the internship at the school, I realized that the teaching and
learning at the school are good, but according to my perception, there are the
following assessments:
- The facilities at the school have been modernly invested, the classes are
equipped with modern teaching equipment such as using projectors, televisions
with large screens to teach, but the rooms are not equipped with computers. So
almost all teachers have to equip themselves with computers to teach. It is
recommended that the school have computers for each classroom.
- Typically, teaching is a hard job while teachers spend much time on
teaching at school and planing lessons at home with low salaries so numerous
teachers face a lot of difficulties in lives. I suggest that the school
administrators, departments and local authorities pay more attention to improve
teachers’ lives.
- Numerous busy parents do not care their children’s study so the
teaching and learning quality is not ensured. I recommend that there be online
reports to remind the parents about their children’s study daily.
