The author reflects on their experience creating and implementing their first lesson plan for a teaching demonstration. They found the process of developing the plan to be highly stressful as it required skills like predicting student responses, managing time, and controlling their temper that they had never done before. Through teaching the lesson, the author realized it was more than just imparting knowledge - they needed to educate students and make learning engaging. After completing the demo, the author's perspective on teaching changed completely. They recognized the importance of changing their attitudes and values to become an educator rather than just transmitting information.

1. (Before the Grand Demo)
My Lesson plan is my ULTIMATE Stressor. Hate it. 
I never thought that it was really hard to make a
lesson plan. I have to be creative, I have to be like a fortune
teller, predict and sense what might happened during my
demo day. I have to make sure that my objectives are not far –
too far- from the Learning competencies. I have to be realistic.
I have to managed time. I have to managed the classroom. I
have to control my temper. I have to listen with them. I have to
be open minded. I HAVE TO DO THINGS I NEVER DID
BEFORE.  I never realized things like this.
I never imagined that this would be the kind of life I would have when I teach. I
thought I just have to make the day productive day. But being productive is far far
far from being a fruitful day. I never realized that I need to touch lives of my
students , all I know is that I need to fill theirmind and let them have the
knowledge they deserve. IT WAS MORE THAN. REALLY MORE THAN THAT.

2. My Lesson Plan is my New BEST FRIEND 
They always say that when you are in
front, start teaching it would be okay and everything
would be good as long as you follow your lesson plan
-- “follow your lesson plan and you will never go
wrong.” My lesson plan never failed me.  They
never leave me alone. My lesson plan is my
companion There might be some instances that
situations and questions would not suits in your
lesson plan and you’ll get surprised because of being
unprepared with those circumstances but then as a
future teacher – expect the unexpected. they
what to learn more.
(Like my classmates, it wasn’t see for me to catch attention and maintain my
temper in terms of discussing. I’m a very jealous person and I do want the listener
do nothing except listened to what I say. However, when I start to talk and teach
those students I realized, I shouldn’t expect for more; that they will listened, I catch
their attention. what I realize is, I have to do something to make the day fruitful. To
make the day more engaging. To make them not just to learn but to EDUCATE
them. They’re to timid to asked but I know they what to learn more.

3. (After the Grand Demo)
My lesson Plan is part of my daily
routine, my Day and my Life.   
My perspective change. Myself change. I
never see my self with these BIG CHANGES. Is this
real? The effect given by the lesson plan and this
experience altered my perspective towards being a
teacher. I admit, I never see myself as a teacher.
These experiences was a wake up call for me and an alarm that I need to change m
behavior, attitudes and VALUES that I’m holding. Teaching is more than what I
think. It is actually beyond what I can imagine. I don’t want to ruins one’s life, I
don’t want to be a burden to them. I AM A TEACHER. I SHOULD BE EDUCATING
them not SUFFOCATING them . Learning is not killing and giving pressure to your
students. As a teacher you should educate them to love knowledge and see things
beyond everything.
NEVER. But when I feel those students whose willing to learn, I asked and
talked to myself – will I continue teaching them though my heart is not in
teaching – will I let them suffer because of the decision I made?
