My Mentor and I
Second semester of our fourth year as
education students means our on the job training—
Practice Teaching. I was so delighted to undergo that
actual test of how much have I learned in all my
subjects I undertook in CSU including my majors and
edus. Knowing that I will be deployed at Tuguegarao
City Science High School was so exciting but at the
same time nerve-racking. Who would not experience
knee trembles when you’re in front of young
intellectual monsters and of course to have a mentor
with exceptional abilities. Although it could be an
opportunity, it means a challenging quest as well.
Nevertheless I realize that if ever I’ll mess up with
my Field Study, I must keep in mind that what
counts are things that I will learn. After all, mistakes
are not really in effect, they are just but learnings.
Well, so much for an introduction. I forgot I have a
matter to talk about and it’s written above, bold.
THE MENTORING SPIRIT—it’s really not in its
literal sense. It was a spirit in not a ghostly definition.
I felt it and it was really good but it was scary too. It
so happens that I have a background knowledge
about my mentor because she was the same mentor
my senior had. From what I heard, she was strict and
I found that correct. But I think that is how it is
supposed to be. “To be the best” is the end goal
anyway so I’m good with that. She is exceptionally
intelligent. She is full of strategies I might also use.
We talked once in the library and she gave me a
method to use on my first practice teaching. That’s
great!!! Thanks to her.
I don’t have much to say because my first
week apparently became a first day. I had to leave
the next day for extracurricular activities but
nonetheless, I want to share my vision of mentoring
especially on the first meeting.
ENGAGE! Smile should welcome me. I
should be oriented on the daily class routines. If a
class adviser, I should also be informed of what I
must do as an assistant adviser (let’s say). Classroom
management should also be introduced specially I’m
not familiar with the arrangement of the chairs and
how the classroom must look like. There must be
gentleness when communicating and a guilt free way
of suggesting things to do. If I did something wrong,
it must be kept confidential and none must be
related to co-teachers. A mentor must be willing to
attach himself to his mentee. What is meant by spirit
anyway? It’s an “important influence” both on the
mind and the heart.
However, so far, I think everything will be
fine. With a mentor like her, I will not be afraid to
trust. But let’s see what will happen next. Will my
cruise be in a wavy ocean or one that is calm? I don’t
know. This is just but my first week anyway. BON
VOYAGE!
“I MUST KEEP IN MIND THAT WHAT
COUNTS ARE THINGS THAT I WILL
LEARN. AFTER ALL, MISTAKES ARE NOT
REALLY IN EFFECT, THEY ARE JUST BUT
LEARNINGS.”
