Reflection Professional development
Professional development is a very important issue for everyone who
believes that professional development is important throughout the life of being
a teacher. Autonomy, commitment and innovation, in my opinion, are the key of
professional development, since these characteristics enable us to keep fresh
and happy in order to update our techniques of teaching, to know new
approaches, etc. It seems to me that professionals should look for the
opportunities of innovate and become experts in what they do.
I understood that we have to reflect on what we do, do research,
evaluate other professionals’ performance and learn from them, learn from our
mistakes. It is absolutely necessary to reflect on how we teach, in the case of
teachers, because sometimes we think we are doing it right but that is not
always the case.
We have to do research in order to comprehend what happens inside
the classroom, understand our students, and find the ways that they get more
engaged with what we teach. Since English is a difficult subject we have to
study the ways that our learners like to learn English.
We have to work with other to reach our goals, believe in group work,
peer work, couching, innovation, commitment and autonomy.
