These images came up into my mind at the first time I came to PETA class...
I was thinking, were all of them related to our future as a language teacher? I'm not studying history or geography!, shouted my mind at that time. Ten minutes after the lesson began, I started nodding my head; yes, this is what I need to be an extraordinary teacher. I have to pay attention to this course since I need many knowledge about PETA. Not Pembela Tanah Air or map, but Principle of Effective Teaching and Learning.
From the first meeting, Ms Tika showed us an original song made by Pak Iwan that motivate us to be an awesome teacher who never stop learning. Unfortunately, she didn't want perform that song for us :( . That song became such an eliciting that bring us into the next activity, describing the characteristics of effective teaching. The most interesting part is, we didn't have to look at a long list listed by the experts; we decided by ourselves what the characteristics are. Our previous experience helped us developing the list. By doing this, I can know what are the effective teaching according to my friends. Since our age is not far from Senior High School students, the answers can help me identifying what my students want later on. Some of them are:
- consider students' need
- well-prepared and complete resources
- supporting students' potencies
- focus on the basic objectives

I agree with you, we should pay attention with this course because with this course we can learn how to an awesome teacher. I hope we can be teachers like that :D amen
4 Ulung, my Twin sista,
Yes, God must hear our prayer to be awesome teachers...
However, I think, in order to be a great teacher we cannot just learn from this course. Even I heard that teachers who have taught for years still learn to teach effectively. Maybe that's what we call "Long Life Learning, Long Life Teaching"
^^d
