Problem
Sarah is new to the Education field. As part of her preparation to become a good teacher, she has been instructed to be in your class to develop her teaching practice skills, understand how to plan lessons, provide feedback to learners, display professional behaviours & ethics, reflective practice, among others. As a responsible mentor, help her answer the following:
1. Why does Sarah (a new adherent) need to undergo teaching practice prior to entering the education field?
2. What are the practical considerations she must consider before preparing herself for the teaching practice?
3. Why would you encourage her to plan her lessons before going to class?
4. How far do you agree /disagree with the statement below? You can reflect on the effectiveness of the plans and teaching of your lessons. "Our success or/and failure as an educator rest heavily on our ability to reflect upon our practices"
5. Why is feedback important to educators and how can it assist in enhancing her teaching?
6. How would you describe a professional educator?
