Job Shadow Reflective Narrative
|
I got the opportunity to job shadow Yesenia Rojas which she is a Middle school teacher that teaches history. The job shadow took place on December 16, 2014. I spent about 4 hours observing her job. The reason why I chosed this was because I always wanted to become a teacher and I felt like this was a great chance of actually being able to have an overlook on this job position. This school was Wilson Middle School which is located in Exeter.
Throughout the whole time I was there I walked around and sat observing the way the students were acting. Also I was paying attention to what the teacher was doing. It is actually pretty interesting what students do while the teacher isn’t looking because who knew that's what students do. It really got to my attention that students were being really rude and not paying attention even when I was there observing.
I learned that being a teacher isn’t as easy as it looks. This is because there is more than one student that might need help and you might not be able to help them all at once. Also it is really hard to get every student to focus. The part that I like is that you get to teach students so that they learn new things they didn’t know before. I really dislike that students are actually really rude to the teacher even though she is there to help them.
Since I got to observe this job it actually made me not what to become a teacher. This is because I don’t think I would have that much patiences for the students.
