On being taught by a students

Students said that their duties as a student are really exhausted difficult. They need to finish their assignments and projects and study their notes fort he upcoming test or quiz. They need to listen carefully and attentively to the teacher and take down some notes, but did they come to heir mind that the on who taught them has more responsibilities their duties. I think that is the reason why University of the Philippines launched the Know Your School Days activity, where student replaced their teachers and teach their fellow students. The main purpose of this activity is to appreciate what a teacher does to his/her students. Before the time has come for the opening of the Know Yours School Days activity students who are going to be teacher were very busy. Some were preparing for the materials he/she needed for his/her discussion. Some were also writing for visual aides of his /her topic and they were also practicing on how he/she will introduce the topic he/she will going to discuss. Until the most waited moments had come, the launching of the "Know Your School Day activity. The flow of the program started with enthusiastic emcees from the second year student and brief welcome address by the principal. The time has come for introducing the student teachers. Every Bartlett goes upon a stage us always & supports him/her by giving big hands and shouting but not s loud. After the program of the launching of the Know Your School Day activity. I asked myself what would be my feelings on being taught by fellow students? That question was answered when he first period of the class of that day started of course with the student teacher. I can see that the student teachers were tense very tense as if they didn't know what to do. But they had overcome their tense as they started discussing their topic of choice. I know that they had tried their best in teaching. A hundreds of effort gave them to us. And I really appreciate the effort they gave towards us. When it was dismissal time, I saw the student teachers taking a deep breath, as if they were prison for a long time and the turns were discard when they were able to get out of their prison. Again, the student teachers of the next subject were very busy preparing. And then the time has come for the discussions I have noticed that the student teaches of that subject were very prepared, they had really planned what is the flow of the discussion. They had successfully done a good one. S the time passed by all the student teachers were very happy because they had done what should be done for that day. The time has come for the closing of the activity. Student teaches who became teachers were given a certificate of participation of being a teacher just for 2 days. It is also a way of appreciating what the student teachers done.

Well, like the others, I have lots of experienced and great feelings on being taught by fellow students. I was really nervous of my teacher because he/she might ask me to answer his/her question. I also afraid of my teacher because he/she might have hatred with me and he/she might use his/her authority as a teacher to hurt my feelings or to make me embarrass in front of my classmates, any possible thing that he/she wanted me to do. I experienced a chaos class during the discussion of one of my student teachers. As far as I've known, the student teachers of that period have ac conflict with his students. I didn't have so much of comments and reactions. I just thought that the student teachers were the real teachers of ours. Because of this activity, I realized that being a teacher is not an easy job. A hundreds of thousands of effort must be exert. Based on my observations, teaching is like a food, if you don't put any seasonings/additives, the food will be tasteless. So if you don't put your mind, heart and soul the type of teaching you will have is also tasteless.
