Teaching is learning.

Every time I teach my pupils, I realise that there are more things about educating a child that I have yet to discover and learn. Thus, to me, Teaching is Learning.

Show concern, e.g. when a student is back to school after several days of sickness, the first thing is not to ask for MC but to ask if the student is feeling better.
Be mindful of gesture and posture.
Keep Teacher-Student boundary.

Accept the pupils for who they are. The good and the bad. The good-looking and the not-so. Love and respect every individual as a person.

See the pupils as humans. Just like all of us are treated.

# data[].attributes.body
A pupil is more likely to trust the teacher more and be more engaged in learning, if there is a strong personal connection between teacher and pupil. Both teacher and pupil should communicate frequently. There should be constructive feedback and praise; criticism will dampen this relationship.

# data[].attributes.body
I believe that my role as a teacher is not just to impart knowledge, to facilitate and promote critical thinking, but teaching students how to think, help them to find their motivation for learning, discover the things they are good at, encourage and guide them towards achieving their goals and ambitions in life. I believe that every child has the potential to excel in their studies and in the future.

I also believe that as a teacher, my role is to inculcate values in my students to help develop them into students of good character and values that will help students to persevere on and succeed in the future.

I believe in leading students to have a growth mindset and empowering them to make decisions and succeed in the various areas of their life, facing challenges positively and knowing that they have tried and can always learn something from their failures.
I believe in a culture where students know that everyone matters and are accepted and they look out for each other.

'The greatest sign of success for a teacher is to be able to say, "The children are now working as if I did not exist."

Write one MOE guideline that stood out to you and  how you would apply this guideline when using social media to interact with your students.

# data[].attributes.body
If it's online, it's public. I totally agree because everytime when we sign up for some online platform, there is an agreement where we have to click agree/disagree to allow information to be saved and stored by the owner of the platform hence all these information can be retrieved even when we delete it online. Anyone who requires this information can request it from the owner of the platform to assist in police investigations or government actions. So, post very carefully and responsibly because it's always very public to others but not to you. I will bear that in mind everytime I press the "submit" or "post" button.

(a) If it's online, it's public.

I will avoid using social media platforms like Facebook.
