BEFORE

Looking forward to being a CA/Assist

Getting to know the profile of the class and students' contexts

DURING

Learned more about students' personalities and relationships with one another; finding the balance and adjusting to these factors

AFTER

Did well but know that there could still be room for improvement; 7-8.5 out of 10

Being a CA/Assist is a continuous learning process and the situation is different every year

# data[].attributes.body
Before: Excited and open

During: We questioned our classroom management styles and skills. 🙃 Some students found it hard to adapt from the Hyflex setup.

After: 9 to 10 (for not giving up given the batch💪🤣)

BEFORE:

there were hesitations to accept the task because of the mix of the students.

Attend workshops that is really essential on preparing us to become more effective Class Advisers.

DURING :

Used CareSo to address certain issues in the class and to remind to students about certain rules and regulations.

Realizing that despite being patient there are situations that can still trigger and shorten teacher's patience.

Being Class assist help newbies to learn more on xavier's classroom routines.

AFTER

Most of us rated ourselves from 8 to 10 both as CA's and assissts.

Consistency between CA's and assists is very helpful to set routines.

BEFORE

Everyone accepted the role of a CA/Assist however, there were several questions in our heads on how we could handle this role. On the other hand, we value the mantra of “asking questions” to our fellow faculty members to make sure we can do everything. There were several issues during the first year of school after the pandemic, as there were adjustments made for both the teachers and students, but we are excited.

DURING

The role of a CA/A goes hand-in-hand, and it is a partnership towards managing the class. Most of us know that this is our first time handling an all-boy class. Moreover, we need to be strict in implementing the routines. For adjustments, there are a lot, but it is a journey.

AFTER

7, It is difficult at first, but we can manage it. One of our realizations is that it is hard to design a classroom and as a CA/Assist we should be strategic in making decision for the class. Lastly, we really need to be consistent in implementing the classroom routine.

BEFORE:

Emotionally prepared myself

Prepared myself for unexpected things

DURING:

We should not be hard on ourselves. I accepted that the adviser is not always at fault when there are cases in her class. It's just the composition of the class and the way the kids were brought up at home.

Being class assist is new to me, i feel lost as a newbie. Valued people who helped me.

Was not given time to prepare as class assist. Just assumed that class assist supports the advisers.

AFTER

Common rate is 6 to 8.

Always be ready for unexpected. Plans sometimes din't happen because of circumstances.

There should be consistency with the routines set.

BEFORE

excited; we’re going back to normal (AKA face-to-face); first time CA onsite

also excited; first time CA as well and is a little challenged in how to handle the class

DURING

My patience was tested; I didn't realize that I can overcome the challenges of that SY

There were adjustments on our part where we can level up or do more than what was at hand; self-doubt was present; was it a teacher-factor? Why am

Marami ka pa palang magagawa

Discovered the effects of not having a social interaction/play time in the students' behaviors (effect of the zoomie/roomie set-up)

big adjustments; would not have survived without the support of the team

Maraming challenges along the way during the year; you thought you were prepared

Students with special needs/cases also made it even more challenging to relate to and handling the students/classes

Most of the parents also come off too strong

Conflicts between parents also get in the way with the way we handle and coordinate the cases/situations in the classroom

we were able to cope with the changes and challenges because of teamwork.

adjustments in classroom management pose a challenge

we have to be consistent with the classroom management routines

AFTER

We survived! The effort provided last school year was immeasurable.

We realized that we are effective teachers for having been able to nurture and guide them to the next grade level. #NAITAWID

Before

excited and happy

prepared most of the materials for the bulletin board

established a good mindset

prepared mentally for the responsibilities as an adviser/ assist

During

some plans/ goals were changed since students also changed over time

there were students with potential that need attention

the Class Assist also has the same command as the CA (same impact to students)

CA and assist/ subject teachers should have the same routines in class

After

6-7 because despite the things we did in class, there were still a few concerns from the parents

slight lapses done with communication/ coordination

some objectives set at the beginning of the SY were not achieved

some students were left behind especially the ones that didn't have behavioral concerns
