Three topics that have struck me include the challenges of teaching, pillars of education, and lastly the code of ethics. The topic challenges in teaching, talk about the real deal when we choose to be a maker of professionals. It struck me because it had opened my eyes to the reality of the path I am taking with. It’s no rainbows after all, but rather a journey full of setbacks that will test out the passion to go on and live with our responsibilities. Although these challenges that our educators had encountered and that I will soon undergo are a testimony of how noble and fulfilling our profession is that even despite the hurdles we still manage to rise from it bringing our goal to transform individuals. The pillars of education have also captured my attention during our discussions because it constitutes the very strength of our purpose. It all made sense why teachers and education play a vital role in the holistic development of every individual and I am very much blessed to be able to study and be able to take the path I wanted. Lastly, the code of ethics, which gives so much life and essence of what really it’s like when we embark on this profession. I have learned so much a lot with the various codes that talk about our profession but the bottom-line of that is the dignity and pride a teacher should embody and that I should embody as well considering that I will soon become one.
