TPI Reflection

According to the TRP survey, what I think about myself is that my dominant prospective is apprehension and nurture. It means my concern as well as the support to my students are way more than the other three prospective. I believe I am too much worried about my students. Hence, I help them a lot. From my experience, I think the observations are true, as in India teachers helped the students a lot in their work, thinking they facilitate their learning but in reality, they are encouraging spoon-feeding.

   Over here in Canada, the learning environment is different. Therefore, I need to be more focused on this area, to help student be independent on their work, as well as providing help when needed. This would ultimately result in building their self-confidence. Social reform (29) prospective is recessive for me, where as developmental prospective is 33. From this score, I can conclude that my teaching does not expect any social change. Overall, my expectations from the students are a bit high, so I need to lower my prospect in comparison to the learner’s development. Moreover, my beliefs and intentions scored lower, as compared to my actions.
