Educational Philosophy (An essentialist)

"Books are reliable"-Mrs. Dizon


Last Thursday (August 16, 2018) on my field study observation, I got the chance to interview my cooperating teacher Mrs. Dizon

 Mrs. Dizon is a grade 7 teacher at RLLMHS, where I'm currently observing. She was a grade 10 teacher in the past, but due to a task that was given to her (reading remediation on grade 7 students), she was then transferred to teach in grade 7. Upon observing her, she was really calm when she teaches. Her voice is somewhat soft but still reaches up to the back part of the classroom, which I find interesting because on my observation her voice is really soft.

 She believes that being able to know the basic skills is very essential in learning. She said that she often use books in delivering her lessons as she finds books reliable. As a seasoned teacher, she stated that students in earlier times are more polite and concentrated in studying whereas students now are distracted from a lot of things such as having social media, having vices and having relationships. With that, she said that its harder to teach students and keep their attention as well. She knows that using new techniques in teaching might help, she said is comfortable in using the old methods in teaching.

 With my observation and interview, I can conclude that Mrs. Dizon is an essentialist.

RLLMHS's official logo with its official slogan For my blog today, I'll be talking about the educational system of Rafael L. Lazatin Memorial High School (RLLMHS). For a short background, RLLMHSformerly known as Balibago High School is located at  at Pabalan st., Don Pepe Subd, Balibago, Angeles City, Pampanga. It is the school   where I studied secondary education, my alma mater and the school where I'm currently observing.  Now, lets move on to its educational system. The school follows the k-12 curriculum as mandated by DepEd but only offers education to junior high school (JHS) and senior high school (SHS) students.  Kapampangan, Filipino, and English are oftentimes used as the teacher's medium of instruction in the school.   Because of the school's lack of classroom facility, the school build an extension at Quezon New Valley St. in Brgy. Balibago, where grade 10 students and SHS students go. The School also has shifting schedules. In the main buildi

about the blogger:  Joanna Marie Sasi Dyguazo       Annyeong chinggudeul!! or should I say, Hello readers! I'm Joanna Marie Dyguazo, also known as Joanna or  "jo" by my family and friends. I'm a 4th yr education student studying at Holy Angel University (HAU). I live in  Pampanga together with my mother,  older brother and younger sister.    During my spare time, I like to read, listen to music (specially kpop-korean pop music), watch kdramas (korean dramas) as well as horror, thriller and sci-fi (science-fiction) types of films. Becoming a teacher is  my least chosen, initially I'll have little interest on the course. But as   cliché  as it is, I had learned to love my chosen profession little by little as time passes by.  "The best teachers teach from the heart, not from the book."  In order to be effective on the field that you wish to pursue, I believe that you must study and observe how other people in that field do it. You must also
