My Learning Episode Overview

Teaching is a respectable profession the world over. The status of teachers

has been comparable in all parts of the globe, hence each year, a celebration of
the WORLD TEACHER’S DAY!
This alone would tell us, the recognition and honor given to the best profession
of all: TEACHING. A teacher is an extraordinary person in whose hands lie the
future of the world. A teacher regardless of what country he/she comes from
should be a GLOBAL TEACHER or the TEACHER of the WORLD.

 My Reflections/Insights

1. If the NCBTS is the measure of a global teacher, can the teacher you
interviewed be able to meet the challenges of global education? Why?
Why not?

Yes, Because every child needs a teacher. They hold the keys to the
sustainable development of every society. Whatever may be the specialization
of every teacher, local governments prioritize education in national education
policies in order to change the system from the traditional ways.

2. Are there similarities or differences among teachers in other countries

in terms of the standard requirements for a professional teacher?
Explain your answer.

In terms of the standard requirements for professional teachers differ in

every country. For example, in New Zealand, The Bachelor of Teaching
degree is a three –year programme designed to enable graduates to meet the
requirements for initial teacher registration. While on the other hand, The
Australian Professional standards for Teachers make explicit what effective
teachers should know and be able to do.

3. Are Filipino teachers comparable to their fellow teachers in other

countries? Explain your answer.

Teachers are given satisfactory or positive trust ratings in every country.

There is a demonstrable link between the level of teacher’s salaries in a
country and their educational record. But the influence of teacher status – the
social characteristics that determine how much we respect teachers.

4. How would you prepare to become a global teacher of the 21 st century?

How do you see yourself?

As a future global teacher, I must prepare myself to become a globally

competitive and aware of the educational system of other countries. I should
be knowledgeable in information technology so that I can use it to improve my
skills in teaching and should always apply new techniques in teaching and be
open to different changes in the society.

The qualities of an outstanding teacher
are manifold. However some of the most
important qualities are passion, leadership,
classroom management, and content knowledge.
Essentially teachers accommodate the academic,
social, and emotional needs of their students.

Mrs. Brenly Mendoza, a teacher in

Mathematics of Ligao National High School,

Outstanding Teacher in Albay, it was a
unforgettable moment for her to be one of the
Outstanding Teacher. She said that when novice
teachers begin teaching they possess a passion
for their work.   As time progresses that passion
evolves into determination. The passion that an
outstanding teacher has can reflect through their
effectiveness. While in the classroom they have
learned to adapt to various learning styles and
