2. There are lots accomplishments that
make me feel proud of. But I am most
proud of the fact that at my final
placement, the center offers me a
position. They saw the effort I have made
during my placement and was pleased to
work in the team with them. I can see
myself growing in a professional way that
shows I am ready for the field of early
childhood education.
3. In the journey of educating, there are many
times I face challenges and obstacle. For
example in my first placement I was so
nervous and shy. Little by little I encouraged
myself to be outgoing and confident. Towards
the second field placement I was much more
outgoing and open to the fields. I was
learning but most importantly I was gaining
and creating my own philosophy. In my last
placement I can proudly say that I am ready
to become a professional early childhood
educator.
4. As a lifelong learner and reflective practitioner I
discover that open communication is critical.
Always willing to learn and asking people for
information, and exchange in learning process
helps me learning in different ways. Talk to
people gives me an insight of others and aware
of the world around me. That helps me gain
knowledge. I have the habit of writing my daily
journal, it helps me to reflect on my daily living
and improve on those I have failed to do. Every
day for me is a learning opportunity, I like to
read and share with others.
5. I am full of passion and enthusiasm. The
reason I choose this career is because I
believe I can bring values into my career. I
don’t consider early childhood educator as a
work, or job, but I think it is something I like
to do and enjoying doing it. Isn’t it great to
do things that you like for the rest of your
life? I believe in myself that
I, children, families, communities will work
collaboratively together.
6. I think the key is to become a better
human being. I have the knowledge in
guidance to help children solve conflicts
by themselves, encourage
independence, promote self-esteem.
Children learn in the classroom to
socialize with others, but they also bring
their skills into their daily life.
