TEACHING IS NOT EASY BUT IT IS VERY INTERESTING JOB

TEACHING IS NOT EASY BUT IT IS VERY INTERESTING JOB

TEACHING IS NOT EASY BUT IT IS VERY INTERESTING JOB

As we all know, teaching is not easy but it is very interesting job. It may seem easy to study at a University and prepare yourself to be a teacher, but when it is the time to practice it may not look as easy as it was expected. There are some important things you should keep as a good teacher.
Well, the most thing you should have to be a successful teacher is to know your students and their needs well. Your classes have many students with different backgrounds, education knowledge, learning strategies, needs, and may be culture. It is very important to know your students before starting teach. If you teach grammar and structure, for example, ask your students to write a short paragraph about themselves. You can collect their work and check it later. Their work will tell you their background and knowledge of grammar rules and sentence structure. So, getting an idea about the entire needs of your students is the most important factor in being a professional teacher.
Professional teachers enjoy their job and vary their roles in the class. You may want to be the person who provides the students information. But besides being information deliverer, you can be a close friend of them, a parent, and a promoter. You can enjoy and vary your role in the class in a way that interests both, your students and you. You never can better when you enjoy your job. Creating a relaxed environment helps you successfully cover a great amount of the content. Besides, you will realize better participation of your students with time and therefore learning will happen.
One thing more, students have different learning strategies, so successful and professional teachers vary their teaching techniques. Using the same method every time does not help reaching the goal. Some of your students can not react to a specific method but they can do much better with another one. From the other hand, the used method can be suitable for a specific content of a lesson but not for another one. Using the GTM or Direct method, for example, can be good in a lesson but not in another. Some students may react to TPR while others may not show clear reaction or great interest in the method. Choosing good activities or practice tasks is another factor here. Think carefully how you can assess your students new language and set the best activity for that. You can use pair or group work one time, and oral discussion other time, and many more activities.


Professional teachers

Professional teachers

Professional teachers:

To sum up, being a good and successful teacher is not a talent, but a skill you learn and acquire through time. The list bellow shows the most important features of professional teachers:
Professional teachers:
1.      Know their students well.
Students are not only intellectual but also social and emotional beings, and all these dimensions interact to impact learning and performance.
2.      A Professional teacher respects students. 
In the classroom, each person’s ideas and opinions are valued. Students feel safe to express their feelings and learn to respect and listen to others. This teacher creates a welcoming learning environment for all students.
3.      Joke with their students and create relaxed class environment
4.      Are always patient with students
A professional teachers possess good listening skills and take time out of their way-too-busy schedules for anyone who needs them. If this teacher is having a bad day, no one ever knows. The teacher leaves personal baggage outside the school doors.
5.      Plan everything before they come to the class
Ø  Understand learner’s needs
Ø  Diagnose learner’s learning problems
Ø  Plan suitable instructional goals for lessons
Ø  Select and design learning tasks
Ø  Evaluate students learning
Ø  Design and adapt tests
Ø  Evaluate and choose published materials
Ø  Adapt commercial materials
Ø  Make us of authentic materials
Ø  Make appropriate use of technology
Ø  Evaluate their own lessons
6.      Develop a plan
Writing a personal professional development plan, will help you to identify the specific tasks and goals you need to complete to achieve progress in your career. Aim to identify both short-term and long-term goals with time scales included. This will focus your planning and enable you to monitor and assess your professional progress, as well as enhancing your personal motivation.
7.      Never waste time
A professional teacher understands the need to start the day well, every day. Truly professional teachers will make sure that they arrive at least ten minutes before the first bell rings, so as to prepare themselves mentally for the day ahead.


Demonstrate your competency

Demonstrate your competency

1.Demonstrate your competency
These days it is no longer enough to claim you have the skills and experience necessary to do a job; you need to provide evidence as proof. Once you have identified the competencies (knowledge, skills and behaviour) required for a specific job it is essential that you provide examples of how you acted in real situations in the past which demonstrate these competencies

2.Vary and use different teaching techniques
3.Look for the most suitable activities for students

4.Take an interest in every student
The better you get to know your students, the more influence you will have on their attitude towards your subject and on their lives in general. Remember the adage: "Teachers touch eternity; they never know where their influence may end."

5.Give their students enough time to learn and practice
It so easy to waste time in lessons and not accomplish what you want. Use time limits, say things such as: "Ok, you have 10 minutes to do the activity". This will push students into action. Put a timer in your classroom and let it ring when the time is over. Even better, have a student keep the time. Make it clear and include a timed agenda of how many minutes you are going to be spending on each part of the lesson. This ensures that your lesson moves swiftly and at a good pace.

6.Consult parents. 
Try to include parents in the educational process and encourage their support of the school's disciplinary processes and procedures. Be polite and calm when dealing with parents. Keep reminding them that every discussion about the child needs to be undertaken with the child's best interests at heart.

7.Take responsibility for your students' results. 
As a professional teacher, the grades your students achieve are a reflection on you. Bear this in mind, in all you do.

8.Focus on the goal

Being a professional teacher does not mean that you have to be uncaring or boring if you keep in mind these three principles:

1.See yourself as the students’ mentor, not their friend. 
Effective teachers care about their students and want to be involved in their lives, but they also realize that they must take the role of mentor, not friend. A mentor steers and guides his students without acting like their peer.

2.Be friendly, not familiar. 
Be friendly and open in your interactions with students, but avoid being familiar.

3.Care more about being effective than being liked. 
While everyone has an innate desire to be liked, you cannot let this natural inclination control you as a teacher. If you worry about whether or not your students like you, you won’t be professional, and your classroom will become very difficult to control. Instead, focus on your desire to be an effective teacher whom the students can respect.

Conclusion
Being a good and successful teacher is not a talent, but a skill you learn and acquire through time. The list bellow shows the most important features of professional teachers:
·       
Know their students well.
A Professional teacher respects students. 
Joke with their students and create relaxed class environment

Never waste time
Demonstrate your competency

BIOGRAPHY OF THE POET

BIOGRAPHY OF THE POET


A.   BIOGRAPHY OF THE POET

Robert Frost was born on March 26, 1874 in San Francisco, California. He spent the first 12 years of his life there, until his father, William Prescott Frost Jr., died of tuberculosis. Following his father's passing, Frost moved with his mother and sister Jeanie to the town of Lawrence, Massachusetts. They moved in with his grandparents, and Frost attended Lawrence High School, where he met his future love and wife, Elinor White, his co-valedictorian.

After his high school graduation in 1892, Frost attended Dartmouth University for several months, returning home to work a slew of unfulfilling jobs. In 1894, he had his first poem, "My Butterfly: an Elegy," published in The Independent, a weekly literary journal based in New York City. With this success, Frost proposed to Elinor, who was attending St. Lawrence University. She turned him down because she first wanted to finish school. Frost then decided to leave on a trip to Virginia, and when he returned, he proposed again. By then, Elinor had graduated from college, and she accepted. They married on December 19, 1895, and had their first child, Elliot, in 1896.

Beginning in 1897, Frost attended Harvard University, but had to drop out after two years due to health concerns. He returned to Lawrence to join his wife, who was now pregnant with their second child, Lesley, who suffered from mental illness. In 1900, Frost moved with his wife and children to a farm in New Hampshire—property that Frost's grandfather had purchased for them—and they attempted to make a life on it for the next 12 years. Though it was a fruitful time for Frost's writing, it was a difficult period in his personal life.

Elinor gave birth to four more children, Carol (1902); Irma (1903), who later developed mental illness; Marjorie (1905); and Elinor (1907), and two of the Frost children died. Elliot died of cholera in 1900, and Elinor died of complications from birth just weeks after she was born. Additionally, during that time, Frost and Elinor tried several endeavors, including poultry farming, all of which were fairly unsuccessful.

Despite such challenges, it was during this time that Frost acclimated himself to rural life. In fact, he grew to depict it quite well, and began setting many poems in the countryside. While two of these, "The Tuft of Flowers" and "The Trial by Existence," would be published in 1906, he could not find any publishers who were willing to underwrite his other poems.

B.     ANALYSIS
Line 1
Nature's first green is gold,

Ø  This line gives us the setting of the poem—we're in nature, in case you were snoozing. And we're talking about nature's first green, which makes us think about spring.

Ø  The speaker, though, says this first green is actually gold. This makes us think of trees like the willow, which are golden early in spring, before they mature to green.

Ø  But it also makes us think of the morning, when the sun rises and makes everything a bit golder than normal, all bathed in the dawn light.


Her hardest hue to hold.

Her hardest hue to hold.

Line 2

Her hardest hue to hold.

Ø  Now that our speaker has told us that nature is gold before it's green, he goes on to say that gold is the hardest hue, or color, for nature to hold, or keep. So the first color we see in spring doesn't stick around very long.

Ø  The idea of nature having an easy or hard time holding onto something is an example of personification. And not only is nature personified here, it's actually made into a female figure.

Ø  You know what else we notice about this line? Check out all those H sounds. That's some major alliteration right there. And it this short line, all those rapid-fire H sounds right in a row force us to slow down and really ponder over the meaning.

Ø  Then there's the rhyme. Hold rhymes with gold, which means we've got a rhymed couplet here.

And since these lines have the same number of syllables, we're gonna go ahead and assume there's a meter in play, too. In fact, there is—iambic trimeter, to be precise. Be sure to click on over to our "Form and Meter" section for more.


Line 3
Her early leaf's a flower;

The speaker wants to be clear here, so he's going to elaborate on what he was talking about in Line 1. Just like nature's first green is gold, her first leaf is a flower. In spring, trees and bushes bloom with gorgeous flowers, which are replaced by green leaves in the summer.

Frost is really getting into his poetic groove here, when he pops a metaphor into this line. The first flowers of spring aren't actually leaves in disguise; the speaker is using figurative language to intentionally blur the line between flowers and leaves. Eventually, in real life, the blooms die and drop off the trees, making room for the leaves, which come to soak in nourishment from the sun.

Line 4
But only so an hour.

This line completes the alternating structure of the first four lines. If nature's first green, gold, doesn't stick around long, then it only makes sense that the first version of the leaf, which is the flower, doesn't stick around long either.

As the speaker says in this handy rhyme, the first leaf is a flower for only an hour. This doesn't literally mean that the trees or plants the speaker is referring to bloom for exactly an hour. But blooms, as you'll know if you've ever gardened, only last a few days, or weeks, depending on the plant.

Or, Frost could be talking about how, when the sun comes up, everything is golden and flower-like. But then, when the sun gets high in the sky and everything becomes its normal color, what once looked like golden flowers now look like what they truly are—green leaves.

Line 5
Then leaf subsides to leaf.

This line shows us what happens after the early leaf is no longer figuratively a flower—it becomes a true leaf. But the speaker doesn't say "becomes," he says "subsides." This means that the first leaf sank down, or settled, to become another leaf.

The use of the word "subsides" implies that the speaker thinks that the first leaf—the flower of sorts—was better than the actual leaf. The first leaf had to stoop down, or lower itself, to become the second one.


Going with our two interpretations, this means that either spring blooms and flowers are more beautiful than the full leaves of summer, or that leaves in the early morning are much prettier than leaves at, say, midday.

ANALYSIS SOUND CHECK

ANALYSIS SOUND CHECK


ANALYSIS SOUND CHECK

Frost doesn't just rely on boring old meter and rhymes to make music in this one. He's got alliteration, assonance, consonance, and slant rhymes up the wazoo to add some flavor to the mix.

We'll walk you through a few examples:

Line 2: Her hardest hue to hold. Um, alliteration much? Check out all those H's.

Line 3: Her early leaf's a flower; All those L's? Totally consonance, and totally awesome.

Lines 5 and 6: Then leaf subsides to leaf. / So Eden sank to grief. We've got the long E's of leaf, Eden and grief for a healthy dose of assonance and internal rhyme.

Line 7: So dawn goes down to day. Dawn and down? Shmoop smells slant rhyme.

All these little sonic moments make this poem an echo chamber of sorts, with repetition in more than just its imagery. We're constantly being reminded of the poem's meaning with these clever repetitions, and they only enhance the fleetingness of the poem, as the silence when we're done is all the more deafening for it's lack of music.

ANALYSIS WHAT'S UP WITH THE TITLE?.

The title and last line are general enough that we can think of this poem metaphorically. We can picture Michael Phelps looking at his gold medals in 2050 and missing the athleticism that faded into old age. Or an old movie star, looking in the mirror at her wrinkled face, missing the golden days of youth. We can see a teenager, packing up her bags to go to college, worried about student loans and whether or not she's going to make it academically, missing the days when she was a little kid, when mom and dad took care of everything.

So yes, gold the metal can actually stay gold for a while, but the golden things in life, the speaker suggests with this title, always seem to fade away.
