What does ‘be a professional’ really mean? It could be
talking about your career or job or even your role. Maybe it means you are
experienced in what you do or even that you are paid more in your work place.
However, for me it means conduct and how you portray yourself, as being a
trainee teacher means you always need to be professional and be aware of your
image to others. This means thinking about the clothes you wear to work as well
as thinking about your online image.
As a trainee teacher you need to remember that you are
always learning and need to stay up to date with the teaching standards as well
as what is happening in the government about teaching. You need to reflect
every action within lessons as well as always analysing what worked well and
what didn’t. When thinking about teaching, 3 skills that you need have come to
surface which are: having presentation skills, supporting one another and
knowing the ethics for within schools.
The best trainee teacher is considered to: be self-aware, be
prepared for uncomfortable events, draw on support when needed, know the
importance of paperwork, keep documents filled in, fit in with those in the
school both staff and students and not lose their identity within their work.
