“Teaching is a journey where every lesson shapes not just the students, but the teacher too.” Week 7 of my Phase 2 teaching practice at GMGHS Thevally was a remarkable blend of academic focus, innovative teaching experiences, responsibilities beyond the classroom, and deep emotional reflections. As the Christmas exam drew closer, the week demanded effective revision strategies, diagnostic assessments, and meaningful consolidation of concepts across classes. Alongside teaching, I also became part of school events such as health check-ups, educational visits, and my last PT duty. The emotional weight of this week was undeniable because it marked the final stretch of my entire B.Ed teaching practice journey — a phase that shaped my growth as a teacher in countless ways.  Day 29 – 24/11/25 - Monday The day began with three scheduled periods in 8B Chemistry, 9B Physics, and 9A Physics.

“Teaching is not about answering questions, but about raising questions – opening doors for students in places they could not imagine.” Week 5 of my Phase 2 teaching practice at GMGHS Thevally proved to be a blend of academic responsibilities, assessments, classroom teaching, diagnostic practices, extracurricular duties and immense learning. This week, I stepped more deeply into the role of a teacher— not just instructing but assessing, diagnosing, guiding, correcting and supporting students in academic and co-curricular spaces. With tests, observation classes, rally preparations, Children's Day celebrations, quiz competitions, and daily classroom interactions, every day demanded adaptability, planning and reflective thinking. This week strengthened my belief that teaching is equally about understanding learners as it is about delivering content. Day 19 – Monday, 10/11/2025 The first day of the week started actively, with a test paper in 8B Chemistry during a first-hour substitutio...

"Teaching is not just about lessons in the classroom; it’s about the lessons we learn through every experience we live." The fourth week of my Phase 2 teaching practice at GMGHS Thevally, from November 5th to November 8th, 2025, was a week filled with enthusiasm, responsibility, and moments of pride.

"The best teachers are those who show you where to look, but don’t tell you what to see." The third week of my Phase 2 teaching practice at GMGHS Thevally was filled with diverse experiences, deeper learning moments, and increasing confidence in managing multiple classes and topics.
