Science Methods class has come to an end and I have learned a lot about science and myself as a teacher. For the last class everyone shared their efolios and discussed how this class furthered their knowledge to become a better science teacher. When I got to the front of the classroom to show the rest of the class my efolio I began to reflect on how I've come since I walked into class the first day of last semester for Social Studies methods. I was unsure of myself, and wasn't confident that I would be a good teacher. As I was talking about how my knowledge grew throughout my time in Dr. Smirnova's class I realized that I am a lot more comfortable talking in front of a classroom. One area I have always been concerned about is classroom management. Through practice and repetition I feel I am ready for student teaching. I was extremely nervous that I did not have what it took to be a teacher, but thanks to this experience I know I will be a good teacher who will do whatever it takes to do what is best for my students.
