I made a presentation that functioned as


a guide for middle schoolers who were
preparing to enter high school. Here, I'm
presenting some of my cherished high
school experiences.

I'm interacting with my 7th grade


students, and gaining knowledge on their
own perception of what they believe high
school will be like. They respond with
various answers, mainly hoping for more
autonomy and less homework.

Ms. Pulido and her student take a quick


break of a long essay session and enjoy
some quality discussion. Here, they were
discussing the latest books and trends.

My 7th grade students enjoy a quality


lecture over how to write an expository
essay. They discuss ways to grade
previous essays and improve them.

The students are engaging in quality


study group time. They are reading
passages and discussing the
accompanying questions.

Here, I'm giving the students on some


advice and tips on how to maintain and
raise your grades. I elaborate on the
importance of planners, tutoring, and
punctuality.

Ms. Pia Pulido, 7th grade Pre-AP Language

This year, during my internship for Instructional Practices in


Education, I was able to aid my host teacher Ms. Pulido in her 7th grade
Pre-AP English classroom. Her classroom is a mosaic of grammar related posters with the desks situated
in the front, while her personal desk is placed in the back to properly overlook and supervise the class. I
was able to firsthand experience a discordant room with lively students that expressed their opinions on a
topic loud and proud. I was fortunate enough to build proper relationships with these strong personalities
and be adored as Miss P!.
As a student teacher intern, Ms. Pulido taught me a great deal of what factors come with teaching
like grading, paperwork, handling difficult students in the proper manner, and most importantly, teaching!
With her guidance and active mentoring, I was able to quickly adapt to the environment and become
comfortable with openly discussing and tutoring the students in her class. Soon enough, they started to
come to me alone to talk them through assignments and ask questions regarding a certain topic.
Fortunately, Ms.Pulido granted me a high level autonomy over the classroom and urged me to come up
with my own lessons and presentations that she would like me to go over alone with the class. She
acknowledged my hard work and really showed me how much I was capable of. Additionally, she has
provided great insight in this industry and help mold what I would like to pursue in the nearby future.
Along with having a great mentor, the entire Travis Middle School staff has been very
welcoming, and treated us with great hospitality. The environment of the school is filled with enthusiasm,
excitement, and of course, learning! This school has provided me with a memorable intern experience that
I am forever grateful for. Thanks to Ms. Pulido and the entire Travis Middle School staff, I can say that I
have been able to talk a lot from this experience and I hope to remodel and implement what I have learned
in my own classroom in the future.
