WHAT I LEARNED AS CMP MENTOR

I have learned that being a CMP Mentor is not just teaching students how to read but it is how you interact and teach students how to enjoy and love reading. Being CMP mentor requires a lot of patience, understanding and care for your students.

As I attended three sessions of mentoring I realized that as a mentor patience is really a need. It’s not about teaching a child how to read but also about the interaction between you and the child. This program also reflects me as a student in our class.

I did not only learn but I also gain knowledge from this experience. I salute those teachers who have made it through the years in these raw minds of our youth, that I know someday will run in our country. I questioned myself “how did they get me to read? “ But I never get the answer because it’s not how I did it but to where it brought me. I may not teach these Kids to read like poo, but I know that I touched a part of their future that we will both treasure.

As a CMP Mentor, I realized that being a teacher of a first grader is not as easy as it seems to be. You must have lots of PATIENCE, understand the situation of the child and develop strong relationships between the child and the mentor to achieve the purpose in the said program. So as of now, this experience will always be part of my life. I always bear in mind that “Knowledge is only part of understanding. Genuine understanding comes from hands-on experience”

I’ve learned how to make a difference through the most common things in life. I also discover the fun of reading.

I learned many things specially on extending my patience.

Indeed I said to myself that “PATIENCE IS AVIRTUE”. Creative Communication is a must in this arena of teaching a first grader pupil.

I learned to appreciate the profession of teaching, since teaching kids (Grade 1) is not easy. I also learned to lengthen my patience. The CMP has somehow prepared me to parenthood.
