Self Evaluation of My Academic Year (2009)

This essay is my evaluation of my school year, but first I will talk a little about myself.I study the initial nursery and primary education at the University of Chile. The career lasts 10 semesters and now I am in the sixth semester. The review of these six semesters has been very good. I met new people, I read interesting books but I've also worked hard.
When I think I'm in the third year of the career, although I can not believe that time has passed so quickly. I remember the first half, when I was so worried and nervous that I thought would fail all courses, but I approved all courses.

This school year, for me it was very good because I gained new experiences and new knowledge. I had were very diverse courses, some courses good and some courses bad. I liked some courses and others not. Among the subjects that I liked was "Family", this course was very important, because we saw education from its social roots and that to me is fundamental. Another class that I liked was "Language” that class helped me know the process of reading and writing in children, it was very interesting. But there were not so good classes, like "educational evaluation" deflating in time. This course started very well, but then stalled.

Also in this school year, I learned how to implement diverse projects and research. As I said, this school year helped me gain new experiences. The new experience was that I learned that many people do not work together, because there is a responsibility within the team and the friends are ineffective for work.

I think this school year has been better than the last, because I'm more mature and focused on the race. I've also learned over the practice in schools and that to me is very important. I think it was a nice and productive school year.

In conclusion I feel increasingly more prepared to perform as a teacher. I want to quickly finish my career in order to exercise and perform small but profound changes in Chilean education. But I hope to be ready to enter college and to teach all I know.I am increasingly confident that a quality education is the first step to defeat the social injustice. I believe that education enables people to think and analyze their actions. I am a lover of education, but of a quality education for all social sector and make possible to all children. And I also hope that the teachers we are a socially valued professionals.
