Professionaism in Education for New Teachers
Displaying and practicing a professional demeanor initiates respect and sets the tone in your classroom.
When you show that you take your procedures seriously and have smooth transitions from task to task, you maximize student learning and create a professional school environment. This has much to do with positive and appropriate interactions with your students as well as colleagues if collaborating on lesson plans.
Part of professionalism in education is positive and appropriate interactions with students, colleagues, and families. When you have positive interactions with the school community, then you are modeling the behavior you want to see in your classroom. Another point to make is your physical appearance. If you dress neat and tidy then you will be making a point to your students that you are ready for the day. They will respect that more than if you wore sandals and a flannel. The social environment starts with you and the students will feed off of that.
Being a teacher does not mean your education is over. It is imperative that you continue to grow and develop as an educator based on evalutations and feedback. You should also attend trainings that teach professionalism in education as a check-in to see where you may need more work.
What aspect of professionalism will be most challenging for you and why?
As a new teacher, I will be utilizing my colleagues and mentors to help me in this area. It is not a bad idea to refer to them when I am unsure about copyright issues or how to appropriately give someone credit. I will continue to research on my own and even download credible sources that have these guidelines.
