Erwin Manzon

My cooperating teacher, Mr. Aldrin C. Abalos became my mentor for almost two months. He really guides me and lets me experience the actual teaching-learning settings. I had many learnings acquired from him, especially in enhancing my teaching strategies and demonstrations, how to handle students with different personalities, what relationship should we possess to our students and I learned a real life task which I will have to know how to perform in a sooner future when I start teaching. I really enjoyed teaching and practicing my profession in my cooperating school because teachers, faculty and staff welcomed and accepted us wholeheartedly, especially to our cooperating teachers. Coliling National High School has a standard education. Most teachers of Coliling National High School are truly great and dedicated teachers, teachers whom I find very inspiring. They are always there to guide and mentor us student teachers in terms of difficulties. They always give their time, patience, kindness and most of all their help and support. This day, I fully realized that I am really meant for teaching profession because of the unforgettable experiences that I had encountered during the field study courses, especially the actual teaching experiences. I am thankful to be a teacher. The simplest answer to the question “Why?” is because I love it. I love it because it helps me to grow as a human being. It has created meaning in my life. Indeed, it is a daily realization. It is not easy. It is hard, disappointing, frustrating, and ultimately, powerful to make a difference in the life of my students.

Yes, while observing the preschool learners, I recalled my own experiences when I was their age. Some similarities I noticed are: - I was also very active and liked moving around a lot just like the preschoolers I observed. It was hard for me to sit still for long periods. - I enjoyed playing, drawing, singing and dancing just as the preschoolers seemed to. Creative activities held my interest the most. Some differences could be the availability of more technology now compared to when I was young. Preschoolers now may be more exposed to gadgets than I was at that age.

Why study VCE Accounting?

VCE Accounting - Michael Allison

Accounting involves recording business transactions, preparing three key financial reports (income statement, balance sheet, cash flow statement), and analyzing these reports to make informed decisions. The income statement examines revenues, expenses and profit over a period. The balance sheet outlines what a business owns (assets) and owes (liabilities), and owner's equity. The cash flow statement shows where cash comes from through operating, investing and financing activities and is important because profit does not always mean cash. Understanding these reports is essential for evaluating a business's performance and financial position.
