    TPI Scores

    The TPI is a survey that teachers all over the world can take in order to identify their teaching style. This survey measures five different areas of

    knowledge and expertise for example: transmission, apprenticeship,

    developmental, nurturing and social reform. For instance transmission means that good teaching is having mastery of the subject matter or content.

    Apprenticeship means that teachers are highly skilled practitioners; good teachers know what their learners can do on their own and where they need guidance and direction. The developmental perspective, according to TPI good teachers must understand how their learners think and reason about the content. The primary goal is to help learners develop increasingly complex and sophisticated cognitive structures for comprehending the content, Nurturing are those people who become motivated and productive learners when they are working on issues or problems without fear of failure. In this area learners are nurtured in knowing that they can succeed at learning if they give it a good try, and lastly the social reform establishes that the object of teaching is the collective rather than the individual. According to the results and in my personal case, my scores generally fall in the 30s that means that my individual perspectives are moderately held. The highest score I got is in nurturing; reaching the 39% and the lowest is for the social reform with a decrease rate of 25%. Apart of those differences my profile is somewhat flat.

    By interpreting the data gotten, I can state that my dominant perspective is nurturing, the back-ups are apprenticeship, developmental and transmission and my recessive perspective is the social reform which, in my very personal opinion, I found out through this survey it is a very important part in the teaching-learning process. On regards the sub-scores they differ by more than 5 points each. The discrepancies occur on the sub perspectives of beliefs and intentions. The major discrepancy occurs in the transmission perspective and the least is in the nurturing perspective, which seems to be the strongest expressed. Through this survey I could present to myself a new way of thinking in my teaching style. I know I always exhort my students to do their best in order to achieve what they want especially in the conquering of the mastery of a new language, I always wanted to become a model to follow for them that is why I have tried to acquire all the necessary competences to convey their necessities. I want to guide them and help them achieve confidence and embrace success while learning together in a nice environment where they do not feel pressure and/or fear at all. Likewise, I could realize that I do not only have to expect a change in them as individuals but also I have to expect from them somehow to change the society we live in. The changes I might inspire in them should be the same changes I want to see in society itself, they should be a reflection of professionalism and decision making.
