and hard work for me to learn the necessary things that are important in my future work
as a professional educator like you. Your guidance provides me the opportunity to be
able to engage myself in teaching and improve it in a creative way. I know it is hard
being a cooperating teacher especially on this time of pandemic that we are doing a
distance learning approach in education. But then, you are still there to impart your
knowledge and skills for my improvement. I am so grateful that you are my cooperating
teacher. Not just because of your kindness but on the same nature of choice in
education. We both love math and that’s why we understand each other’s side. The fear
and nervousness that I felt before my deployment as an intern was replaced by
excitement and joy because of what personality that you have. I am looking forward to
more academically related experiences to you as my cooperating teacher. Working with
your guidance makes my foundation in teaching strong.
