THOUGHTS FOR PRE-SERVICE AND BEGINNING TEACHERS (5)

14. Regardless of your position, SEEK FEEDBACK from a critical friend or colleague on thing you do well and elements of your performance needing attention and improvement. Be open to advice – it helps.

15. BRIEF DAILY SUMMARIES can be useful. Summary might include:

*Activity/project;

*How did I feel (+’s and -‘s);

*What did I learn;

*Implications for study/ work (tasks), people (relations) and self.

Remember that recognising the positives of personal and professional performance is important. It is not one-way self-criticism because that does not lead to a balanced reflection.
