Teaching is an art (an experience)

Hi, the educators!

Perhaps we think that teaching is a simple activity. But the reality is not! Teaching is an activity that requires a lot of things.

What is teaching? There are several views about the definition of teaching. Teaching is the process of attending to people’s needs, experiences and feelings, and making specific interventions to help them learn particular things. Another opinion said, teaching is the concerted sharing of knowledge and experience, which is usually organized within a discipline and, more generally, the provision of stimulus to the psychological and intellectual growth of a person by another person or artifact.

In my experience, teaching in front of the class should have certain skills and competencies. A teacher must have these competencies, because the learning process does not happen in a short time. Competencies I mean are pedagogic competence, personality competence, social competence, and professional competence.

A teacher must have the art of communicating in front of the class (pedagogic competence). When teachers teach, every word that comes out of their mouths is motivating words, facilitating students' understanding of the explanations of a material, words containing advice and virtues, and interacting with students so that a responsive learning process . Not everyone is able to communicate well, but a teacher must be able to do it.

In addition, teachers should also have art in classroom management. A teacher who is smart academically, but not able to manage the class, then the learning process will be monotonous. We know, our students come from different backgrounds. The art of managing classes can be done in many ways. For example classifying student seats in the classroom or how we manage conflicts that occur in the classroom. I know, there are various problems that must be faced by a teacher in their classroom. Well, this is where the art of classroom management is needed.

There are many analogies of education. As we know about the concept of education according to the Ancient Greek Philosopher, Socrates. He likens education (including teachers and students) like a midwife who helps the mother to give birth to a baby. The midwife only helps,the baby was born by the mother. The midwife is the teacher herself, the mother is the one who is educated, while the born baby is knowledge. So in the students themselves there is already knowledge, which in the language of philosophy is intended that the child is not still empty with knowledge. In the child there is knowledge, which needs help to be issued, directed, and developed.[]

Betul sekali bang @teukumukhlis
Mengajarkan satu orang saja kalo seorang guru tidak prof susah di mengerti oleh org tersebut?, apa lagi kalau satu orang guru mangajar ratusan murid.. coba banyangkan..
Salam hangat dan sukses selalu buat bang @teukumukhlis

After all, the teacher is the one who contributes to character generation after the parents at home. The teacher in the Indonesian proverb is an unsung hero. We as a child always sing the song, one of the sentence honor the teacher love the friend be a good student.

Your writing is very true because without art teaching will occur boredom of students in learning and teaching, teachers also have to be patient in teaching because students have different backgrounds and abilities are also varied in catching subjects. Hopefully your students will eventually become successful people useful for religion and country in this beloved country

Luar biasa postingan.. Banyak manfaat yg bisa kita ambil

the teacher was a lamp in the darkness

Ka mulai lom. Langsong dikap. Heheh...

Actually being a teacher now is easier than the old age teacher who has to master all the materials fluently, but now the learning system is centered on the students, the teacher only deliver the material then the students themselves dig deeper into practice and conclude while the teacher only acts as a facilitator, companions who provide motivation and appreciation because the source of learning is now very open with the Internet any information can be obtained easily, so anyone can now be a teacher, how about you @teukumukhlis?

Apologize if our opinion is wrong @syafiqali
