where you are from?
where you have taught/lead?
What, in the last 5 years, has influenced your beliefs about teaching and learning and the impact this has had on your practice?
I decided to start mine with a mini mihi. Couple of reasons why I did this. Firstly, something I think is important in learning is to feel safe enough to enable you to take risks, and secondly, Te Reo Maori is something that interests me and is an area of learning I want to develop further for myself and my learners.
I was very nervous, spoke way too quickly but I think it showed my beliefs as I took a risk - many in the room were much better at speaking Maori than I am, but they appreciated my effort.
Influences on my teaching were primarily in the room as I have learnt so much more from being on the job and surrounded by amazingly inspirational mentors, rather than through the GradDip.
So much I didn't say, but I was proud of my mihi and as nerve wracking as it was I'm very glad I did it!
