Max Ehrmann
Desiderata
Go placidly amid the noise and haste,
and remember what peace there may be in silence.
As far as possible without surrender
be on good terms with all persons.
Speak your truth quietly and clearly;
and listen to others,
even the dull and the ignorant;
they too have their story.
Avoid loud and aggressive persons,

they are vexations to the spirit.
If you compare yourself with others,
you may become vain and bitter;
for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself.
Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans.
Keep interested in your own career, however humble;

it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.
Exercise caution in your business affairs;
for the world is full of trickery.
But let this not blind you to what virtue there is;
many persons strive for high ideals;
and everywhere life is full of heroism.
Be yourself.
Especially, do not feign affection.
Neither be cynical about love;
for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment
it is as perennial as the grass.
Take kindly the counsel of the years,

gracefully surrendering the things of youth.
Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune.
But do not distress yourself with dark imaginings.
Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness.
Beyond a wholesome discipline,
be gentle with yourself.
You are a child of the universe,

no less than the trees and the stars;
you have a right to be here.
And whether or not it is clear to you,
no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.
Therefore be at peace with God,

whatever you conceive Him to be,
and whatever your labors and aspirations,
in the noisy confusion of life keep peace with your soul.
With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams,

it is still a beautiful world.
Be cheerful.
Strive to be happy.

LET’S DIG DEEPER!
The challenge of globalization goes with the challenge of teacher education

program on multicultural education. Teachers’ readiness for multicultural education
goes with their knowledge, preparation, and understanding of the culture, linguistics,
economy and ethnic diverse issues. Moreover, there is a great demand for teachers
teaching multicultural classes to recognize identity, encourage respect and promote
mutual understanding across different cultures and traditions.
Once you have developed these foundations of empathy, valuing multiple
perspectives, and a commitment to equity worldwide, you’re ready to move on to
enhancing the knowledge and skill sets that characterize globally competent
teaching. In terms of knowledge, globally competent teachers:
 Are familiar with global conditions and current events.
 Are aware how the world is interconnected.
 Have experiential understanding of diverse cultures.
 Understand intercultural communication.
MODULE

The skills that characterize globally competent teaching include:
 Creating a classroom environment that values diversity.
 Integrating global learning experiences into the curriculum.
 Facilitating intercultural conversations and partnerships.
 Assessing students’ global competence development.

teaching multicultural classes should Eliminate, Reduce, Raise and Create. Provide
only at least 3 teaching skills for each box.

Who is a Professional Teacher?
To become a professional teacher, an individual must pass through rigorous
training that encompasses classroom management, proper use of instructional
materials, and a host of other training. Professional teachers have a wide variety of
responsibilities, some of which include developing classroom curricula, teaching
courses, helping students in their academic guidance, and proctoring exams.
Alternatively, you can enroll for a bachelor’s degree in education in a university and
obtain a first degree in education. Bachelor’s degree holders in education are
employed in both junior and secondary schools and are expected to have majored in
a particular subject area.
Continue With Further Training and Higher Education
To be qualified to be called a professional teacher, you must continue to develop

yourself via professional teacher training courses and programs. Those with
bachelors are encouraged to go for masters, and those who have already bagged
masters degrees are encouraged to register for a doctorate program. The key is to
continually develop yourself and stay in tune with global best practices in terms of
teacher education. It also increases the possibility of higher pay, greater job
flexibility, and easier and less stressful advancement into administrative roles.
Engage In Teaching Practice
Gaining classroom experience is a must for any prospective professional teacher.

Intending teachers must have put in a considerable number of hours in supervised
teaching experience in order to be certified for practice. Student teaching can be
undertaken during the pursuit of their qualifications (Bachelors, Masters, or
Doctorate), or at any other time as part of the training process.
Get Licensed as a Teacher
Those who desire to become professional teachers must be duly licensed. This is
the benchmark for entry into any profession in the world.
Characteristics of a Professional Teacher

While proper education and qualifications are necessary to become a professional
teacher, there are some inherent qualities that immediately set an individual apart as
teacher material.
Whether you are a primary school teacher or you teach in a secondary school or you
are a lecturer in a tertiary institution of learning, you need to possess these qualities
and more. Below are some of the qualities of a good teacher:
1. A career teacher must be organized and have an eye for details;

MODULE
2
2. Have the gift of explaining abstract concepts in ways that simplifies them for
students to understand
3. Have the presence of mind to think on their feet and give intelligent answers
to questions often posed by students in class, and also have contingency
plans for classroom activities or lessons that don’t go according to plan.
4. Be well knowledgeable in their area of expertise in order to be able to answer
any kinds of questions posed by students and also be able to develop
excellent curricula;
5. Have excellent writing and communication skills, as those skills will readily
come in handy when teaching, setting exams and homework, or talking with
either parents or other school system members.
Direction: Write True if the statement tells fact and False if the statement is just an
opinion.
______1. A teacher does not require any license just to be called professional
teacher.
______2. You can be called professional teacher even if you are not a graduate of
any education courses.
______3. Intending teachers must have put in a considerable number of hours in
supervised teaching experience in order to be certified for practice.
______4. Professional teachers must be an expert of their specialized area to meet
the needs of their students.
______5. Professional teachers have a wide variety of responsibilities, some of
which include developing classroom curricula, teaching courses, helping students in
their academic guidance, and proctoring exams.
Congratulations! You are half-way to the completion of this module. To

deepen your understanding about teaching profession, do an advance reading about
the imperative set of ethical and moral principles, multiculturalism, standards and
values the teacher should practice in performing his or her role in the community.

ARTICLE IV. A TEACHER AND THE PROFESSION

ARTICLE V. THE TEACHERS AND THE PROFESSION
FOOD FOR THOUGHT:
I am a teacher. It's how I define myself. A good teacher isn't someone who
gives the answers out to their kids but is understanding of needs and challenges and
gives tools to help other people succeed. That's the way I see myself, so whatever it is
that I will do eventually after politics, it'll have to do a lot with teaching.
~ Justin Trudeau
