Teaching Reflections: Unpacking Insights and Personal Growth from My Educational Portfolio
​
As a learner and lecturer, I possess certain strengths, such as adaptability and continuous improvement. I am flexible in adapting my teaching strategies to incorporate different learning theories, which is a testimony to my commitment to continuous improvement. Engaging in reflective practice is another key strength that has helped me critically evaluate my teaching methods and student responses. My focus on creating an inclusive and engaging learning environment also showcases my strong commitment to student-centred education.
However, there are still areas that need improvement. For instance, I need to explore further and utilise digital tools to enhance learning experiences, especially in online and blended settings. I also must find the optimal balance between learning theories to suit diverse classroom dynamics. Additionally, I aim to further my engagement with current educational research to stay abreast of emerging trends and innovative teaching methodologies.
In summary, this portfolio journey has been a multifaceted learning experience, illuminating my pedagogical approach's strengths and areas for growth. It reinforces my belief in the power of reflective teaching and the continuous pursuit of excellence in higher education. As I move forward, I am invigorated to apply these insights and continue evolving as an educator, ever committed to enriching my students' learning journey.
