S2 Ep. 5: A Reflection of a Filipino Immigrant Teacher with Melojeane Carillo Zawilinski
Manage episode 325526391 series 2946222
Teaching in the United States presents unique challenges to Asian immigrant educators. These challenges find reverberation in the classroom, where Asian culture tends to hold teachers in much higher regard and are well respected than in other parts of the world.
However, not only do immigrant teachers have to adapt to a new culture but also to regulations that govern a country's education system. In today's episode, we talked with Mrs. Zawilinski about the challenges foreign-born teachers like her may face when serving in classrooms across the United States.
She shares:
- her childhood and what started her journey as a teacher in the Philippines;
- her experience in completing the process of becoming a licensed Language Arts and English teacher in the United States;
- her teaching methods and approaches based upon the different values and cultures of the students;
- her knowledge and advice for both students and aspiring teachers in the Philippines.
About our guest:
- Masters' Degree, Masters of Arts in Teaching
- Lecturer at Central Michigan University
- (GOA) Global Outreach Ambassador - University of Michigan
- 10 years English Instructor at Saginaw Valley State University - local and international students
- Former English Teacher/ESL Directorate at Taiwan Adventist International School
- Former Teacher Immaculate Heart of Mary College, Philippines
Memorable quote from the guest:
“With all the adjustments, all the combination of my experiences & skills that I have developed through the different exposures and different ages—I have taught pre-school to university and even master's students. Yung gamut ng range ng mga age level, that really fortified or forged my profession in teaching.”
