Reviews of BSEd in Mathematics graduates:

J. B.
◈ Studied BSEd in Mathematics
◈ At Mindanao State University - Iligan Institute of Technology
◈ Graduated 2012

list bulletWhy did I choose BSEd in Mathematics: I chose to study this particular course because of my dream of becoming a teacher. Since my performance in the field of maths is quite good I chose mathematics as my field of specialization for teaching.

list bulletAbout my college education: The difficulty I experienced while taking this course was boosting my self-confidence because this course really needs a lot of self-confidence in order to deliver my teaching smoothly and efficiently. I had stage frights, I'am a bit of a shy type one, but as time goes by my self-confidence improved gradually until I had excellent performances at practice teachings. As I had a look-back of my self before I can really see the improvement within me. With the help of my classmates/batch mates, my studying in this course became a bit more lighter and enjoyable. The only secret to success in this course is determination, hard work and love the course you are taking then everything will follow smoothly to success :)

list bulletMy current job: I applied in a college to teach and was given immediately a consideration and started teaching days after. But after a semester in teaching I decided to stop and continue to study another course because I was offered a free support in education in Engineering at that time, at the same university by my aunt and I took that opportunity. Now I'am currently not employed, I'am currently taking up the course offered for me, Computer Engineering. While studying at my new course I'am having a "side job" tutorial sessions in my free time.

list bulletAm I using what I learned in college: Yes. The various teaching strategies learned in college were very effective and very applicable.

list bulletHow long did it take to find a job: I've got my first job few months after I graduated.

list bulletDo I recommend studying BSEd in Mathematics: Yes. In terms of employment opportunities, the Department of Education now are hiring fresh teachers due to the implementation of K-12 program in the Philippines.

In terms of salary, in public offices, the salary is sufficient. Now, there was a movement of increasing the salary of public teachers by an additional of 10,000 pesos.

list bulletAdvice to people who are thinking of studying this course: Before taking this course first ask yourself this question:

Do you really want to teach? (in any circumstances and difficulties)
The teaching course may never be easy like you imagine. There are circumstances where you have to ride motorcycles in muddy roads just to go to school everyday like in remote areas. Walk 5-8 kilometers a day to school or having a violent student in your class. Are you ready to handle this kind of situations?

These are, most probably, not taught in a university you will be in. And it will be all up to YOU how to handle these kind of situations.
