Reflection: My Experience Of Teaching And Learning

Learning is an ongoing process through which we can expand and acquire new knowledge. On the other side, teaching should be effective to ensure that learner must acquire new knowledge.

My first teaching experience was with my nephew. He was struggling to write lowercase alphabet letters, then I planned to teach him. I decided to sit in a separate room where he can study with full concentration. The room was comfortable and noise-free. There were two chairs and one table.
