This reflection has allowed me to stop from everyday life, which consumes us with the myopia of the present, to self-reflect on my role as a teacher. I had never asked myself if I was an innovative educator with so many things to learn in my first year of teaching, and to my surprise, I discovered that I have a little bit of a genius inside. I am a Kindergarten teacher with a particular degree in training children, where play, creativity, and authenticity play a determining role. Hence, I am constantly seeking to improve my learning environment based on the changing needs of students and advances in the educational field. I explore innovative evaluation methods such as projects, contests, and competitions where creativity would be the most awarded element. Despite their young age, I encourage them to take risks and set high goals.
Communication is one of the elements that make us Rational Beings. Helps build relationships, teamwork, and trust. Develops a knowledge base, which helps in making better decisions in life. Empathetic communication contributes to an emotional and favorable climate. However, the lack of clarity or insufficiency in the transmission of information constitutes a significant error. When information is not transmitted clearly and completely, people can interpret it differently, generating confusion and misinterpretations due to erroneous or incomplete decisions. This makes it an essential error since it negatively affects understanding, decision-making, interpersonal relationships, efficiency, effectiveness, and achieving objectives in various contexts, whether in the professional, personal, or academic field.
Conversely, consistency in communication would be a determining factor since it ensures that the information is updated, reduces misunderstandings by continuously providing information, and avoids knowledge gaps. In summary, constant communication is essential for effective operation in various contexts since it leads to the overall success of relationships and objectives.
"Feeling heard and understood is one of people's greatest needs."
