Chapter: Reflecting on Third Year Principles

DOI: 10.1558/equinox.31251

Blurb:

This chapter outlines and discusses the topics related to principles that the novice ESL teacher reflected on during his third year. When teachers were encouraged to reflect on principles they become more aware of their assumptions, values and beliefs about teaching and learning, and as a result they became better able to make re-evaluations, modifications or complete changes to these. This chapter will outline the teacher’s reflections on these topics in detail especially the teacher’s beliefs during his third year.
