CAS
For CAS this quarter some boys and I taught children from a national school in Medan. That was actually the task for CAS, we were supposed to teach fifth graders from SD Horsik in Medan. My group members consist of Raghav, Matthew and Hesky. What we decided to teach them was english. We decided to teach them basic nouns, verbs and adjectives. The words were shown through picture cards which I have made. So in Medan, there was a change of plans. Turns out that day there was a local governor election which was held at the school. Therefore we only had 30 minutes to teach the fifth graders. But we were able to fit everything within the given time and in the end the CAS was a success.
After completing the CAS activity which means after teaching them, I actually felt quite good. In the begining I thought teaching the children would be boring and annoying. Well it was actually quite annoying because I am not too font of teaching, however after it finished I felt good. I felt quite proud that I was able to complete it and because I did a good deed. From completing this CAS activity I have learned a new value which is teaching. I never liked teaching and I still don’t like it, but I have experienced what it feels like. Especially teaching people lower than you, it is a huge challenge but what matters is actually the result. After teaching them it feels good, like you accomplish something amazing. This CAS basically have taught me something new. It teaches me how to be patient, how to be creative and definitely modesty because we were teaching fifth graders from national school.
The whole CAS project this time was a big experience. This definitely benefits me and my group members because first of all it raises our awareness towards the environment. It shows us that there are people who live like that and they’re knowledge isn’t so superior. I mean the whole fifth grade only consist 7 students, and I thought our class had low amount of students. In conclusion though, I am glad to be able to teach those kids because now I feel that I have helped them somehow. That I have given them some knowledge. Also now I hope I will not degrade lower people too much because teaching them have taught us all about modesty.
