SALIHAH LIYANA

I have graduated with Bachelor of Science with Education (Hons.) major in Biology from University Putra Malaysia (UPM). My formal education and practical experience have adequately prepared me with the skills and knowledge required for this position. I participated in extra-curricular activities during my campus life, which has strengthened my communication and interpersonal skills. In addition to these skills, I also possess leadership qualities as I have been selected as secretary and a passion for work in this field. Moreover, through my degree year as I join many programs which allows me to experience as a facilitator for primary school students and also secondary school students. The impact from this programs had improved my soft skills and critical thinking skills In addition, I have experience in teaching four public schools as a practical teacher and substituted teacher. Teaching is one of my passion and I am willing to learn new things to improve myself. Before I teach students, I will make sure that I have a lesson plan which I prepared at least a day before. I will make sure each of the objectives in a lesson plan will achieve same as the learning outcome. In addition, I like to use 21st Century Learning in order to engage the students in lessons. This method has been proved as it attracts students' attention and increases their passion for learning the topic so that they can understand the content of the subject more clearly. Hence, students will not feel bored or sleepy during lesson sessions carried out. In addition, the use of technology can be other tools to teach students so that students also can learn how to study by using technologies or without technologies. During my practical days, I have taught Biology and Science subjects in SMK Putrajaya Presint 5(1) for 3 months. I learned to organize time and manage curriculum activities with students. At the same time, I learned to prepare 21st Century Learning in order to make the learning sessions more fun and enjoyable. I also know how to approach each student although their have different personalities. After I graduated, I have been offered to be a substituted teacher in SMK Ulu Kinta, Ipoh Perak for almost 3 months. I have been given task to teach Physics and Mathematics subjects.
