Dispositions Reflection:
The two dispositional areas I feel very comfortable in are Professional Behaviors and Tact and Judgement. I feel comfortable in Professional behaviors because it's something I have grown in and been consistent about. It's something I used to really struggle with and now feel very confident in especially when it comes to promptness and attendance. I now take a lot of pride in excelling in these areas and as a result practice them consistently. Tact and judgement are something that have always come more naturally to me, something embedded in my moral conduct and values that were instilled in me when I was young. I am empathetic and have a good intuition which allows me to respond professionally and tactfully to many situations. I have always considered myself to be someone with an open mind and think that putting myself in others shoes is key to success in all types of relationships. The dispositional area I would like to focus on in the future is cultural responsiveness. While I feel I show sensitivity and understanding of cultural responsiveness I think it's something I will need to refine overtime as our society is rapidly changing on what is politically correct or not. These dispositions support my professional goals by serving as a reminder of what my strengths are and to use them as well as being diligent in improving where needed. The dispositions are areas one can typically always work towards improving in. By embedding them into my practice everyday I can attain all of the goals a teacher desires to accomplish.
