School setting
St. Joseph's Fourth School is a vibrant institution where one can truly feel the passion that resides in the hearts of every teacher. This passion has greatly influenced my own determination to become a teacher. The school's educational mission and vision are based on a "people-oriented" philosophy, acknowledging that every individual is uniquely created by God. Understanding the differences among students and helping them discover, develop, and refine their potential is the true educational mission of St. Joseph's.
Education begins with understanding, respecting, and appreciating others. By respecting students, we affirm their self-worth and recognize their potential for success. The school's faith-based culture is evident everywhere; students pray in the morning and before meals.
The school consists of three levels, K1 to K3, with two classes per level, each accommodating approximately 30 students. Every class is staffed with two teachers and one assistant. As an English-medium school, all subjects are taught in English except for Chinese and Religious Studies, which are conducted in Mandarin. Students spend most of their time engaging in lessons with both their peers and teachers, and they genuinely enjoy the learning experience.
The school's facilities are modern and well-equipped. It primarily serves families from affluent and middle-class backgrounds while embracing diversity by offering additional support for students with special needs. These students are integrated into regular classrooms, where they appear to blend in well, forming friendships and engaging positively with their classmates.

Class Profile
In the K2A class, there are 30 students, including 12 boys and 15 girls. Each student is unique and has their own personality. Some students excel in English communication, while others demonstrate strong leadership skills.
The students in this class have a great passion for artistic creation. During free-choice activity time, they always look forward to playing in the art corner. They also love listening to stories, often asking me to tell them stories during break time.
In my teaching, I incorporate diverse teaching methods and integrate games into lessons to enhance learning engagement. One of the most unforgettable teaching experiences for me was when I used drama as a teaching method. I was deeply moved to see how engaged the students were. Through dramatic performances, they not only became fully immersed in the lesson but also developed a deeper understanding of the subject matter. This experience also helped me discover my strength in teaching through drama.
