Master of Teaching
PROFESSIONALISM
Kingeon conducted himself in a professional manner with both students and faculty throughout his time at our
school. He showed great flexibility and adaptability, quickly adjusting to changing schedules and circumstances,
often with little notice.
He was always willing to lend his expertise in math to both students and teachers in a variety of settings. The
work that he produced was both thorough and of the highest quality. He had a positive attitude and faced
challenges with assurance and calm.
During his time at our school he had ample opportunity to critically reflect on the practice of teaching – both
receiving feedback and offering suggestions for improvement.
CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT
Kingeon established a good rapport and connection with the students by memorizing their names on the very
first day. Being able to address students by name allowed him to quickly deal with minor disruptions during
lessons.
His competence with the material and the structuring of his lessons established a level of trust that reinforced a
productive learning environment. His calm demeanor and humour also helped to establish a safe and accepting
space.
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS
It has been great having someone like Kingeon with us at the school. His passion for math and his willingness to
tackle any problem without hesitation was a breath of fresh air for both other math teachers and students. The
work that he has done in response to our inquiries are masterpieces of insight and understanding.
He has a sharp and analytical mind which has helped him in both the classroom and in his critical reflection of his
own practice.
As he hones his practice and develops his teaching style, I would encourage Kingeon to continue to take risks,
be creative and grow as a learner. Even though his brief time with us is over, I know we will continue our
collaboration into the future, especially if there are good problems to be solved!
