THE CHALLENGS OF PRACTICUM

OVERAL IMPRESSION
For me, overall impression for the SEA-TEACHER project is very good to develop again. Given the importance of education for the nation's important generation, therefore this activity hopes that it will continue until the next batch. Because through this activity, I was able to learn and practice directly how to become a good teacher, improve my English skills, and increase knowledge about cultural differences in Southeast Asia and expand networks with new friends from neighboring countries.
