PSE G11 Reflection
Challenges from Grade 11:
- New subjects
- New people
- New learning system
- New activities and services
- New hobbies 😀
How did I tackle challenges successfully:
Subject: The most of the subjects I chose for IB were new to me, but they are what I’m interested in, so it made things easier. Through firsthand experience, I can conclude that people do learn better and faster when they are interested in something.
What were out of my control:
Not much. The COVID-19 circuit breaker tested my self-discipline.
What we learned in PSE is relevant:
The session of “I BE” led us to know more about ourselves and taught us to be confident. This session is helpful because with a better understanding of myself, I knew what was my weakness and what should I do to improve. The session of “relationship” helps me with the challenge “New people”, because it demonstrated the importance of healthy relationship.
Challenges might appear in Grade 12:
- Pressure from academic
- Heavy schoolwork
- Pressure from parents
- others
What can I do to overcome?
- Read some books, play some games, have some fun… try my best to relax.
- I can do a better time management in face of heavy schoolwork.
- Talk to the parents/friends.
- Others
What can PSE help:
We learned about the way of managing our time during PSE lesson, and we also learned about how to communicate with adults or people who can offer help.
Make a plan:
- Pay attention to each lesson and schoolwork.
- Sleep: at least 7 hours each day.
- Ask for help if necessary.
- Try my best.
