Quotes from peer teacher 8

Interview 1

(Master 1, Semester 2)

"At the beginning I was not really planning on becoming a peer teacher, but at the start of this year I received an email that peer teachers were still needed for first aid and CPR. So I sent in my application at the last-minute."

Interview 2

(Master 2, Semester 3)

"I actually think that teaching is a role that maybe is not really for me, (…) I make things a bit too complex, I think. (…)"

"I saw some very well-structured explanations (from other peer teachers) (…), especially last year. So, when I had the opportunity to give an explanation at the start of a practice session, I learned a lot from it. (…) I focused on having a clear structure, repeating things, and summarizing everything at the end. This helps to ensure that the students remember the information."

"Yes, I don't think that I will ever really have the talent or the intrinsic capacity to be a teacher. However, through my experience with information transfer now (…), I feel that I have developed some competence in that area now.”
