I was a student who has a goal to become a teacher. Among the lessons that I can from my small step to senior high school, I remember the most is like math. Because the integration between ideals and things that I like, then I strengthen myself, stick my ideals and desires to become a teacher of mathematics. But I do not want to become a mathematics teacher who always, but I must be a mathematics teacher who was amazing. Namely teachers who are global, a noble personality, mathematic experts in the field, has an ability that is capable of a global challenge (especially English). So I became a teacher not only has the ability of local, but global conception of teachers who are not override local capability. So that I can be inspiring teacher. Therefore, I entered college that has facilities such case, which later will be easier for me reach my dream of most people agree that it is glorious. So mathematic education is the right path to achieve that dream.
Learning science in mathematics and science education, with the convenience is a must if you want to become a good mathematics teacher. But that is not enough, there must be things that I have to dominating study and learn the English language. I have to learn the English language lessons for mathematic education.
A competence that I must be have of English for mathematic education are as follows:
1. I must have a clean soul. A good lesson and pure will not be embedded in a dirty soul.
2. I must have a spirit of abstinence give up and curiosity that high.
3. I must have the basic ability of the English language is adequate. This is quite important to measure the ability of basic English that I have so I know where I will start. In this case, the TOEFL can be a reference to find out how far the ability to speak English that I have.
4. I have to take a lot of vocabulary
5. I must have the courage to utter the English language use in daily life. This is important, so I used to use in the English language. Thus, I will be easy to use in teaching English.
6. I must be able to solve math problems by using the English language.
7. I need to know the basic philosophy of mathematic education.
8. I must have the ability to develop capabilities that are in me and I should be able to develop mathematics in the scientific, as well as I should be able to develop my ability in teaching mathematics. This can be a sentence in the so-called innovation of mathematic education. This includes contextual mathematic, Proofing a formula, etc.
Below is a sample math problem solved by using the English language:
HOW TO DETERMINE THE ABC FORMULA
To determine the ABC formula, we have had the common square equation, that is a times x to the power of 2 plus b times x plus c equals 0. Afterwards the equation is we alter in the form of perfect square equation, coefficient of x to the power of 2 turned into 1, so, the equation become x to the power of 2 plus open bracket b over a close bracket times x plus open bracket c over a close bracket equals 0. Than, left internode and joint right added with open square bracket b over open bracket 2 times a close bracket close square bracket to the power of 2, so, the equation become x to the power of 2 plus open bracket b over a close bracket times x plus open square bracket b over open bracket 2 times a close bracket close square bracket to the power of 2 plus open bracket c over a close bracket equals open square bracket b over open bracket 2 times a close bracket close square bracket to the power of 2. Than, alter x to the power of 2 plus open bracket b over a close bracket times x plus open square bracket b over open bracket 2 times a close bracket close square bracket to the power of 2 become open square bracket x plus open bracket b over 2 times a in bracket close bracket close square bracket to the power of 2, and move the internode c over a, so, the equation become open square bracket x plus open bracket b over 2 times a in bracket close bracket close square bracket to the power of 2 equals b to the power of 2 in bracket over 4 times open bracket a to the power of 2 close bracket plus c over a. than alter b to the power of 2 in bracket over 4 times open bracket a to the power of 2 close bracket plus c over a become open bracket b to the power of 2 minus 4 times a times c close bracket over open bracket 4 times open bracket a to the power of 2 close bracket. Than alter the mentioned equation become x plus open bracket b over 2 times a in bracket close bracket equals plus minus square root of open bracket b to the power of 2 minus 4 times a times c close bracket over 4 times a to the power of 2 close bracket. The last, move b over open bracket 2 times a close bracket to joint right, the equation become x equals negative b over 2 times a plus minus 1 over 2 times a times square root of open bracket b to the power of 2 minus 4 times a times c close bracket, so, x equals negative b plus minus square root of open bracket b to the power of 2 minus 4 times a times c close bracket over 2 times a.
When all have been met and traveled well, insya Allah, I can be inspiring teacher of mathematic education. I can be a teacher who has insight and has a global capability. Of course it can be achieved with patience, perseverance, prayer, and tawakal.
