In my Bachelor's thesis, I reflect on how shy and timid students would be seen in the classroom. By visibility, I mean that the teacher needs the ability to see and take note of every student exactly as he or she is. Feeling that you are seen, heard and respected is very important and every person needs it, so is every student too. In my Bachelor's thesis, I look at the growth and development of a child and how different personalities and temperaments influence a child's behavior in the school world. I also look at the teacher and what a good teacher is and what it takes to be a good teacher. No one is quite the same as the other, everyone has a unique personality and temperament, each person is unique. This is why I wanted to find out how different classroom situations the students feel. I did an illustrative study on the subject in the spring of 2019 at Rovaniemi Training School. I developed a short questionnaire for students about shyness and soreness. The survey had three questions and each student answered the questionnaire independently. The final question in the study turns out to be interesting because most students sometimes feel that they would like to communicate with the teacher other than the whole class hears. The study supports the source literature as well as my idea that the teacher has a responsibility and an obligation to be able to give each student a sense of being seen. It is not necessarily so simple as there is usually only one teacher and many students in the classroom. Therefore, the purpose of my research is to make the first step and one suggestion to see the shy and sensitive in the classroom situation. My goal is to continue to explore the topic and find new ways to help teachers.
