Knowing where one?s own personal and professional spheres meet a learning community can be a significant self-discovery process. This author attempts to show, through various self-reflections of himself and in interactions with other people, places and events, how developing an understanding of both these areas can lead to a greater sense of awareness via reflective practice and hence purpose in future cultural knowing and understanding, as well as contributing to a stronger improvement in the author?s personal and professional relationships and subsequent classroom practices. The author ends with some final thoughts and practical suggestions for enhancing one"s reflective practices.
