As with any successful profession, there must be a strong foundation on which to build upon. This foundation in the field of education is your personal philosophy of education. Successful teaching and learning should encompass the diversity of the student backgrounds and the ability levels of all students involved. This must be done without losing sight of the intended goals. My beliefs on teaching and learning are:

• I believe every child deserves to receive an education

• I believe a teacher should make learning fun for his/her students

• I believe in staying involved with professional development so we can continuously learn new things

• I believe in striving to have positive relationships with students

• I believe the desire to learn must be nurtured by the teacher if it is not already present

There are times when we encounter students that require a little more effort than others. When we are faced with this type of situation teacher must reflect on the true meaning of teaching. This will enable the teacher to embrace the difference in the learning styles of students and allow the teacher to develop innovative strategies for reaching such a divers

In every aspect of our lives, everyone should have a personal philosophy. The philosophy I live by is to be dedicated to the total development of each individual student as well as myself. I believe education should be balanced so that each student can develop the mental, intellectual, and social needs that are a must in today’s society. As teachers we should help each student reach an ultimate goal of developing his or her greatest potential. I also believe that everyone should work together for this common goal. This includes teachers, students, administration, and parents.

The personal goal that I have for myself is to be the best teacher that I can be. I want my students to love my class. I want to be able to guide my students so they can become well-adjusted, successful members of our society. My philosophy of education is derived from my personal philosophy. I want to influence the world in a positive way. Whatever resources I have found must be shared with others. I must do all that I can to ensure that every person I encounter is forever changed by my presence. I have to exceed the norm and surpass the expected to make a real difference in my life as well as the life of others.
