Philosophy Of Education

Education is the single most powerful tool anyone can ever own. Education can take you from the dirtiest, filthiest slum, to the top of the world if the person is willing to work hard enough. It is essential that we offer it to all people, it could mean the difference between a life of crime and a life long learner. We are a people that just try to survive the best we can, and we want a good life. Sometimes, children fall between the cracks, they fall behind, feel like failures and turn to a more brutal form of survival, which usually is them against the world. We learn that in this life yourself is the only one you can depend on to do for you what needs to be done. However, I believe that the school environment should be different. We need to focus on building a community of caring individuals that can call on anyone else for help and understanding. I believe education should be free to all. There are so many other countries that make a free education system through college work for them. They also offer other free alternatives to college if that individual feels that they just aren’t suited for college. Those countries are currently surpassing the U.S. in education standa

We need to model what we are teaching. We need to share with them what seminars we went to, so that we are current on content knowledge. Reaching out and being able to be a partner with parents is half the battle. Helping the lower functioning parents help themselves and their kids. How about being a caring and understanding adult to those parents who have never had that before? How about going beyond lesson plans and rubrics, and realizing that in this profession you’re job doesn’t end when the last bell rings?

Schools must be a money making business in the U.S. to every one but the actual teachers teaching it, because we have one of the most backward school systems that I have ever seen. We are placing more and more emphasis on learning at an earlier age, and less and less on the essential play that they need to learn. Play is a vital part of developing social skills as well as skills that will develop l
