My Teaching Philosophy in a Nutshell





My teaching philosophy is based off of one simple statement......." I simply want to make a difference in the world."  Making a difference includes many aspects however, I have discovered that teaching is the way I want to influence people for the better and eventually make a difference in the world.  My love for learning has always been strong and continues to grow stronger every day.  I am grateful to have grown up loving school for the endless amount of knowledge that it offers.  I hope I can motivate future students to look at learning the way I do, and understand that knowledge is power! My philosophy of teaching is to enable, enlighten, and encourage.  It is important to me to instill a sense of self worth and potential in every one of the students I will be teaching.  I take pride in my schooling and career goals.  I am very passionate about teaching and the benefits that come with it.  I will not only get the chance to teach and serve others, but I will also be learning right along with my students.  I believe that as a teacher I will be given the opportunity to influence for good the lives of hundreds of children and families.­ In my future classroom I plan to teach my students the relationship between classroom learning and real life learning.  Education is about inspiring one’s mind not filling their head with information.  I will show them how the skills they learn in my classroom can be implemented outside of the classroom.  I will be sure to make every lesson relatable to each student so they can interpret in a way that they can fully understand.  I will strive to help them understand that observing is one of the biggest teaching tools to possess.  I will explain that observing teaches us to look outside the social norm and standard ways of learning.  I hope through implementing my personal philosophy on teaching that my students will learn how to continue educating themselves throughout their lives and work together to make a difference in the world.
