My Teaching Philosophy

Throughout my career as a student and future educator I have developed the

philosophy that I truly believe that everyone is capable of learning no matter what their

background is.

“One child, one teacher, one book, one pen can change the world” - Malala

Yousafzai

Teaching runs through my veins. I come from a huge family of educators and I

knew from when I was a little girl I wanted to follow in my relatives footsteps. I think that

teaching is one of the most rewarding jobs one can have, you create such a large

impact on younger generations and set them on a path for their upcoming years in

education. I cannot wait to have my own classroom and see my students develop and

carry with them the values and ideas I have taught them. This is so inspiring to me, like

watching a caterpillar turn into a butterfly.

“Teachers affect eternity; no one can tell where their influence stops” - Henry

Brooks Adams

I want to be a role model for all of my students as well as someone they can

come and talk to whenever they need, whether it's just a listening ear or assistance on a

certain task. Teachers must be willing and accepting to change and accommodation for

their students. Teachers must also be effective communicators to deliver all the

important information to their students.However I believe that one of the most important

skills a teacher must have is to continue learning themselves, taking new advice from

educators before them and building off that.

 “The best education is not given to students; it is drawn out of them.”- Gerald

Belcher

I have always been drawn to children of the younger ages, which is why I want to

be an early elementary school teacher. I preferably want to teach kindergarten or

second grade however will of course be thrilled to work in any classroom. The

atmosphere of the classroom is extremely important, I want to ensure that it is inviting

and provides for every student. I will have all materials easily accessible for everyone

and keep the room organized and clean at all times. I want to have brightly colored

walls showcasing students' work and filled with helpful posters such as grammar rules

or a multiplication chart.

As an educator my main goal is to assist my students and help them see their full

potential. I am still learning and I always will be, I am sure that I will develop more

throughout my career and my stance may change but I am excited for the future and

getting to influence future generations.
