Introduction
This module provides views on the different aspects of the philosophical and
moral aspects of becoming a teacher. A teacher's influence on his/her students and
other people with whom he/she works and lives depends a great deal on own
philosophy as a person and as a teacher. A teacher’s philosophy of life and her
philosophy of education serve as “window” to the world and “compass” in the sea of
life. Embedded in ones’ philosophy are principles and values that will determine how
you regard people and how you look at life. They govern and direct your lifestyle,
thoughts, decisions, actions, and your relationship with people and things.
