JOURNAL ON LEARNER-CENTERED PHILOSOPHY

First Quarter
In the learner-centered teaching philosophy I follow, students are viewed as active
participants in their education rather than passive recipients of knowledge. I believe in
creating a student-centered environment where learners' interests, needs, and abilities
are taken into consideration when designing lessons and activities. By engaging students
in meaningful discussions, collaborative projects, and hands-on experiences, they
become motivated to explore and deepen their understanding of the subject matter. I also
encourage open communication and feedback, fostering a supportive learning community
where students feel empowered to share their thoughts and ideas.

Second Quarter
Cultural responsiveness is an integral part of my learner-centered teaching
philosophy. I recognize the diversity within my classroom and the impact of culture on
students' learning experiences. By incorporating culturally relevant materials, diverse
perspectives, and inclusive teaching practices, I aim to create a learning environment
where all students feel represented and valued. Through discussions about different
cultures and worldviews, students develop empathy and understanding, promoting a
sense of unity and appreciation for the richness of human experiences.

JOURNAL ON LEARNER-CENTERED PHILOSOPHY

Third Quarter
A key aspect of my learner-centered teaching philosophy is promoting
metacognition and self-regulated learning. I encourage students to reflect on their
learning processes, set goals, and monitor their progress. By teaching them how to ask
questions, make connections, and apply their knowledge, students become more
autonomous and confident learners. I also provide opportunities for peer feedback and
self-assessment, allowing students to develop a deeper understanding of their strengths
and areas for improvement. Through metacognitive strategies, learners develop lifelong
skills that extend beyond the classroom.
