Sean Hembrick Pre- Philosophy Statement When thinking about my personal and professional philosophies of education I have to think of the various students I have worked with in the past. Each of my students was unique. It was my job to provide them with a secure, caring, and stimulating atmosphere in which they could grow and mature emotionally, intellectually, physically, and socially. While working with my students it was my desire to help them meet their fullest potential in achieving their dreams while supporting them. For me, education is about growth. Not only the growth in one’s mind but the growth in one’s overall individuality. Abraham Lincoln once said, “Upon the subject of education…I can only say that I view it as the most important subject which we as a people can be engaged in.” I could not agree more with this statement.

As a first-generation student I had to push myself to learn how to deal with time management, planning, and navigating through my college career. Working with my students I have developed a sentimental yet powerful sense of pride about education. I know that working with students is a task that is not to be taken lightly. It is full of challenges, frustrations, and responsibilities. However, from my professional standpoint, it is an important task that is also full of excitement, wonder, and joy. I strongly believe in the value of education and that no student should be denied from

The decision to go to war is not a decision that is taken lightly. In The Things They Carried, Tim O’Brien faces cultural, social and political factors that end up leading him to forgo his plan to dodge the draft, and to report as instructed, a mere yards away from his destination of Canada (57). In Leslie Marmon Silko’s Ceremony, Rocky and Tayo, two young Native American men, experience cultural, social and political factors that draw them into the Army, fighting the Second World War for a country that considers them less than human. The stories of these characters are not unique, they are stories that are representative of the stories of young American men at the time, who faced cultural, social, and political factors during both conflicts.

Education will determine how successful you are in the future, and will lead you to find joy and happiness with all of the things you can accomplish. Also education should be taught while the children is young and has a fresh mind. Otherwise, it’ll be too late and later in life they will regret not learning or trying to work their hardest. That’s why we should really be trying to bring out every child’s dream and potential to be the best person they can be. The main goal of education is like teaching a man how to fish instead of just giving him the fish.

I firmly believe that regardless of the student’s cultural, beliefs, or values, they are all entitled to a proper education. It is important for me to understand each students’ beliefs by developing cultural awareness in myself. This will allow me to understand the students regardless of their background and provide them with quality services. In addition, I believe that bringing more awareness to those first-year generations by working in collaboration with their families will make a difference in the student’s post-secondary years regardless if college, vocational, Military, or workforce is a choice of path. As I stated earlier, all students have the ability to learn when they have the
