Teaching Philosophy Statement

If you plan on being a teacher when you grow up there are a couple of requirements to do so. If you can’t do your job well, your student won’t be ready for the next year, and if your students aren't ready for the next year the teacher has done a poor job. You need to be educational for the most part. Here are some more ways of what consists a good teacher. Most people think that just by being smart you can be a teacher, but after reading this you won’t think that being a teacher is that easy anymore.

Fun educational games are a great way to intrigue students and make learning enjoyable. Many students are tired of the same old lessons that they are taught on a white board. Just the word “games” makes the student more open to learning

Students learn in many different ways. Some need to visually see the material; others need to hear it. Finally some students need to manually work with the concept. Therefore it is essential that teachers support students in a variety of ways to reach the full potential. Many students have trouble grasping a lesson the first time it is taught. Students often need reinforcement so that they can fully make sense of a lesson. Working individually with a student who is struggling is a very good way to help them understand what they are being taught. By working alone with the teacher, it helps make the student more comfortable with asking the teacher any question. Not only that, but all the focus goes right on the student. When working with a whole class, it is difficult to do that. Working with students personally can take place wherever works for both the student and the teacher. For example, in the classroom, in study hall, and even after school hours. Adding to that is that If students are not so confident about their work or for me I want to give my best work in, so I ask the teacher to look over my small sentences along with my brief paragraphs So that she/he can help me revise my work and tell me if I need to change something. One more example of a good teacher assisting students when needed is that the teacher must have something like an acronym for students to remember ways to solve this

Without the teacher being approachable the kids wouldn’t feel that comfortable with them learning there. That’s why there not only a teacher to you but there also like a friend to you. Basicly if the teacher has a good relationship with the student they dont have to feel like there not so much at school but they will still act like they're in school, or at least they should. Thats where a good teacher must be strict but nice. If the teacher was just a plain old strict teacher, the kids would feel like there in the military and she/hes a sargent and they would be all scared. But if you're too nice It could all just fly out of your hands. The kids would think that they could do whatever they want and you won't yell at them. Maybe if there even to crazy some might just run out the door, i'm not to sure about that one but you never know. That's why you have to play it safe and right and stay nice and strict. But let’s say the sanario is, you're a student. A kid in the hallway shoves you and calls you names and walks away. But this is not the only place you’ve seen this person do this. Let’s say it happened to a fair amount of people., but you know that the reason that he shoved you out of the originals is because today you sat in his seat at lunch which caused him to sit in another seat. But if you tell the teacher all these negatives pop up because you're not sure who's wrong now because of the
