Teaching Philosophy Statement

221 Words1 Pages
My personal goal as a future educator in my classroom, is to challenge students to help them achieve success and watch them grow to their full potential. I want to teach students at different levels and see them work together and develop with one another in a way that benefits each individual student. For that to happen, group work is the key to my class being successful and is something that I value, especially with students getting into higher grades. The impact group work has, when students help and learn from other students, can change a person, and also transform the overall atmosphere of the class. Teaching young students is a task that can’t be taken lightly. Teaching is full of challenges, responsibilities, surprises, and frustrations.

Students who are considered English language learners undergo many challenges in their education, and without the necessary support and resources from their educators it can make it hard for them to succeed.

It is also very important for teachers to understand the challenges that these students are facing. Having empathy towards the students allows for the teacher to create better connections and relationships to better help them.

The purpose for students to go through so many stages to reach their goal of becoming a teacher is to make them more informed and experienced about their career. The professional dispositions allow the students to know how to behave professionally, be ethically professional towards their students as well as colleagues, personally develop their skills as a preservice candidate, and successfully go through the all the stages to become a teacher. In my experiences from K-12, I have never considered a teacher to be unprofessional to my peers or myself. A teacher who comes to school dressed accordingly for work is considered professional.

Bryce Williams EDUC 250 Jan. 29th, 2017 When I become a teacher, I find it that it is very beneficial to meet the needs of all of your students, While in a classroom I believe that I must always be willing to adapt to any of my students while making sure that I am doing the best that I possibly can to educate them. We as educators owe it to our students to help them keep learning and growing in order to offer many ways that they can be success. It is a personal feeling of mine to always want to see my students be the best that can be, Urie Bronfenbrenner states "Every child needs at least one adult who is irrationally crazy about him or her."

I believe my students learn best in small groups. It is during small groups that I can monitor, evaluate, and continually adapt my teaching to the needs of the students. I find that having a personal relationship with every student, I can give each one of my students an equal chance for success. By recognizing every student’s potential and having separate, individual goals for each, I can accommodate personal needs and abilities and educate and encourage them to reach their goals and beyond.

Jesus Camp Jesus Camp was a very interesting film. Many of the idiosyncrasies used may seem bizarre to many other religions. As well the film definitely seemed to have some bias. Also they portrayed what these people believe as crazy and brainwashing but underneath lies a well oiled religious machine disguised as a children’s summer camp proactively teaching children they ways of their religion.

As long as I can remember, I’ve always known that I wanted to be a teacher. The years went on and I narrowed it down to teaching young kids.

From a very young age, I was always towards the top of my class and loved almost all my subjects. Quite simply I loved learning

Marva Collins said it best when she wrote, “When someone is taught the joy of learning, it becomes a life-long process that never stops. That is the challenge and joy of teaching. Students need teachers who believe that all children are achievers and who take personally the failure of any one child.” While all teachers should believe every student can succeed, the question that always remains is how does a teacher ensure every student achieve their goals? Teachers implement a variety of techniques that are integrated with the hopes of advancing the educational ambitions of their students.

Philosophy of Education I believe all students can learn on all extents as long as they are willing or wanting to learn. I believe this because learning is a thing that kind of just happens as long as you want to. The only time you really don’t learn is if you are trying not to learn. If you pay attention you will learn, even if you are struggling you are still learning something and you can still learn if you are struggling you just might need to try harder and seek help. To the point of you learn with just living your life and not trying.

Truly caring about people is a blessing and a curse. As cliché as that sounds, it will be the most uplifting, yet harmful trait I will have to conquer during my years of teaching. I believe the teaching world is still struggling to truly define what it means to teach a child. Many teachers are still overlooking students in the classroom. Many teachers are still failing to recognize the potential in each student.

As an educator, I hope to create an environment to help my students reach their full potential through the sharing of ideas and strategies in a respectful classroom. Each student is unique and requires an environment that encourages him or her to learn and succeed. During my years as a mathematics student and tutor, I have found that competition, while encouraging to some extent, is the ultimate downfall of many students’ learning. Students focus on being the first one done and completely overlook the work that they are doing in their race to the finish line. I would like to provide a stress-free environment for my students.

Although the emotion and commitment needed to remain a vibrant, engaged, and caring teacher year after year might dissipate, I will be sustained by recalling all the reasons why I wanted to start teaching. Keeping these reasons fresh in our minds and revisiting them often will help keep us, as a teacher, on track to reach our teaching goals. Some choose to try change the world by highlighting issues, donating money, or by becoming the president, I chose to try make a difference in the world by becoming a teacher and starting them off on the right track when they are young. I realize that teaching is exhausting, never-ending, and hard work. We are reminded of this on a daily basis whether it is by the media or by our professors in class, but

I believe teaching is a continuation of the learning process. As a teacher, I see myself as a student who has passed through the hardest part of acquiring new knowledge and mastered the concepts, and I am ready to pass the knowledge to the students who are going through the process. In this process, my responsibility is to help them get through the difficulties and build their confidence in the subject I am teaching. I am also responsible for helping them connect things in class to the real world.

What lies in the heart of a good teacher? Over a year ago if I had read this question I would not have put much thought into the subject at hand. Now I find that the very basis of my existence pivots on this one idea. Growing up, attending school was thought to be just a necessary step for one to secure a job; not much thought was given to question why school education was as important as it is to me now. The gift of knowledge is a powerful tool, with it only the bounds of your imagination are at cause for one’s limitations.
