Teaching Philosophy Statement

1076 Words5 Pages

Children are the future of society yet they are societies last priority. So much, that our education system is failing, not even giving some the opportunity to be successful. I could say that I have always wanted to be a teacher. Or tell stories of how my stuffed animals were all lined up ready to learn. However, none of that is significant right now. The reason for me becoming a teacher is because I want to see change and to see it you have to be it. I inspire to inspire people to be the best person they can be everyday and that their best is enough. To save the ones who do not feel good enough about themselves and act out in rage or keep it all bottled in with sadness. TO help them see that school is a safe place that you can love learning …show more content…

Too many kids dislike learning. To as the question “What For?”, the answers are an infinite amount, but the leading one is to make a difference.

Kids are in need of help; academically, socially, and mentally. They are losing the feeling of safety. They are in danger and it no longer stops within their home. At school, children are being bullied starting at the age of five. There are so many preventions for bullying, steps that are no longer taken at school. Children are taught to be “independent problem solvers” so they are expected to fix most conflict on their own. It makes limited sense for that to be our solution when as educators we are suppose to be shaping them with strong morals and teaching them right from wrong. They are being bullied enough that they start becoming anxious, depressed, even committing …show more content…

Adults are nurtured and loved while children’s hearts are destroyed. Adults are taught right from wrong while children are taught no morals or values. Our society is backwards and that is the complication. When are we going to see that it is easier to teach children how to be strong and courageous adults than it is to fix adults from their own brokenness. Our education system is more about meeting state standards than it is actually teaching kids. I am becoming a teacher for the kids who have been told they are not smart enough. For the kids who have been told to not dream big because they were not talented enough to succeed. I am going to show those kids that they can do anything if they put their mind to it. I am doing it for the kids who have been told to not dream big and that they are nothing extraordinary. In fifty years, on my death bed, I want to say that because of me there is at least one adult out there who thought they were nothing and I made them see that they could be anything. To know I inspired children to be different will make me not regret a moment getting a college degree or spending my life in a

In the essay, “America Skips School”, Benjamin R. Barber states how he thinks education is not of great importance in America, and he gives advice on how to fix educational issues. He describes how Americans lack simple literacy skills, and says Americans do not truly value educating future generations. Barber says that the blame gets put upon the teachers for not teaching children the proper material, and often times the children themselves get blamed for not carrying the responsibility of the future properly. But Barber himself believes the true blame is children are mimicking society’s actions, and ignoring what they are taught in school. He says children don’t take education seriously because society shows them they can advance and become

I enjoy stories of children standing up to adults who think they can’t do anything. I have worked with children in many of my jobs, and I am always surprised at how intelligent they can be. Most children have this innate urge to learn and figure out the world around them. This is why a school's responsibility should be to provide unbiased and informative education to children, so they may become informed consumers of information and make their own judgments.

Barber researched this idea and concluded that “Our kids spend 900 hours a year in school and from 1,200 to 1,800 hours a year in front of the television set. From which are they likely to learn?” (Barber, 2014, p. 3.). Children do not see education as important, otherwise, they would focus more of their time working towards achieving higher goals in educating instead of passing with the bare minimum. Instead, students fill their minds with views and values of the modern world—which limits students to extremely narrow thought processes.

The reason children’s interests in education have plummeted are because of the parents. Barber explains, “And parents will have to be drawn in not just because they have rights or because they are politically potent but because they have responsibilities and their children are unlikely to learn without parental engagement.” (Barber, 2014 p. 217) Parents need to engage with their children. Nowadays kids do their own things, and parents do not care or know about their children’s life.

Some people think that education is the strong suit of our society, but if youth are our future let them grow up in a flowing community and make their community fun.

I've learned in my life that even when all the odds are stacked against you, it’s important to keep going and be the change you want to see in the world. In my life, I have juggled college courses,, part-time jobs, and volunteer work. I teach for the Little Medical School, located in San Jose, where I have the opportunity to introduce anatomy and physiology concepts to young children as part of encouraging their excitement for and learning biology.

The idea that ‘with great powers comes great responsibility’ (Benjamin Parker) is widely accepted. Indeed, in “A Wizard of Earthsea,” Ursula Le Guin develops this very idea by detailing the evolution of the progressive maturation of an enthusiastic young wizard, Ged, who in extreme hubris, recklessly unleashes a terrible evil, and is forced to deal with the harsh consequences of it by not only confronting his fears but also learning the lessons of maturity, self-mastery, and balance. Accordingly, in “A Wizard of Earthsea” Le Guin reveals that the trials and tribulations of a personal quest are essential to character development, through the analysis of Ged’s evolving recklessness, self-control and maturation. Initially, Le Guin’s analysis

Growing up in a house with a mom who is an educator showed me the importance of education and spreading the love I have for teaching others and helping them grow as a learner. I grew up surrounded by classrooms from a young age. I would hang out in my mom’s room in the morning and after school while she worked. I loved going to school and never wanted to miss a day for any reason. I loved school because of the teachers and staff I had and I would love to be the reason kids love coming to school as well.
