Teaching Philosophy Statement

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

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.

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
