MY EDUCATIONAL PHILOSOPHY
My Philosophy of education is based on a student centered, teacher guided classroom filled with hands on experiences.
The purpose of education is to help students become socially accepted individuals and productive members of society along with offering the opportunity of diverse experiences. Providing a secure, caring stimulation atmosphere in which the students can grow and mature emotionally, intellectually, physically, and socially will aid them in becoming well-adjusted members of society.
As a teacher, the times I will be spending with the students allow me to offer this type of environment, which will ensure them to meet their fullest potential possible.
Helping students to develop a deep love and respect for themselves, others, and their environment occurs through an open sharing of a ideas. I will continue to instill this in my students through my interest of learning as I share my passion of education with them.
Over the life span of my career as an educator I will continue my love of learning through continued education. My belief is that learning takes place through one's life span and never stops.
