Teaching Philosophy
Teaching is a career path that involves communicating, interacting, and working with other teachers. A philosophy of education is a critical element in becoming a successful teacher as it is used to guide and assist students to becoming productive members of society. I believe that there needs to be a balance of different approaches to teaching that will provide a healthy learning environment that enables students to reach their full potential. My own personal philosophy of education continues to change as the world of education changes, and as I grow and learn as an educator. Currently my philosophy of education is entwined in four different categories; the nature of my students, the role of the teacher, teaching methodologies, and the social function of the institution of education.
