Education+Philosophy

__My Education Philosophy __

My philosophy on teaching and being a teacher:  I believe in the hope of a student; the hope to learn, the hope to fit in, and the hope to succeed. It is my philosophy to encourage that hope and supply the students with a knowledge that always makes them yearn for more. My goal is to have a positive impact on each student that comes into my class. Everyone has had a teacher that has pushed him/her to be the best they can be, to shoot for the stars, and to achieve the impossible; my aspiration is to be that teacher, to be that influence, and to be that encourager.  I believe that school is a safe haven for any student who comes through the doors. I believe in an equal opportunity for every student, no matter what special ability he/she may or may not have. In my classroom, each student has the privilege to ask questions, to make mistakes, and to learn from those mistakes. We will work together for a common goal, while not forgetting each individual member’s strengths and characteristics. My hope is to provide an environment that is able to accommodate every student in order to help him/her succeed, both in my class and beyond.

 I believe in the adequate preparation of each student for whatever may come next. I will prepare them in the best way I know how for every type of situation. One knows that the student learns much more in school than just spelling and arithmetic. I will strive to instill a sense of citizenship and morality in each student. I will provide them with tools that will help them succeed for the rest of their lives.

 I believe that each student is on a road of discovery. My hope is for each of them to succeed. I will assist them in every way I know to help them discover who they are and what path is the best for them.

 I believe in the idea that one is never too old, too young, or too full of information to learn. With every experience, we have the opportunity to turn it into a learning one for every person involved. My aim for myself is to always be evolving and adapting in order to create a better environment for my students and myself, and to become the best teacher I can be by means of constant learning. My goal is to make every day better than the day before and every year better than the year before.

* My goal is to always be learning and adapting. I hope that as I continue to grow and change, my philosophy will do the same.

__About Me __

I love to read and go to movies, as well as spend time with my family and friends. I love the warm weather and going to OU football games. I wanted to become a teacher because of a teacher I had in college. Ever since I got into education and teaching, I knew it was right for me.
