My teaching Philosophy Statement on Education

I believe that children are our future, each of them has the potential to contribute something unique and special to the world. As an educator, it is my desire to help students meet their fullest potential in which to grow and mature emotionally, intellectually, physically, and socially by providing such environment, (1) the teacher acting as a guide, and (2) allowing the child's natural curiosity to direct his/her learning.

When the teacher acting as a guide, providing access to information rather than acting as the primary source of information, the students will gain the knowledge during they find answers to their questions. To construct knowledge, students need the opportunity to discover for themselves and practice skills in authentic situations. Providing students access to hands-on activities in group work that reinforce the lesson being studied creates an opportunity for individual discovery and construction of knowledge to occur.

Besides that, developing a curriculum that involves the interests of the children and makes learning relevant to life is equally important to stimulate the passion to learn. The way to take learning in a direction relevant to student interest is incorporate them into group study. This give the opportunity for input, students can generate their ideas and set goals. When students have ownership in the curriculum, they are motivated to work hard and master the skills necessary to reach their goals.

For me, teaching is a lifelong learning process of learning about new philosophies and new strategies. Teaching also provides an opportunity for me to continual learning and growth. One of my hopes as an educator is to instil the love of learning in my students as I share my own passion for learning with them.
