More Than a Passion, a Lifestyle
My biggest hope as an educator is to share my love for teaching with my students along the way of learning from them. In our competitive society it is crucial for students to not only receive a meaningful education, but to work with someone who is sensitive to their individual needs. I will always strive to be the best educator that I can be since along my education years I have encountered many teachers that weren’t so thrilled about being educators. There are three elements that I believe are conducive to establishing an exciting and learning environment, they are, a caring but guide full teacher, allowing the child's curiosity to direct his/her learning, and promoting respect for one another.

To learn means to prepare yourself for the future, to gain knowledge and know how to use it appropriately, to have an open mind, and to know to response to anything you encounter. What’s taught should be determined in equal parts with society, the state, the district, students, and their parents. Everyone should have a voice in education because to make Earth a better world we must all be equal and own to the right of being free, and speaking for ourselves! I would provide student’s access to hands-on activities and allow adequate time and space to use materials that pertain to the lesson being studied, it creates an opportunity for individual discovery and construction of knowledge to happen.
According to Queens University of Charlotte, “A teacher who can make learning not only fun, but engaging and memorable, will help establish the value of education in the mind of the student.” Connecting the curriculum to student interests creates motivation and stimulates the passion to learn. One way to take learning in the direction of student interest is to invite student converse about the lessons and units of study. Every child has the potential to bring something unique and special to the world, therefore, I will help children to develop their potential by believing in them as capable individuals and never give up! This belief falls under the progressivism approach. I believe students should be persuade to explore, to
As a teacher, I will work to fully provide opportunities for authentic learning, where every child feels valued, safe and included. My goal will be to find occasions every day to nurture independent learning, along with peer support that promotes a sense of personal growth and achievement. I recognize that every child has strengths and weaknesses, special talents, and specific needs, regardless of individual challenges. My objective will be to model appropriate behavior and show acceptance of everyone
“The educator values the worth and dignity of every single person, the search of veracity, devotion to excellence, acquisition of knowledge, and the nurture of democratic citizenship. Essential to the achievement of these standards are the freedom to learn and to teach and the guarantee of equal opportunity for all”. This means putting learner interests beyond everything else, especially personal advantage. The instructor will attempt their greatest to support each school child to identify his or her potential as a laudable and self-motivated member of the society by functioning to motivate the spirit of research, the self-reflection of knowledge and
I believe that every student has the right and the ability to learn, patience and energy must be woven together to encourage the students. Due to my belief, I have the patience. My energy is fueled by my ability to see the potential in every individual with whom I cross paths with. My dream to become an educator began in sixth grade, when one teacher saw what I had to offer to the world. Along with teaching, I strive to learn as much as I can. I find great joy in acquiring new bits of knowledge. My thirst for learning is infinite. From then on, I sought out opportunities in which I could give back and inspire. I worked with the community to provide educational experiences for individuals of all ages. Going into college, I worked with my professors
My passion is to tell people that Muslims are not terrorist. ISIS doesn’t have religion, and they don't know anything about Islam because Islam is the religion of peace not war. There were lots of attacks that they did, and the recent one was the Paris attack. I want to start off by expressing my deepest sympathies to all the people in France. Any act of violence against innocent people is an act of violence against all innocent people.
Ever since I could remember, I have always dreamt of being a professional dancer. From taking classes since I was three to attending summer dance intensives to being chosen to perform the lead role in my studio’s production of the Nutcracker, I have always had a passion for dancing. As I grew up, I realized that I also had a passion for learning, and I became determined to excel in school. Now that I am approaching college, I know that I want to attend a school that provides a challenging academic curriculum and a good dance program. Since the University of Richmond is a highly selective institution that provides both a rigorous liberal arts education and a stellar dance program, I believe that the University of Richmond is the right fit for
Becoming a teacher has always been a passion of mine. Two of my older sisters teach young children. Seeing the joy they bring to children, helps me strive to be as good at teaching as they are. They have shown me how important it is to be kind and loving with children. My first-grade teacher is also part of the reason I continued to follow my dreams. She made school fun and was always caring to all the children. She made me excited about learning and made school a place that I felt important and safe when I missed my parents. She touched my life forever and I am so thankful for her. Growing up, I enjoyed school and truly looked up to my teachers.
Writing has always been a crucial part of my life. Despite any issues I faced, from my penmanship to my versatility as a writer, I wasn’t going to let these dilemmas prevent me from accomplishing my goals. Prosperity never came easy and at times it did seem futile to continue trying, but defeat wasn’t an option. Reflecting on the obstacles I conquered, it’s because of the arduous process I endured that allowed me to evolve into the writer I am today.
My passion in life is art. But my passion in life is also helping those who are struggling in life. I never really expected either of the two to be recognized by anyone, let alone a newspaper reporter. But they were. I've always struggled with depression and anxiety. I've hit rock bottom but I was able to come back from that and the thought of having the opportunity to share my story with others was intoxicating.
My favourite quote of all time is: “Through Christ, all things are possible”, in which I can relate to because it reassures me that God is always there for me to fall back on, further corresponding to my education and passion for sport and exercise science. I enjoy studying the different aspects that sport and exercise science brings because it helps me to understand my body better, it's a great way to make new friends, maintain fitness levels and you could find a new hobby. My family life helped me to recognise my love for sports, with all of the activities that we have done, for example, bike rides every Saturday and playing different sports in the back-garden. As I moved into secondary school and joined the girls’ netball and football club, I was a-part of both teams which meant we were representing our school while competing. Not only was it the practical side of sports, but the theory side reinforced my passion for sports. I believe I have a really good understanding of the importance behind the science and exercise of sport-this I know will definitely help me with my future education. My fascination on understanding how the body works has fuelled my ambition on learning more about the human body at a higher educational level. This is why I chose to do my college work experience in a Secondary school, in which I had to do 30 hours or more, to complete one area of my course. During my time of experience, I observed the different sports teachers- how they taught their
Throughout my 14 years of life, I have always been a musical child. At a very early age, I was exposed to all different genres and artists, from Gwen Stefani to AC/DC. I easily fell in love with music, enjoying it and learning it. Although I have always adored music and have been shy to express that to other people, in the past few years I have been more open to sharing my talent and my passion for it, with other people.

Education has been a large part of my life ever since I can remember. It probably has to do with the fact that my dad was a retired high school teacher, and my my mom was a working science teacher in the 5th grade. Math and science have been a crucial part in shaping the person I am today, and that is all thanks to my parents who have pushed me to be who I am. Ever since I could read I have been eager to learn new things, but there was one instance that sparked my interest in learning. What could that be, you may ask. Well, it all started with a book about dinosaurs.
Imagine having the power to go anywhere at any time and any place. To be able to see the world through anybody’s perspective and experience the unimaginable. That’s what I thought reading was like. In one second I could be sitting in my living room and in the next I would be in the magical world of Harry Potter. I absolutely loved reading. I would bring a book everywhere I went whether it be on a vacation or a quick trip to the grocery store. Occasionally, I would write stories or in my journal, but writing simply never compared to my passion for reading.
Caring for a child in their moment of need is just one of the countless times when I felt for certain medicine is my calling. Through volunteering as an emergency room technician and witnessing my grandfather’s decline in health, I realized that I am both passionate and enamored with medicine. I find myself time and time again, inspired and exhilarated to observe and work with doctors, nurses, and support staff to help people in their time of need.
It is also very important to maintain complete respect for the student. No matter what skill level a student has they should be treated equally to all other students. "The secret of Education lies in respecting the pupil. It is not for you to choose what he shall know, what he shall do" (Education). The student chooses whether or not they want to be educated, one cannot force knowledge upon a student. Teachers should encourage students and provide them the tools to learn, not force students or put them down.
Thoughout my career in school, I have always pushed myself to go above and beyond what is expected. I enjoy taking AP classes, being invloved in extra curricular activities such as band and golf, and helping the community through my work with National Honor Society. I have always excelled in school but it wasn't until I got to high school that I realized my love for music. Being in a competitive percussion program that includes marching band and indoor drum line, provided me with many opprotunities. I have been able to perform in Dayton, Ohio , Chicago, Illinois and many places thoughout Texas including Bass Hall and Texas A&M University. Along with these group experiences, I have had the opportunity to perform at the state level solo contest and receive a division 1 for my performance.
