My Personal Goal As A Future Teacher

Fundamental beliefs or convictions determine a person’s core values. Convictions act like the supporting ground that allows me to build my behavior and actions as a professional. Core convictions allow me to identify what is right from wrong; as a teacher, they can help me determine if I am on the right track when fulfilling my professional goals. This is why I think convictions and goals are related; while goals set my objectives as a teacher, my core convictions make sure that these objectives are lenient with professional behavior and practices. In this composition, I will illustrate five core convictions about teaching and learning and how they relate to my professional goals as a teacher.

I believe that positive student/teacher interaction and family involvement are essential to the learning process. I believe that all students can succeed in education. It is my goal as a teacher to develop the intellect of all learners through a challenging curriculum. I hope to propose thought provoking questions that will prompt students to think and learn on their own. I will provide supervised practice to ensure the students in my classroom are learning. I believe problem-solving skills will be the most valuable skills students can learn. It is important for the class to be active in the community and active in life-changing events. Students learn best by doing. Emphasis will be placed on learning how to learn. Students will take an active role in helping decide what they learn and how they want to learn it. They will be responsible for helping to care for and maintain the learning environment, thus taking ownership of the class.

I hope to embrace all parts of every student and include all different types of learners as I create my future classroom. As future and hopeful elementary education teacher I want to give every child the opportunity to be a part of my classroom.

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

It is also very important to keep in mind that teaching is about enhancing development, and ensuring that students know that you genuinely respect, and want what’s best for them. When teachers get to know their students, they can plan more individually based on their specific needs. They are able to better prepare themselves to provide the students with the least

It has been my dream since Elementary School to become an Elementary School teacher. The decision to attend college has not always been an easy decision. I have many goals to obtain my college degree. I have had many conversations about attending college. Some conversations being very helpful and persuasive, some being very negative and nerve wrecking. The school that I chose to attend in the end was Alabama State University. I promised myself that this school will make me the best teacher since I chose my favorite teacher.

Successful teaching occurs when the teacher is able to select the most efficient method for reaching out to each student’s individual style of learning and inspire students to rise to their highest potential. While the responsibilities of a teacher are extensive (as one can serve as a teacher, a friend, a counselor, a disciplinarian, an entertainer, a facilitator), I believe that students should play a big part in shaping own education as well.

The inquisitiveness and enthusiasm from children has encouraged me to work with young people. To become an excellent teacher, I know I must have the ambition to guide and support children to learn. This is something I learnt whilst on work placement at St Pancras Community Association (SPCA) working with children from 1-7 years and St Michael's primary school working with year 2 children.

As teacher my principle goal is help children development in the physical, social/emotional cognitive and language. While they play, explore observe and enjoy them, in every stage of their childhood, providing the best didactic tool.

My role as a teacher is to assist and offer activities that enhance academic, social and emotional development by using strategies that incorporate all learning styles. Curriculum should be student centered and the student must play a part in their own learning process. To facilitate meeting the educational goals of my students my instructions must be clear and uncomplicated when delivering a lesson. Integrating and accommodating a classroom of students from a variety of backgrounds and proficiency levels can be challenging. Therefore, it will be my responsibility to determine individual learning styles. Furthermore, assessments and observations will provide me the opportunity to choose curriculum and experiences that take into account each student’s instructional needs. In order for students to develop intellectually they need opportunities to discover for themselves and practice in authentic situation that improve their own unique abilities. Presenting young students with unconventional means for acquiring knowledge (e.g. internet access, iPads) and allowing learners a number of ways to demonstrate what they have learned, will motivate them to respect and support their own

As a student teacher I have been challenged to examine these goals in light of my personal experience in the classroom with real students. As a result of this self-examination and evaluation I find my primary motivation for becoming a teacher has not changed. It is my desire to make a positive impact on my student’s lives by helping them see that the challenge of learning can be fun. I hope to share my own love of learning and science by appealing to my student’s natural curiosity about the world around them. Creating challenging lesson plans that engage student’s on every level allows me to utilize my own creative talents and fan the creative spark in their minds and create a positive attitude toward learning that will help carry them successfully through their own academic

After receiving my Bachelor of Arts in Elementary Education, I plan to further my education through UNC Charlotte’s M.Ed. in Special Education, Major in Academically or Intellectually Gifted program. I then aspire to teach in CMS schools, serving the needs of Academically or Intellectually Gifted children specifically. My career goals in the field of education are to start out teaching my own class and gaining invaluable experience in the classroom. After a numbers of years working with a large group of my own students, I strive to move to a position in which I am part of a program targeted specifically at meeting the academic needs of AIG students.

I know that children learn in many different ways. Observing, experimenting, reading, and listening are a few of those many ways. I have learned that people learn best when the information is something that they are interested in. I am going to strive to make every lesson fun, and applicable to my students. I favor using many methods to teach, including lecturing, cooperative learning, project based instruction, and “hands-on” activities. I want the classroom to be a place that the students enjoy, not a boring place. I believe that every child has an innate hunger for learning and becoming successful. If I can harness their craving and aim it in the right direction, I believe I will be successful in helping these students achieve what they are looking for in life.

I have always been passionate about learning and I hope to ignite that same desire in each one of my students. I’m a life-long learner. When I was a child, my family always stressed the importance of an education. As a result, I would play school with my sister, Crystal, for hours. I noticed that the more we played, the more eager to learn, she became! This fascinated

As a teacher, one’s role and responsibility should be towards the learners’ ability to learn and for learning to be as tailored made for the individual learner.
