My Personal Philosophy Of Education

Education is one of the most important things we learn in our lives. As a future educator my personal philosophy is to instill the values of cooperation, fairness and justice into the hearts of our students. Students need guidance and support in many areas of their life. A teacher can make a drastic difference in a child’s life. It is important to teach our future innovators to think critically, help them to see their worth, help the student to engage in the classroom and outside of the classroom. Letting a student have a voice in what they enjoy and what class rules should be can result in a positive learning experience. Creating teacher-student relationships and supporting them in play, passion, and helping them find their purpose will help support them through their failures which are positive learning experiences. Progressivism is a philosophy that supports this type of learning. Teaching academics with a progressivism outlook, it can help students with their outlook on the democratic society. Students can learn how to create their voice, what they believe, and increase their knowledge to achieve their goal along with teacher support.

My philosophy of education is that every child should receive high quality education that is inclusive, relevant and meaningful to their life. I am a firm believer of making pedagogy relatable to my students. My vision is driven by my personal experiences with the American school system. I was what is thought of as “A child at risk”. I am an immigrant, black, Muslim student. My life is transactional as I am a part of multiple marginalized groups. Most of my teachers looked at me in a pity way. They always felt the need to feel sorry for me and to question my academic excellence when I performed highly on exams. There were numerous times in which a teacher asked if I received outside help with my work or

My teaching philosophy of education is being able to recognise that all children learn in different and unique ways. I believe that all students should have a safe learning environment which enables them to grow physically, mentally, emotionally and socially. As a teacher, I aim to act as a guide for student learning and provide demonstrations and understanding to all students. More specifically as a physical education teacher, I aim to bring a positive and encouraging attitude to the students and incorporate cooperative games that involve every student regardless of abilities. I aim to create atmosphere where students feel they can ask questions about their personal learning and reach their full potential. Teaching physical education, I

When I first set out to write my educational philosophy, I had absolutely no idea what to write about, to be perfectly honest. So, I thought that I would start with the most essential aspect of an educational philosophy: why do I want to become a teacher? The reason why I want to teach is because I want to be able to impact young people’s lives and help them to learn how to become successful citizens in our world. I feel that it is important that no matter what students do with their lives, they are given a firm structure of practical life skills, so that they are set-up to be as successful and productive as possible. I strive to be able to help students learn how to become consumers who make responsible choices. This involves teaching the students how to build heathy relationships, make wise food choices, manage their money, and more. I feel that the purpose of education is to help students become as well-prepared as possible for what the real world is like, as well as assisting them to discover what career path they want to pursue so that they can achieve their personal goals. My role as an educator is to help students to develop crucial life skills and guide them to make choices that will benefit them in the future.

There is a multitude of schools and teachers throughout the world. Each teacher has their own set of beliefs and values. These beliefs and values are exceptionally important because they guide each educator in the way they choose to teach. These beliefs of education are known as the philosophy of education. The philosophy of education is defined as the influences of what is taught and how the students will be taught. Throughout my study in my education class and past experiences, my mind was expanded and I acquired sufficient knowledge to develop my own concept of my personal philosophy of education.

The meaning of education is different for everybody. The dictionary defines education as the act or process of imparting or acquiring general knowledge (Dictionary). For me, in wanting to be a Math teacher, education is far more as it is unique in not only acquiring knowledge, but also in developing human interaction/ relationships and individual beliefs. I believe that motivation and pushing students to reach their full potential is essential. This can be done by first establishing a secure and stimulating environment where I and the student can learn, grow, and mature. At the core of education is establishing a relationship with the students in a way that promotes and increases learning. These relationships require respect on both sides and is necessary for the relationship to positively thrive. It is also important to me that students take an interest in the actual content and subject of their liking, rather than focus only on achieving a certain grade. Education is full of obstacles and challenges; however, it comes with excitement and benefits that I hope students can experience.

To be a teacher, it takes a special type of person. I do not believe that just anyone can become a teacher. When making the decision to become an educator, it says something about who you are as a person. It gives you a firm reassurance that you are influencing and changing the lives of our future leaders, police officers, doctors, etc. A teacher is a friend, a listening ear, a shoulder to cry on, as well as a parent at times. To be a great teacher, you must possess the following traits and be able to perform the following actions needed to successfully shape the lives of your students: Professionalism, curriculum, teaching methods, classroom management, and assessment.

It is important to be aware of students with exceptionalities, students from diverse cultures, religions, and backgrounds etc. As a future educator, I would make sure all my activities are inclusive to all students e.g., race, ethnicity, sex, physical ability, culture, language, gender, background etc. I would also make sure I support the achievement for all my students, ensuring that students backgrounds and circumstances do not stop them from achieving full benefits. As an educator I will apply what I learned in this course into my teaching practice. Therefore, my hopes and dreams as an educator is to make sure I fulfill all curriculum requirements, but I also teach students the critical skills they need.

I believe that progressivism educational philosophy most closely matches my educational ideals. In my opinion based on the progressivism educational philosophy, the purpose of education is to enable students to learn useful knowledge that has meaning to them in the future. Thus, the most useful education for students is the skill of “learning how to learn”. When students understand the methods of learning they will be capable of learning useful and meaningful knowledge for the endurance of their lives. Successfully educated students will have made the transition from having their learning experiences guided by a teacher to being able to

It was very challenging for me to write my educational philosophy due to the fact that I never really thought about the kind of teacher I want to become. Though this was a challenging task, I am grateful for the opportunity because figuring out what my philosophy is will help me to understand what kind of teacher I want to be. Looking back at my learning and teaching experiences, I always had strong beliefs in what I want my classroom to look like and how I would go about providing a high quality education for the students I will encounter, but I never thought those beliefs were stem from the different philosophies in education. In previous education classes, I read about the different philosophies in education and I believe that the two philosophies that helped shaped my educational beliefs are essentialism and progressivism.

The learning experience should be that of a collective nature where students are able to indiscriminately relate to the information, re-teach the information and have a balanced incorporation of all the learning centers in society; including the home and the church. The goal of this incorporation is to create a balanced learning environment that facilitates holistic development in the young mind. As professionals entrusted with the shaping of young minds, teachers must facilitate learning and personal, spiritual, ethical and academic development. My philosophy for education is a multi-part philosophy that encapsulates the idea of holistic and inclusive learning. The philosophy caters for the overall shaping and development of the young mind and includes aspects of balanced training, incorporated teachings and it generally focuses on training students to become teachers.

At the first quarter, I said that I really like to become a teacher, and I also said become a teacher do not easy. But I still think if we really want to teach children by heart we can do it. Children is a seed of country, and we need fosterage it, provide a knowledge, and build a beautiful soul for them. In the life, we know parents are best important for children, but I think teacher also is third parent with children. In my opinion, there are three elements I believe it is my philosophy on education is a good teacher is not just teaching by wisdom knowledge, that we should teaching by our heart, encourage student to ask questions, and unbiased, non-conservative, wise, help students with all respect. And I think my personal philosophy concerns to good teaching, the way children learn best, and the purpose of education.

I believe that are a multitude of purposes to schooling, the obvious one being to academically teach and challenge students in the four “main” subjects: mathematics, science, language arts and social studies. I think that these subject areas should be studied, which they are, because it is important to learn the basics to function in society. You will need to know simple math like addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. You will utilize what you learn from biology and chemistry to make sense of the world. As an American, it is probably good for you to know whom the past presidents of our country were and to learn about the horrible acts committed by leaders like Hitler and Stalin. Of course, you will always need to know how to write, read and speak

Cultural and linguistic diversity is increasing in places all over the world at a remarkable rate. As the world becomes connected through language, it has become increasingly important to build an understanding and openness to different cultures and languages. Just as each student brings their own background knowledge and talents to the classroom, each teacher brings their own experiences that have shaped their philosophies of teaching. In a world filled with beautiful places to wander to, experiencing new cultures and languages has become a love and passion of mine. Combined with my devotion to the education field and my personal life experiences, a desire to teach in the TESOL career field was one that came quite easily. My mother was

My philosophy of education is that each child is a unique individual who needs a secure, caring, and stimulating atmosphere in which to grow and mature emotionally, intellectually, physically, and socially. A safe environment is very beneficial to a child’s learning. Providing a safe environment will allow a child to expand his or her horizons and feel free to learn new tasks and topics. A vision statement is a public declaration that schools use to describe their high-level goals for the future and for what they hope to achieve if they successfully fulfill their organizational purpose. A vision statement may also describe a school’s ideals, its organizational values, long-term objectives, or what it hopes its students will learn or be capable of doing after graduating.
