My Philosophy Statement Coming from a family of educators, I have always been aware of the love and importance of learning. Growing up I thought I wanted to be a Marine Biologist and was even accepted at Coastal Carolina to study this field. After much deliberation, I realized that what I really wanted to do was teach. In high school, I had the opportunity to work with children through the Eagle’s Nest Club and my Spanish class and knew this is what I wanted to do. My opportunities

My Philosophy Statement Education is a very important aspect of our lives. It is our education that makes us who we are and determines what we become. Therefore, education is not something to be taken lightly. As a teacher, my goal will be to provide the best possible education for my students. Every student is unique.

Philosophy of Education Statement I believe every child has the abilities to succeed in every area of learning when given a warm, calm and stimulating atmosphere. A child’s success is my main goal.

As a future teacher, I believe that the students in my classroom will need to be disciplined rather than controlled because I believe in their ability to develop self-discipline when given the chance to do so.
