Supporting Student Responsibilities

As teacher’s we are committing to a life time of learning and development of ourselves and our learners.

My first steps, as I prepare to enter the schools, as a principal will be:

Taking into account that parents, guardians, families and the community have an abundance of knowledge to offer in regards to supporting their children’s education. Students, staff, families and the community will feel welcomed, nurtured, respected and encouraged to participate in school functions and assist in the development of our students.

Some of the ideals and principles are mindsets that an educator must possess, but many of them are also tangible goals that will help the teacher be the very best and provide the best education they can for each child they encounter. Providing an excellent education for children cannot happen without the parents. Parents need to be aware of the ways that the teacher is educating their child and helping him or her develop the skills that they need to be successful. Furthermore, teachers need to be proactive and continue taking classes to learn more about the different ways that they can improve student learning, motivation, and development. When communication between parents and educators is strong and teachers are continuing to using highly efficient strategies to teach children, the children will overcome their adversities and be productive and successful adults, in the

Specialists such as counsellors, speech-language pathologists, and social workers play a vital role in supporting student well-being. Teachers collaborate with these specialists to identify and address students' individual needs, working together to develop comprehensive support plans (National Association of School Psychologists, 2023). Effective communication and a shared understanding of student strengths and challenges are crucial for this collaboration to thrive. The relationship between teachers and parents/guardians is paramount. Teachers act as communicators, keeping

One of the key principles of the curriculum is Health and Wellbeing. This area focuses on the development and maintenance of young people’s mental, emotional, social and physical health. As well as promoting a healthy lifestyle, full of activity, challenge and

Erin Savage, my mentor for this event, guided me through each of the stages in this process, such as planning, organizing, and implementing. Her patience and use of critical thinking skills offered this program with the fundamentals of a business, yet her talent for made this program enjoyable for all. Working alongside Mrs. Savage taught me the power of influence in positivity, and uplifting myself and others. While aiding her in the development of this program, I came to the realization of the significance when educating the youth in the

All members of the school community, including teachers, families and other agencies participate in and are committed to the common purpose of enhanced student outcomes and attendance. As a home school liaison officer it is essential to effectively communicate and recognise the wider school community as each member has the ability to change and improve the learning environment.

“A teacher affects eternity; he can never tell where his influence stops.” – Henry B. Adams. For as long as I can remember, I have always wanted to play a big part in children’s education, which is why I have decided to enroll for an education course. I believe that educators have a lifelong impact on their students and on the development of resilience. Thus, I aspire to inculcate my love for learning into the next generation, by influencing and inspiring children all through their formal education.

An American psychiatrist by the name of William Glasser once stated, “When you study great teachers…you will learn much more from their caring and hard work than from their style.” Teachers are a huge part of an individual’s life. From the time a person enters into preschool until the complete cessation of their educational career, the teachers and professors along the way each influence that student’s perspective and feeling towards the particular subject they taught. With daily interactions, teachers become a part of a student’s microsystem. They are often times the only other constant adult figure in their student’s life apart from the caregiver. Whether it is acknowledged or not, the importance of teacher cannot be overstated. Unfortunately,

My measurements of success are found in each and every student I teach. One of the most rewarding experiences I have had while student teaching, was watching a child’s face light up at the pivotal moment when they grasp a new concept or master a new skill. In fact, those “aha” moments are my motivators which feed my desire to look for better ways to ensure all students experience those same “aha” moments. As an effective teacher, I am determined and dedicatef to the continual process of researching, implementing, collecting and analyzing data to ensure I am improving upon the curriculum, instructional strategies, and assessment used in my classroom. Learning is a never-ending process. The better skilled I become as a teacher, the better the learning experience I can provide for my students. Therefore, the more I actively research, implement, and reflect, the greater the opportunity for giving my students the education they deserve and hopefully, the inspiration to pursue their own lifelong love of learning.

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.

“Keep a folder of every note and letter you receive from students and parents. When you are having a bad day, pull it out and remember all the people you have influenced in a positive way.” These words were shared with me by one of my cooperating teachers and described the impact a teacher can have in learning and relationships. Unmistakable Impact continues to influence the belief that we work together to become better than we are by ourselves and that we need to be honest with ourselves in order to see our strengths and improve on our areas of concern.

As children, we absorb information and learn from experiences that mold us into who we are. Many individuals impact a child’s life, but the most powerful and influential role lies in a devoted teacher, a teacher provides growth to students as a gardener would to a garden of flowers. Each child can bloom into a thriving flower so long as you water their garden with optimism, love, patience, and guidance. Throughout my educational experiences I was lucky enough to have educators who poured their knowledge and optimism into me, and now I would like to reciprocate that back to students who are in the position I was once in. Balancing life and school is hard enough for a student, but a powerful and caring teacher can steer you in the right direction. In this autobiography you will read about my educational background, experiences that influenced my decision to become a teacher, and what I believe the role of a teacher should be in a student’s life.

Students carry a ton of responsibilities on their plate nowadays. Especially college students that undergo increasing responsibilities as young adults that continue to still mature themselves. In between work , studies, social lives, and even family to tend to the reality of life can strike them in an inundate way. Obtaining an outlet to reality remains key to coping with it all. Even though most college students emerge as adults, they still hold a strong sense of youth in their hearts. Heros and villians provide an entertaining effect on undergraduate and graduate students whether they subsist as young adults, middle aged, or elderly. Overwhelmed students need an escape from reality and might want to indulge in a comic universe; thus,
