Professional Philosophy of Education
My philosophy of education is molding as I continue to teach in Wake County Public Schools in North Carolina. In my classroom, school and community I will be an effective teacher by being consistent and dependable. I will instill in other a need for respect and humility in my classroom, and encourage and inspire them to be lifelong learners. As I reflect on my philosophy and beliefs regarding the field of education, teaching, and learning, my mission as a teacher is to:
-
Promote a positive learning environment where students feel supported, encouraged, valued, and respected.
-
Encourage enthusiasm and inspire learners to grow in their knowledge of content in mathematics, reading, writing, science, social studies, and spelling.
-
Provide a strong foundation so students will be lifelong learners.
To meet these goals, I implement various strategies based on my education principles that reflect cognitive functioning and learning styles, instructional planning, learning theory, assessment, professional development, and my contributions to society.
