My Teaching Philosophy
I fell in love with teaching at the age of eight. I would finish
my work as quickly as I could so that I could go down to the kindergarten
classes and help to teach them reading. Probably not the best for
my learning, but I loved it and have wanted to do nothing else with
my life ever since.
I want to be a teacher because i really enjoy working with children.
They are real, enlightening and very funny. I think it's a very nobel
and improtant job, teaching the fundementals of life to the next generation.
Nothing beats the feeling when a child suddenly grasps a concept you
have been patintly explaining to them for the last 20 mins.
I think it is extremely important to make an effort to treat each
child the same way. Although sometimes it may be hard as you are bound
to like some children more then others, it can have great negative
effects if I child gets wind of the fact that you dislike him or her.
I believe that children earn better in environment where they feel
safe and valued, this is the sort of environment I wish my classroom
to be.
