Philosophy of Education :: Philosophy of Teaching Statement

Philosophy of Education As a future educator, there are many pieces of knowledge that I anticipate to impart on my future students. I also believe that there are many different ways in which to give this knowledge. I relate myself mostly with the tender Re-Constructionists. They believe in a wide curriculum, covering more than the basics, which I feel is rattling important. One thing that I do find very important is practical educational experiences. As an elementary teacher, I will not get to see this put to much use, but I hope that my students will have future opportunities to complete internships, work-studies, and many other opportunities along those lines. I am also a very optimistic person when it comes to children and their abilities to learn. I firmly believe that every child can learn just as much as another, they just need to go at their aver pace and level. Today, too many teachers pass off children that learn slower as problems in their classroom. This is simply not the truth everyone should have equal opportunities to learn. I believe in giving children feed back. After they complete a test, I want to give them stickers and smiles for good grades, and sit down and talk with them astir(predicate) bad ones in order to see what we can do to fix the problem. I also want to be in constant contact with the parents, no way out how bothersome they are. I also enjoy change. It keeps things from becoming boring and repetitive. I would welcome other teachers and parents ideas to change my classroom and the way I gush it. I feel that too many people disagree with my philosophies, when they are things I feel like every teacher should believe in. These are the reasons I want to be an educator. I want to give kids a chance that may not have had one. I want children who have been told they are dullard to realize that it is the other persons insecurities, not their own problems. That is why I want to teach I want to teach children that no matter what they want to do, they can do it. My classroom will be very democratic. Everything, except for the basic rules, will be discussed with my students.
