Philosophy of Education :: Philosophy of Teaching Statement

Philosophy of Education As a proximo educator, there be legion(predicate) pieces of knowledge that I hope to founder on my coming(prenominal) students. I also commit that there are many different ways in which to give this knowledge. I tie myself mostly with the Social Re-Constructionists. They believe in a wide curriculum, concealment more than the basics, which I feel is very important. One thing that I do find very important is practical educational experiences. As an elementary teacher, I will not get to see this move to more use, but I hope that my students will watch future opportunities to complete internships, work-studies, and many other(a) 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 each child can learn just as much as another, they just need to go at their own dance step and level. Today, too many teachers pass off children that learn slower as pr oblems 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 compulsion to give them stickers and smiles for good grades, and sit down and lecture with them about bad ones in order to see what we can do to fix the problem. I also unavoidableness to be in constant contact with the parents, no matter how bothersome they are. I also applaud 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 run 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 stupid to realize that it is the other persons insecurities, not their own problems. That is why I want to t each I want to teach children that no matter what they want to do, they can do it. My classroom will be very democratic. Everything, chuck out for the basic rules, will be discussed with my students.
