Teaching Philosophy Statement

A large group of students in the United States makeup a large population of English language learners. Students who are considered English language learners undergo many challenges in their education, and without the necessary support and resources from their educators it can make it hard for them to succeed. A teacher plays a significant role in the success of a child, and it is crucial for them to be able to provide the proper education to students whose first language is not English. It is also very important for teachers to understand the challenges that these students are facing. Having empathy towards the students allows for the teacher to create better connections and relationships to better help them.

Teaching New York magazine says that only 6% of people get the job they wanted as a child. I’ve wanted to be a teacher my whole life. I’ve always wanted to help people grow and develop. My teachers always used to tell me I’d be an amazing teacher. When we would do group projects at school, I loved it because I got to stand up and tell these people something they may or may not already know!

In addition to that, Montessori discussed different ages at which children are in a good educational period, where they are willing and ready to learn and explore the world as they grow up (American Montessori Society, 2016). From that, individual teachers or knowledge providers should ensure the engagement and interest of children because they are the main basics of learning. However, 60 % of kids drop out of high school, and 80% of kids. In addition, there are kids in schools without any engagement, enjoyment of learning and they do not get any benefit from that. According to Ken 2012, the real education has to give equal weight to the arts, the humanities and to physical education through which children get interested and enjoy learning, which they benefit from.

During this time students are so impressionable and I want to be an inspiration and a role model to my students. I want to guide my students while also helping them to grow and preparing them for the real world. I hope to challenge my students and push them to be the best they can be while also having fun in school. I have had a few teachers throughout the years who really understood me, helped me through all of my challenges, pushed me in the right direction, and helped me realize that I want to be a teacher. Having a supportive and engaged teacher is amazing for a student to have and I want to be

I myself am native speaker, and English is my second language, but if it would be me the kid who goes to school in America and everything I study at school is in english and not related to me in anyway, whether it is my language or my history then, of course I would need to learn my native language because I don’t live my homeland and this is my school now that will teach who I would be tomorrow,   So yes I agree and support the school system that offers teaching kids their Native Language, because they are teaching kids who they are.     I was doing observation at Minnesota Math and Science Academy “Charter School” for my other Education Class,  and while I was observing their I realized that 80% of the students at the school belong to same ethnicity background, and I happen to the same question  whether they teach kids their native language or

I am pursing a degree in Elementary Education and Early Childhood Education. I am passionate about education and excited to share the joy of learning with students. The perspective of wonder and sense of excitement that children bring into education motivates me daily. Teaching can leave a lasting impression in a child’s life and offers a special opportunity to shape the bright young minds of future generations. While many professions can be impactful, I believe the qualities of the person in the career position to be the most influential.

Personal Statement The love of teaching blossomed in me at a very young age. In elementary school, I never hesitated to offer my assistance to my teacher with daily classroom tasks. While over the summer, most children would be outside playing and enjoying their time away from school. I could be found inside taking attendance of my imaginary students and printing assignments for them to complete.

Anyone wanting to be a successful educator must have an incredible passion for the kids they serve. Resultantly, successful teachers want to constantly improve their knowledge and abilities in order to become their best. That is what kids deserve. For me to grow, develop, and become an excellent Teaching Fellow, I need to learn different teaching styles to benefit individual needs, hold myself accountable for student learning, and understanding how to cultivate classroom community . It is first necessary that I better understand ways of teaching that can benefit different students individually.

I have always had thoughts about how I want to be as a teacher, but never really knew how to put it into words. I know that I want to be a teacher that is kind and has true compassion for her students and their learning experiences. I want to instill excitement in the children and make learning fun. In my preschool classroom, I want to try and be as organized as possible even though I am not always the most organized person.

I want to teach because I desire to make an impact not only in the field of education, but also in a child’s life. Without an education our future generations will be going downhill as productive members of society, and that is why a teacher’s role in society is crucial. I want to teach because I want to revamp how everyone sees learning- I aspire to make learning exciting. As a teacher, I aim to be an inspiration for my students, but also for future teachers, for the reason that teachers have the capability of collectively, and individually, changing the world.

These children will be customer service representatives, and business professionals, brain surgeons and fry cooks; literally everything that is accomplished by “adults” today will be completed by “children” thirty years from now. The loud obnoxious student in the back of the class building paper airplanes will too be part of the society we inhabit. These are not just children; they are pre-adults in need of preparation for the real world. Therefore I believe it is imperative that all children be given the opportunity to sit in a classroom, to be challenged and then changed, by the information provided to them.

I have wanted to be a teacher for as long as I could remember. As a child, I would play school with my neighborhood friends. It was fun. It was exciting. It is thrilling to have someone understand what you are trying to show them.

I personally love learning, and I want to become a teacher. If I can teach in a way that makes others interested in learning more, then I feel like I have succeeded on the spreading the power of discovery; I have opened the world for that person. I am firm believer that every class has its’ importance and relevancy to someone’s life. My dedication to learning, strong work ethic, and desire to spread knowledge and passion to others is evident in my academic past and in my philosophy of learning.

Growing up there is one question asked so many times you lose count before you reach double digits, that question is “What would you like to be when you grow up?”. Personally it was the experiences I gained over time that eventually lead me into education. Like many others I had dreams of becoming a lawyer, doctor, nurse and even the next big movie star but teachers were my biggest inspiration and it eventually became my goal to be just like them. I encountered some great educators over the years and most I didn’t truly appreciate until my high school years. Teachers do so much to inspire students that it became clear to me before my sophomore year of high school this was a career path I wanted.

I believe that teaching is the most rewarding profession in the world. Teachers have a unique opportunity to positively impact an individual’s life each day. My passion for teaching was ignited within me during secondary school when I began to appreciate the passion and determination my teachers had, and the lengths they would go to ensure my success. This experience had a profound impact on me and manifested a desire to provide this positive experience for others.
