My Teaching PhilosophyTeaching is the most rewarding and fulfilling career I can imagine myself doing. The satisfaction one feels when seeing a child's eyes light up when they understand and comprehend the topics I have taught is a feeling of great accomplishment. Teaching children to become productive adults contributes to the foundation of our society. Today's children are tomorrow's adults. I want to help society the best way I know how. I want to become a teacher. My lifelong dream has always been to become not only a teacher, but also a mentor. Education as a profession is not a high-paying position, but the amount of self-satisfaction I could receive is the best reward I can get. I have always been good with children and participated in various activities and sports. As a coach, I have taught young athletes different ways to perform in the sport in which the athlete is participating. In a real situation, when I see the athlete performing what I taught, I feel a sense of pride and accomplishment. If I can feel this good helping out in extracurricular activities, I can only imagine how I would feel teaching core subjects in everyday school life. Essentialism is perhaps the teaching philosophy I intend to put into practice, because I believe in the back-to-basics approach to teaching. The essential elements of the academic process as well as the character development of students are extremely important for these students when faced with the real world. It is extremely important that students learn core subjects. I think there are certain topics that need to be covered every day to help students learn the necessary skills they will be middle of paper......a good educator. This will open my mind to even more knowledge, which I can transfer to my students and class. In conclusion, I would like to clarify that in my class, I would be the one teaching the core subjects. I will also be the one to help students with technology skills that will help them in their future. I will try to help students from the “bad home” become confident, secure, and comfortable in the classroom environment. As a teacher, I will not be strictly essentialist, perennialist or even behaviorist. I will integrate all aspects of these teaching philosophies into my classroom. I will also be a compassionate, caring, understanding teacher willing to go the extra mile for my students. I will be a teacher adaptable to my students' environment and the classroom situation..
