Teaching is leaving a vestige of one self in the development of another. And surely the student is a bank where you can deposit your most precious treasures. ~Eugene P. Bertin
As a new educator I am enthusiastic and eager for the future. From my experience I have learned that an effective and professional educator is enthusiastic, caring, has a love of learning, is carefully organized, is tremendously dedicated, and has an inherent desire to make a difference in the lives of young people.
I believe that it is my responsibility to ensure that each student has his or her own personal and individual success, this means; providing a safe and comfortable environment, building relationships with each one of my students, teaching the students not the curriculum, and ensuring that I provide opportunities for all different types of learners to demonstrate their knowledge and creativity. I want to be a fair and consistent teacher who my students will remember for years to come. My personal teaching philosophy has been developed by my experience and beliefs, which reflect my goals and interests as an educator.
