1 MY TEACHING PHILOSOPHY
Briefly write down your teaching philosophy. Include aspects such as: why you want to be a
teacher; what subject and age group you would like to teach and why; how you believe
learners learn best; how you believe teaching should take place; why you believe teaching is
a vital profession; and how you believe you can make a difference.
A good instructor, in my opinion, must also be aware of motivation and the impact of peer
experiences on learning. Since I want all my students to reach high standards of achievement, I
resist sorting them and putting them in competition with one another. Since I understand that
most of the learning occurs through social interaction, I arrange learning so that students
communicate and work productively with one another for most of the class time. Mathematics
and natural sciences, grades 4 to 6, are the topics that I would like to teach. I want to teach
those subjects because they are easy for me to understand and I have a lot of fun teaching
them in my classroom. I understand that a good teacher must have a thorough understanding
of how knowledge is produced in the discipline, structured, and connected to other disciplines.
I apply my knowledge of the discipline to introduce analytical thinking to my Learners, enabling
them to consider, apply, synthesize, and assess everything they read and hear. I love the
subjects I teach, and I know how to make them come alive for my learners.
Without being a learner, a good teacher cannot begin or continue to inspire learning. A good
teacher must keep up with what is new in their field. A successful teacher often contributes to
the creation of new knowledge. To live up to this conviction, I must constantly evaluate my
teaching methods and seek out new ones. To stay linked to my students, their lives, and the
schools where they will pursue their careers, I must continue to learn about society and the
ever-changing environments in which they reside. As they learn with me, I enthusiastically and
happily learn from them. I am a firm believer in the ability of questions and challenging
methods to elicit thought. I'm still trying to improve my "questioning" skills, since the successful
use of questions is the most important technique a teacher can use to help students
understand. Finally, I believe that a teacher's purpose in life is to serve others. A teacher is
committed to learning, to his or her discipline, to his or her pupils, and to making the world a
better place for all of us to live in the future. These are the challenges I accepted when I chose
to be a teacher. I remain committed to them.
