BIO
My Story

MY TEACHING PHILOSOPHY
LEARNER CENTRIC CLASSROOM
In my classroom, I want to focus on learner-centric classroom strategies. Many studies have proven this to be the most useful strategy for the improvement of student learning. This strategy makes the student the focal point of the classroom getting them involved in many activities. I am expecting my classroom to be a very fluid place that allows the students to voice their opinions and ideas. I want to promote assignments that are interactive and feel more like experiences overwork.
COLLABORATION
The use of collaboration has been a big influence in my educational career. This came into use more at university as it has been presented to me as a positive tool for gaining more information. Collaboration is huge in the classroom so students are able to learn how to interact with others, and hold up responsibilities. It also promotes learning since when you master something and are able to teach it, it will be more memorable for the student. The classroom should be a place of positive interactions that allows for a higher level of knowledge.
ENGAGE & LEARN
My classroom is going to provoke the student’s curiosity. I want my students to be engaged in what we are learning, and I want them to follow their passions. Their work will be focused on creativity, allowing many paths to meet successful completion. Too often students are made and groomed to fit in the box, but in my classroom I want to break out of this norm. I also want my room to be physically dynamic to help each student succeed in their own unique ways.
LOVE & HARMONY
I want to create a place where everyone feels as though they belong. As a teacher I will promote the use of collaboration and helping one another. I will use student centric strategies to promote learning. I will push the students to follow their passions, and attempt to provoke their curiosity with classroom materials. Students will both understand, and be treated fairly.
