    My Educational Philosophy

    I grew up poor. It was never something I was hyper-aware of until I started to go to

    school. The kids in my class were also poor, they were not the issue, the issue began when I was

    given the opportunity to compare myself to other children from other schools. My high school, a

    low budget, often described as dangerous, and frankly, a homely looking building housed less

    than 100 poor children every day between the early hours of the morning and late afternoon.

    There were problems with violence as well as students cutting class when they were given the

    slightest opportunity. There were indeed plenty of negative things that could be said about

    Fannindel, but the teachers who dedicated their time there made going to high school the most

    life-changing experience that I could have ever hoped for. Every teacher that I had at Fannindel

    showed strong compassion for me and the other students there. They provided a safe home that

    many of the students did not have the privilege of having at their houses. For me, I received

    motivation and encouragement that I could not get at any other place. I decided that I wanted to

    become just like my heroes. I would daydream about what it could be like to be an impactful part

    of a child's life and educate them on topics that would open minds to new and brighter ideas.

    Teaching is becoming a hard job to fill. The constant changing of up and coming generations

    could be a reason why many people do not feel up to the challenge of educating. Despite the

    changing world, the need for education will always remain and perhaps even strengthen in the

    years to come. The importance to teach relies on preparing learners for new challenges that they
    will face in their lives. As an educator, it becomes one's job to help create a society that runs

    smoothly filled with educated people. By taking the time to properly educate a student for any

    topic, a teacher can actively do their part to create a better future, not just for that student but for

    the world as a whole. Also, there are tireless rewards in store for receiving an education. A bright

    mind creates a bright future.

    As a future educator, my principles are grounded in active learning. I will be sure to help

    my students stay comfortable and happy as well as receive the privilege of education. I plan to

    encourage cooperation from every student, and keep an open mind to students that may be at a

    disadvantage in their learning abilities or financial abilities. It will never be my intention, even if

    accidental, to make a student not feel good enough in and out of my classroom. I will remember

    that I was once in the seat of the student, and never hold an attitude that tells my pupils that I am

    better than them in any way.

    In order for a student to truly learn something, they not only understand the material

    being taught, but they should be able to apply the material outside the classroom. Education

    should start conversations, open minds, and help a student make advancements in their personal

    lives. I believe that for a student to truly learn something means that it will not be forgotten, it

    becomes part of them. The beauty of an education is the life changing qualities that it holds.

    In my classroom, I will utilize several strategies that hold true to my principles. I want to

    encourage active listening and learning as well as enforce good behavior in an appropriate way

    that does not communicate in an unsafe environment. In my perfect career, I want to be able to

    impact students' lives by being a listening ear for worried and stressed out children. I want to be

    the hero to my students that my teachers were to me. I wish to be a role model and reminder that

    an education can take a person anywhere, even if they feel like they have nothing at all.
