My Teaching Philosophy

A teacher affects eternity; he can never tell where his influence stops. Henry Adams
What the teacher is, is more important than what he teaches. Karl A. Menniger
The above two statements go hand in hand and are just a few reasons as to why I strongly believe
that teaching is such an important career and profession for our world today. Not only will I
simply teach future maturing generations, but I will play a major role in instructing and forming
my students. Also, I will be a part of my students in their lives and facilitate their understanding
of the outside world. As an educator, I am called to be both passionate and compassionate. It is
through my passion in which I will show my students the importance of learning and how an
education will benefit and help prepare them for the years to come. Although, us teachers do not
simply teach; we motivate, raise expectations, provide opportunities, protect others, and become
beacons of light by being role models. We have many skills to apply in our classrooms, but our
greatest skill is our ability to see students for who they are and assist them, pushing them a few
extra steps while opening doors and allowing them to see their dignity and worth as human
beings, making them a part of a united community.
