Finally, taking interest in your students lives can make a difference in their
own reflection of their life and where they have come from. Encouraging self

the ruling elite, even when such actions were clearly in contradiction with the
that educators are using their students by manipulating them into seeing the
teachers world view, rather than their own, almost like a competition. I knew
right away that this was the opposite view that I hold in regards to Education.
I believe that students all have unique views that are constructed from their
own story, and it is important that teachers give students a chance to further
write their story from their own point of view with some influence from a
theorizing practice and practising theory. Praxis is thinking about what and
why youre going to do before you do it and then reflecting on what you did,
how you did it, and how it turned out. Critical Pedagogy involves an ever-
time. As Monchinski says, one must reflect on their own practice and ensure
that it reflects their own teaching philosophy (2010). I found that the more I

changing, and there will always be new ways to instruct, assess and evaluate
students.

than just trying to get through the material. I felt that the more I taught to
the students needs, the better relationship that I had with them. Showing
students that you take a personal interest in each of them can ensure that
students know they are cared for within the school community. Assessment
can take the form of multiple differentiated instruction methods. I have had

Southern Ontario, I want students to feel that they have a chance to learn
about their own history and culture within the Ontario classroom. I aim to
ensure that students get a world view education rather than just a western
from more than just a western lens. Within English, teaching students about
teaching. Showing students that there is more than one way to look at or
view can bring out different aspects of a text that would not have been
discovered with strictly looking through one lens. Ensuring that I am teaching
students how to broaden their view on texts and different events in the world
today can have a huge impact on their ability to critically think about the
short teaching career. Students excel in their own ways, they all have unique
creative flare. I noticed that students do not engage with assignments that
they dont want to do. By giving them the freedom to put a creative spin on
