Philosophy of Education

As I move forward in life and strive to make a positive impact on children in education, it

is with great diligence that I continue to increase my professional growth and continuously

develop improving principles.

When an individual has the privilege of representing the word educator, the core

characteristics of one should be established on all students' needs while collaborating to innovate

a distinct workforce with reaching a significant purpose.

I believe entrusting social ethics and the principles that all educators should acquire when

working in the field, we should always appreciate the pursuit of dignity, commitment to

brilliance, and fellow educators' optimistic vision. Critically leading with these policies, they will

reassure that all children are granted a free education to understand, have equal opportunities,

and gain the self-confidence to teach others. The educating individual should never compromise

these principles, but instead, acknowledge them to the highest standards.

I believe all educators should understand the significance of these responsibilities

naturally during the process of educating. The educator’s role is crucial, and the admiration of

families, children, and colleagues will permit them to express their desired qualities freely.

I believe, “If children are excited, curious, resourceful, and confident about their ability

to figure things out and eager to exchange opinions with other adults and children, they are

bound to go on learning, particularly when they are out of the classroom and throughout the rest

of their lives, Constance Kamii”, pg. 42 Wiltz, N.W. 2013).
