1. My Teaching Philosophy
Every child can learn; every child deserves my respect and my best professional efforts.
I will strive to maintain my sense of humor and allow my students the freedom to smile, to laugh,
and to respectfully disagree with me.
I am my students' friend, not their peer.
I can learn new things from my students.
My primary teaching goal is to enable and to encourage students to communicate effectively.
My lessons and methods shall be student-centered.
I will grade fairly and firmly.
Classroom time is to be used for students to learn, not for me to catch up on other things.
I will be well-prepared for each class.
I wholeheartedly encourage and seek parental involvement. Parents are always welcome in my
classroom, and they may see their child's work or ask about their child's progress at any time.
I will strive to cooperate as much as possible with my colleagues on the faculty, the
administration, and other school personnel.
I will continually seek to grow spiritually, intellectually, and professionally.
I will "build a fence around the playground."
