Everything you believe can change based on the experiences you might have. What I believed as a student-teacher, may be different from now that I have been teaching for 3 years. Your beliefs evolve and become more mature as you are exposed to more learning opportunities. What do I believe about children and education? What do I believe about their preparatory nature? What I believe.. Children should have the opportunity to learn about themselves and their strengths. All children are different, come from different backgrounds, have different habits, different personalities, they learn differently, and at a different pace. Education is acquired from different environments. Children are exposed to learning opportunities outside the classroom, sometimes children learn about responsibility when they have to take care of siblings while parents work, they learn about discipline through sports, they learn to communicate when their parents when they have conversations at dinner. School maybe the only stable environment for some children. As a teacher you may be someone that they rely on, someone that challenges them, or teaches them about habits they need to be successful. I believe every child should have the opportunity to become biliterate. This will give them a window of opportunities, perspective, tolerance, respect and sympathy. There are innumerable advantages on learning a new language | Please ask questions or make comments on my google docs about my platform to continue the journey in evolving as an educator. What I believe... With information being accessible online, children have the opportunity to educate themselves on topics of interest. It could be music, cooking, learn more about an author. Education is not limited to school and the teacher, but we need to teach children how to be responsible at they way they use the resources available to them. I believe students should not only be encouraged based on their academic achievements, but also at students unique talents, strengths and abilities that helps them become better citizens and contribute to their community . Purpose of education Children should learn how to solve problems on their own, research and explore what they would want to know, have the ability to ask questions, learn from others and be confident about who they are and what they have to contribute to their community. |
