Teaching Philosophy!!!


Teaching English is really important for me. When I am in a classroom and I can make my students feel the same way I feel about this foreign language, I can say that my teacher goal is accomplished.
I am passionate about education because I am a constant learner myself.I believe that a key element in the foreign language classroom is keeping the students motivated. The enthusiasm, cultural elements, and technology into the classroom increase learning motivation. When you teach with a contagious smile and open personality it helps to interact with the students as you guide them through their learning process.
My objective as a teacher is to motivate my students toward a level of independence where they develop a desire to learn and think for themselves. To reach this end, I rely upon many activities that involve a total physical response by the students. Through this type of active participation, students learn and form their own opinions and base of knowledge.
I define my approach to teaching foreign language as rationalistic since I encourage critical thinking and a desire among my students to communicate. It is also important that I keep in mind that each student is different and that I have to respect their uniqueness in the learning process.
