    Running head: PERSONAL TEACHING PHILOSOPHY 1

    A. Theoretical Introduction
    Philosophy of the Classroom

    An educator or teacher is a profession that should not be taken lightly. Teaching is vital

    to the development of an individual. It is filled with challenges, frustrations, and responsibilities.

    However, it is also filled with excitement, joy, and love. Every day is a new day in the classroom,

    and it takes compassion, organization, discipline, and hard work to maintain a successful one.

    There are no two teachers that are alike. Each teacher brings their own unique way of teaching

    that is displayed and executed in the classroom. My ultimate goal is to provide a safe and

    meaningful learning environment that invite students to a positive and loving classroom.

    I want to create a classroom where my students can walk into where they feel safe and

    have respect for one another. Student will practice the golden rule of loving one another by

    showing their respect. Not only would they respect their fellow classmates, but also everyone

    that steps foot into the classroom. It is a place where everyone is treated like family and no one

    will feel left out. Also, a safe haven to share thoughts and feelings with one another (Bucher and

    Manning, 2010). It important that students are physically, emotionally, and socially safe in class

    or else their defense mechanism will rise and learning will decrease tremendously.

    I would not want a barrier that will cause any of my students to shut down all together. It

    is key for students, parents, and school staff to share a harmonious relationship to be of service to

    on another in the school community. Having a student shut down or give up is never something I

    would like to witness in my lifetime, especially when it could be avoided. I will keep myself

    readily available to provide the necessary resources for my students and be the light for them.

    As I build a strong foundation with a safe learning environment, I could create a

    meaningful classroom where students are able to make good progress and achieve their full

    potential. I strongly believe that all children are capable of learning. As a teacher I must keep in

    mind that all students learn in different levels and become aware of all the learning styles of my

    students. Differentiated instruction and accommodations must be taken into consideration when

    creating lessons and setting classroom management (Robb, 2017).

    Assumptions: the Nature of Young People and Learning

    All students come from different family backgrounds. Some may have both parents

    present, while others either only has one parent, grandparents, or guardian who care for them. No

    matter what background they may be, each student is capable to learn. They are entitled to be

    served and taught in a matter that could meet their academic needs. It is my job as a teacher to

    reach out to all of my students and ensure I meet all of their needs.

    A. Expectations/Policies/Rules/Boundaries

    Classroom expectations are key to a successful class. Right from the first day of school,

    rules and expectations will be discussed and practiced. These expectations are easily seen by

    students and consequences are put into place. If ever there is a need to remind or correct a

    students behavior, I plan to provide students the opportunity to have a fresh start just like

    everyone else. I understand that everyone can have a bad day due to uncontrollable situations

    that may occur.

    Students are taught with structure and direct instruction. Through this practice, they will

    understand that I am the leader and adult in the classroom that will guide them to success.

    Students will be given the chance to learn how to facilitate their own learning while being able to

    express themselves and use their creativity. There will be plenty of activities and projects to

    make their own choices that will fit their personalities and learning styles. Once they have

    learned the process and routine, they will be able to facilitate on their own and have the chance

    to work cooperatively. Learning together promotes positive and healthy relationships among

    students (Johnson, 1994).

    Vision

    All students from all sorts of backgrounds are entitled to be given the opportunity to learn

    and teachers are the source of their academic success. Effective teachers are the ticket into their

    future. With a harmonious, supportive, and safe classroom, each student can perform to their full

    potential. Then all of the strategies and practices will follow as a tool to help teachers provide an

    engaging and motivating classroom that keeps students wanting to learn even more.
