Professional Development
Adaptability.
I have the ability to develop relationships with students. Patience, caring and kind personality, dedication to teaching. Engaging students in learning.
“I decided to become a teacher because of my high school Philosophy teacher Mr. G.R.S. His students really responded to his teaching style and it completely changed the way that I saw the world. He treated us like mature and intelligent individuals and was able to impart his passion for the subject matter into the curriculum. He provided a framework for the students to lead discussions and critical analysis of abstract philosophical and existential questions that really engaged all of us. He was a fantastic teacher and inspired me to pursue teaching.”
“I would like to work as an online tutor because of the excellent reputation it has for academics and quality of education.
Students are challenged to push themselves and the online program gives students the opportunity to succeed. It is also well known that the parents are active in their children’s education and I believe that is one of the most critical aspects of a successful education. It is also well known that the teachers here are passionate about what they teach and it shows with performance and test scores.”
Everyone has a different teaching style and students react differently to different styles. “I think that students look for passion and credibility and can easily see when one or both are present or absent. Teachers have different styles, but the passion and drive of a teacher is essential. Teaching is a difficult job, but it is also one of the most important. Students need to know that you are working hard, expect them to do the same, and will grade them fairly while guiding them through the critical thinking. This will allow the students to assess their own requirements. “I think that teachers need to have patience, flexibility, and self-discipline to be successful. Teaching can be difficult and frustrating, but it is extremely rewarding and it takes a certain type of individual to excel.
Teachers have to consider state/local testing objectives when creating lesson plans. Students also have different methods of learning and a teacher must be able to adapt their lessons to ensure that students are engaged and able to learn the material.”
Discipline is an important part of maintaining an effective learning environment and largely depends on teaching style, age of students. “I believe that discipline is an important part of the learning process. I approach it by clearly explaining what is expected and what the limits are in my syllabus as well as my initial class orientation. Discipline is the foundation of respect in the classroom and accountability from the students. In my experience, students do not respond well to forceful discipline. They want a framework where they agree to the rules, are respected as individuals, and are held accountable for their decisions and actions.”
Parents are an important part of the learning process and teachers must have the ability to communicate with them in a positive way to help the students be successful. “Parents play a critical role in supporting their child’s education. I feel that it is extremely important to engage them and ensure that a student is set up for success. I provide contact information for parents and encourage them to contact me if they have any questions about their child’s performance or progress. I approach parental communication in a way that puts us all on the same team with the same goal, which is ensuring the success of the student.
Technology has become commonplace as a teaching tool.
