Educational Philosophy and Student Needs and Expectations

My education philosophy is in pretty close alignment with helping the needs of my students. In my philosophy I stated that I want my students to feel welcome and included in my classroom. I feel that if a student is loved and knows they are supported they will perform better. I also want to be my students friend while pushing them at the same time. I don't want them to be afraid of  me because I don't think kids can learn that way. I feel that students need a firm push in the right direction, and because of this I will expect the utmost respect from my students. They will be treated with respect just as they are to treat others. I want them to learn good social skills so they are productive in the world.

My educational philosophy is in alignment with the national and state expectations because I firmly believe that I can teach children the 'common core' and help them learn in a fun and exciting way. That was one of my goals, to not become one of those boring teachers, but to become one who engages her students and makes them want to learn. I want to empower them to be better people while teaching them new things at the same time.
