My philosophy of education is that every student has the ability to learn. Some students learn at a faster rate than others and some students need extra time to complete assignments. Students also learn in different fields. Some students are auditory learners while other students are visual learners. Other students learn by actually doing hands on work with a particular problem to learn a concept.
Every student can learn.
It is up to the teachers as educators to help the students succeed and grasp the concepts so they can succeed at the next level of life.
