Through all of my teaching experiences, I have formed many philosophies about how I think teachers can help both themselves and their students become educationally successful. Each student has his or her own educational needs that must be met in order for the student to reach his or her full learning potential. It is my responsibility as an educator to strive to meet each one of these needs. Teachers who love what they are teaching have the power to inspire students to love what they are learning. Watching your students both in and out of the classroom can teach you so much about what it is they love learning.
Positive reinforcement is a very powerful and successful classroom management technique.
It is both an effective and uplifting method of providing order and creating a positive atmosphere in a classroom. It is an educator's responsibility to find ways to captivate students through creative and innovative lesson plans. These lessons must provide students with individual, whole class, and small group learning opportunities. Students produce quality work when they are provided with purposeful assignments. It is important for educators to make students feel their work is worth more then just a grade.
