Thus, as a non-native speaker I can emphasize with the struggles...

My teaching philosophy is as follows: As teachers, we provide a catalyst for learning by making information proportionate, understandable, and applicable to students of different learning styles. A teacher must have the requisite passion for teaching but also have the ability to customize a lesson plan or lesson objective for the students that she or he is teaching. An effective teacher has the ability to teach material to auditory, visual, read/write, and kinesthetic learners to...
