What is your teaching philosophy?
Education is a tool for empowerment. It leads to the opening of eyes and doors. It gives us access to the world around us and the means to understand our experience in it. Education is a journey of self discovery, to finding our inner potential and discovering how to turn our promise into action. Education deepens our humanity, it connects us to the people and places we learn about, it inspires compassion and understanding. It is a means to bettering ourselves and to creating positive change in the world. It is a tool for empowerment, and in my classroom it is my goal to empower each and every one of my students.
