My educational philosophy centers on a holistic approach that balances future preparation with personal growth and character development. I view teachers as facilitators and mentors who guide students through their learning journey rather than mere authority figures. While I respect curriculum standards, I believe these should be thoughtfully aligned with student interests through differentiated instruction. I place significant value on hands-on, practical learning experiences over purely theoretical knowledge. In assessment, I favor authentic project-based evaluation that mimics real-world scenarios where students have access to resources, just as they would in professional settings. I see technology as a valuable tool that students should learn to use appropriately rather than an end in itself. My philosophy embraces the diversity of learning styles, recognizing that different teaching methods are necessary for all students to succeed, and I understand that student engagement naturally increases when their interests are incorporated into the learning process. Throughout this educational journey, I believe in the paramount importance of building character, instilling values such as integrity, perseverance, empathy, and responsibility that will serve students well beyond their academic achievements and prepare them to be thoughtful, ethical contributors to society.
Note: I believe in the idea of being a life-long learner so I will continue to polish my philosophy as I continue to learn and gain experience while working towards my goals.
