My Philosophy of Education

My philosophy is that an education not only involves the mind but the body and the spirit. All educators strive to educate their students to achieve academically, but as a physical education teacher I believe the body needs to be educated as well to be healthy. The education of the spirit involves helping a child to achieve his/her full potential by instilling values such as treating others the way you want to be treated and learning to put others first. I was fortunate to have had a few very special teachers who passionately touched my life and whom I’ll never forget. It was those few teachers whose teaching styles I admired and respected. I have chosen to include some of their philosophies as my own. My philosophy of teaching is to have fun, teach with passion, and show I truly care and motivate and inspire my students in a discipline environment.
