My teaching philosophy centers on the belief that every child has the potential to learn and grow. As an educator, I am committed to discovering each student's unique way of learning and tailoring my approach to meet their needs. By using strategies for information retention and fostering a positive learning environment, I aim to be a beacon of inspiration, encouraging their growth. I consider aiding students in developing positive self-knowledge to be a crucial aspect of this process, empowering them to become lifelong learners and confident individuals. Through empathy, patience, and dedication, I strive to create a transformative educational experience that equips students for success in both academics and life.
Project Based Learning (PBL)
At Saldivar, we use the teaching method of Project Based Learning, or PBL, to help students learn better. A project motivates students to gain knowledge, and they remember it longer. Projects give students the chance to apply the skills they learn in school to personally relevant and real-world situations. Our Scholars learn skills in PBL such as how to think critically, solve problems, work in teams, and make presentations. These skills will help them succeed in the future, both in school and in today’s work world.
