Patience is a skill I am actively working on daily by practicing mindfulness, slowing down and remaining present.
I believe in time and with experience I can better lean to understand what it would take to be the right type of effective creator based on the task and needs.
Looking forward to the last few semesters and continued inspiration from the courses that will provide the skills needed to learn the art of becoming a successful teacher.
"The teacher I will become"
The purpose of school is to provide the greatest possible ability for students to learn. I would like to help my students discover more about who they are and help them find out more about who they may want to become. The teaching style that best describes my views on teaching would be Essentialism because it focuses more individual development and the core knowledge of required subjects. I would also say Existentialism because I feel we are responsible for our own life and with that finding our purpose. Each individual is unique, may learn differently than others and this should be considered. I think these two together focuses on the inner and outer part of who we are. The one word that would describe me as a teacher would be “motivator” and one word to describe my students would be “Inspired”. Two roles I also see for my students are Essentialism and Existentialism because it gives a balance to a complete individual when alinged. If someone walked into my classroom, they would see students who are engaged in their active listening and class participation.
Comments : I loved how you noted that part of patience is to slowdown. I need to work more on this. My favorte thing that you explained in about the author page was that you stated you want to help students find who they are. That hit me right in the heart. I am also a huge motivator and thing that is so important as a teacher.
Comments : I too want to be a motivator for my students. Yes, it takes time to learn how to become an effective teacher. The more you experience being a teacher, the more you get comfortable. All the best in your journey. Tracy. PS, I was not able to access your Google slides from my end.
Comments: I agree that it is a teachers job to help students figure out who they want to be. I love they way you set up your page its so cute and easy to read. However, I was unable to look at the google slides. Change the share setting to anyone with a link and it should work. Either way great work! :) - Sydni Harrison
Comments: I agree that helping students fiugure out who they want to be is important! I understand being at a job and not loving it. I have always thought that you should love what you do, not just do what you do to get by. I thought I wanted to be a nurse, and sometimes deep down I still want to do that, however, I just want to be able to help and I loe children (I have two of my own), and the ages that both of my children are at are the fun ages. I also couldn't look at your google slides, but your page was awesome and easy to read! - Samantha Howell
