I will work to be a calm teacher who creates a peaceful and supportive environment where students feel safe to learn and grow. My classroom will be inclusive, making sure that every student feels valued and accepted, no matter their background, abilities, or experiences. I will use diverse perspectives, cultures, and ideas in my lessons and classroom so the students can see the beauty in differences. As a teacher who cares for my students, I will build meaningful relationships, so I can support not just their academic success but also their emotional well-being. I aim to be patient, giving each student the time and support they need to overcome challenges, develop confidence and learn perseverance. Above all, my classroom will be interactive, fostering active engagement, collaboration, and curiosity, where every student feels inspired to contribute and grow as a learner. By becoming this teacher and setting up my classroom to show this vision I will be using the educational philosophy of Progressivism and Essentialism. These philosophies match my ideas about good teaching because I believe that every student needs to learn foundational knowledge with hands on learning so they can change the world for the better. In order for them to be successful in changing the world they need to learn by doing, which they will by my interactive classroom.  My students will also learn the basics so they can always know them and build on them as they grow in their academic career.
