Section A

This section contains my Reflective Statement on Teaching Philosophy and Accomplishments.

The guidelines for the statement state:

A teaching philosophy is generally a broad statement reflecting the faculty member’s individual approach to teaching and learning as well as a summary of academic credentials.

The statement might include asking the following questions:

• • How do you teach?

  • What do you teach?

  • What are you teaching methods, goals, and strategies?

These questions address your general ideas about teaching. It has been recognized by many educators that the process of identifying a personal philosophy of teaching and continually examining and verifying this philosophy can foster professional and personal growth.
