A little about myself:
My experience in the world of education has been wonderful so far. My major is elementary education and I cannot wait to be a teacher. I hope to teach third grade but I know I will be satisfied with whatever grade I end up teaching. I have always loved children and have fond memories of teaching my younger relatives different things. I did my first two years of college at Anne Arundel Community College in Maryland. To get my Associates degree I had to complete 45 hours of field experience in elementary schools over the two years I was there. This experience just help me feel more confident that this is the profession for me. I loved being in the classroom and connecting with the students. I loved answering questions for them and helping them understand certain concepts. I cannot wait to have a class of my own.
My Teaching Philosophy

Learning Works Both Ways

In the teacher-student relationship I believe that teachers have as much to learn from their students as they have to learn from us. Students can surprise teachers with new ideas, new solutions to a problem, or new ways of explaining things. Teachers should always have open ears and listen to what the students have to say. Also while the students are learning, teachers can be learning from other sources as well. There are so many conferences and workshops for teachers. These are crucial for learning new teaching techniques and tools.
