My Philosophy of Education

            My philosophy of education is of the progressive orientation. It is my belief that while it is important for kids to learn the essential skills that will help them function in the world, the classroom is also a place for individual growth and exploration. I believe that the key to a successful classroom is to get to know your students, work to satisfy their individual needs, and create fun and interactive lessons. Learning should take place in a mutually caring  and respectful environment in which students are given plenty of freedom and are able to develop a sense of belonging and self worth. Ultimately, the classroom is a place where children should be challenged and supported as they develop into unique human beings.
