My Teaching Philosophy

As a teacher, our duty is to ensure that all students are being served equitably in their education. Being equitable is ensuring that all students are being given the same opportunity in the classroom. Some students are going to be at a different level than others, and we have to ensure that we are leveling the playing field so those other students can succeed as well.My approach to motivating students is one that aims to understand who they are as individuals, i.e their strengths and weaknesses in my classroom. It can be easy to overlook the potential that students have by blaming their weaknesses or lack of motivation. But I feel that the way to motivate students is to appreciate every aspect of them, religion, language, and ethnic differences. I hope to build a space of safety and love of science that students will want to keep coming back and be rewarding.
