    PHILOSOPHY OF EDUCATION
    I believe that all students should be taught with careful attention and in an appropriate fashion in the least
    restrictive environment. My philosophy of education is composed of a mixture of Perennialism and Progressivism. While
    I agree with Perennialisms focus on the teaching of central, timeless ideas and cultivating students abilities to think
    critically through classic texts and examples, I primarily agree with Progressivisms hands-on approach to practical
    knowledge. I believe that knowledge in the classroom must be given practical applications in order for students to
    acknowledge its relevance to their individual lives. I also agree with Progressivisms emphasis on student-centered
    instruction as I believe that students are naturally the center and starting point for instruction.
