    Philosophy Paper

    Throughout my life, I have heard people question, “What is the purpose of going to

    school? What is the point of learning all these concepts if we are most likely never going to use

    them in life?” In my family, education means a lot. Receiving a diploma and final transcript of

    grades after graduation is like a stamp to conceal our identity and place in the world. It is the

    foundation and door to all of the possible good jobs to make a decent living out of. As my mom

    has described to me, “Education helps you navigate through life with a higher moral conscience

    than others who don’t receive it.” This includes the practices of quick yet critical decision-

    making skills, coping and handling real-life scenarios, developing various social skills, and more.

    As a teacher, I am determined to have my students develop the same appreciation and

    drive for education as I do. I want them to understand the importance of education with Christian

    principles. It is not a chore, it is a stepping stone to understanding life and its implications. I hope

    to serve as a role model and gain respect from all of my pupils. I am looking forward to

    establishing impactful teacher-student relationships. What I believe is important for teachers is to

    balance the role of being masters of content and “caretakers” of students’ well-being. I want my

    students to understand that I care, especially those who are at-risk and ELL. I trust that my

    teaching strategies will be inspiring, such as: creating small group discussions, research, case

    studies, etc. I am looking forward to seeing the increase in performance and growth that my

    students are receiving in the classroom. I want my dedication and passion for teaching to be
    obvious. After every successful year of teaching, I hope to maintain a sense of satisfaction and a

    calling to continue.

    In addition to this, I will try to enrich the minds of students with cultural diversity and

    make my classroom comfortable for all students. I plan to teach different basics of languages,

    cultural history, dialects, and writing in middle school. The reason is that I believe it is the

    perfect time for students to be culturally aware of what is going on in the world and around them

    since they would most likely be hearing it from their peers. I want my minority students,

    depending on the size, to be comfortable talking in their home dialect if that is what helps them

    to drive their point and communicate clearly. For example, I know I will have students who will

    speak in pidgin English. They could be speaking perfectly in English but switch over to their

    native language if they do not know the English term. Overall, I want my students to respect and

    understand that just because a student has a different dialect than you, does not mean that there is

    an academic advantage or disadvantage for them. Dialects are a unique creation from God that

    allows communication to flourish. Having control of these abilities will prepare them to adapt to

    different environments and people. I hope my students understand and appreciate the beauty of

    language as much as I do.

    In conclusion, I want my students to have an understanding of education and a broadened

    outlook on life. I hope that through my passion for teaching, I will have an impact on my

    students. I want them to walk away with a continuing eagerness and motivational drive to learn

    and advance. I want my legacy and God’s to pour out in their communities and lives.
