Education is a gift. Given strategically, it can be absorbed into each student’s individual character, molding them during their years of crucial development. It creates consciousness about straightforward core subjects like History and Math, but it
challenges ethnocentric perspectives in courses such as World Language and Social Studies. It combats ignorance and advocates for justice. Learning can change the world, resolve financial crisis, send a person to the moon, or even
create a more humane world which advocates for social justice. It is for this last reason that I decided to become a teacher.
Young people are ready to challenge the world and further their
knowledge. Young energy distributes throughout the classroom as individuals
restructure knowledge in textbooks and relate it to their current situation.
They become armed with thinking skills that could affect them for life. They
challenge archaic conventions and attempt to revive the past. How they use their
brain in class will transfer to how they use them in a job, behave at home, and
handle what life circumstances they must face.
As a teacher, I believe it is my job to
supply students with critical information and help them critically think about
our world while questioning our reality. One teacher can change and guide future
generations’ vision of our world. Each student has something unique to
contribute. Helping students learn their attributes and embrace them fascinates
me. Imagining who students will be when they are adults maintains my alertness
and interest in their lives daily. I see them as who they are today, but I
imagine who they will be in the future.
The classroom should be a space for students to reflect about their
future as citizens of our town, city, country and world. It is a training ground
where students practice mindfulness and become conscious of the benefits and
consequences of their actions inside and outside the classroom. The classroom
community will have clear objectives developed and agreed upon by the students
and teacher. Each student should feel like an important part of the classroom
community.
In my particular subject area there are several ways I will shape my
community using the material. I am convinced that the benefits of speaking
another Language should reach each person in our community. Acquiring a second
language allows us to walk in another person’s shoes teaching empathy. Seeing
other perspectives teaches us much about our world and ourselves. Apart from
teaching empathy, acquiring another language at crucial ages aids in brain
development and critical thinking skills. Overall, a person speaking more than
one language will be better equipped for
success.
