My teacher’s philosophy: Each student is a capable learner; they can achieve and succeed. The key is to provide a positive environment where everyone belongs; all children’s ideas are valuable and included in our curriculum; equity and equality exist. Listening to children’s voices and interests. Identifying their strengths is vital to building a solid curriculum with high expectations where everyone can learn and participate (Australia teacher standard 4. Supportive and safe learning environment). (AITSL, 2017)
I strive to build trusted relationships with students and their families; open communication is essential to address students’ needs; Students can feel supported, valued, and part of a community in a classroom where communication is respectful, transparent, considered, and sensitive to their various needs. (Lyons et al., 2013, p. 44).
I model lifelong learning, support inclusion, value respect, honesty, and empathy, and we help each other to understand the world better and become active learners and civic citizens. I strive for a student-centered approach, where every class focuses on real-life situations and how to apply those concepts in different contexts. I Embrace differentiation, problem-solving, creativity, and critical thinking. Furthermore, embracing technology is vital for students to succeed in the 21st century and understand how technology works and what we can create with it. (ACARA, 2024)
I implement Vygotsky’s social theory ZPD, where learners learn through social interactions with peers and knowledgeable others, working in groups, collaborating, thinking, and pairing (Vygotsky & Cole, 1978).
Maintaining or reinforcing a positive classroom is vital in today’s learning environment. Research has revealed that a positive classroom environment can increase student engagement and motivation. Students who feel supported and safe can participate actively in class and take risks in their learning. Similarly, a supportive classroom environment improves academic performance. Studies have revealed that students are more likely to perform well academically when they feel respected and valued. Further, a positive classroom environment can enhance students’ confidence and self-esteem, increasing their willingness to participate and share their ideas. Lastly, Positive reinforcement can reduce behavioral problems as students understand the norms and expectations stipulated by the teacher.
