Let me preface this by saying I just created this blog so I certainly hope this works and I did this right. I am just learning about this blogging creation.
When we started discussing our favourite teachers my favourite teacher easily sprang to my mind. I shared with my classmates that my favourite teacher had the qualities of caring, humour, kindness, skill, patience, and compassion, to name just a few. She seemed to love her job and her students and always made me feel very important to her. I was impressed by her and inspired to be a teacher by knowing her. She was truly a great teacher.
I intend on being a teacher like her and hope that I will inspire my students as she did me and so many others. I believe in order to do this I must present myself in a professional prepared manner but at the same time allow my students to get to know me as a person; flaws and all. I think it is important to be able to relate to your teacher in some manner and I want to know the children I teach in a more personal in depth manner. This not only will help to create that much needed bond but will also help me to know how to teach to each of their unique abilities. Some of the ways I hope to do this is to keep my classroom welcoming and fun. I will have time everyday for sharing and give everyone a chance to be heard. In essence, I won't be the only one talking or teaching. I hope to always stay on the edge of what is new and exciting in learning and inspire my students with this knowledge as well as coming up with some unique ideas of my own. All in all I want my students to feel that we are on a journey together and that we will have some fun and all be successful along the way!
