The two building blocks of my teaching philosophy are the environment in which learning takes place, the material/tools used. A convivial, positive and motivating environment is crucial for effective teaching and learning. It is equally important to make students enjoy and have fun during the learning process and as such from time to time I do bring in humour into lectures as well as allow students to earn participation credit via various activities and thus express their excitement about a particular topic. Another essential factor in creating a motivating environment is to give a voice to students in class so that they can benefit from peer-learning and also be trained to present their opinions while respecting that of others. Nevertheless I also give due value to the fact that students should adhere to deadlines and produce quality work based on expectations about required performanc

As a teacher I believe it is important to communicate high expectations for the success of all students, regardless of age, race or socio-economic background. I believe all students can succeed. It is often a challenge to ensure that the classroom climate and curriculum is supportive and responsive to all students. No matter what the subject, students should be provided with an academically challenging curriculum that includes attention to the development of higher level cognitive skills. I encourage students to share attitudes, concerns and aspirations. If students have their own views challenged, it encourages the critical thinking and reflective judgment that will serve them well throughout life.

I was not the sharpest tool on the shed. However, what I have noticed is that there is always a mechanic that can sharpen the tool. And my teachers through out my school years have made me a better student. A good teacher will either inspire you and make students great or de-motivate students and be unsuccessful in their field. Every kid has a different way of learning and it is our job to analyze, discover and show students how they can learn better and easier. My method of teaching involves doing lots of practice of the subject until everyone gets it right; all must learn before moving on. Excitement is my biggest tools that I use when I tutor then the teaching becomes easier. A senior in York College and a dedicated tutor, I realized that I want to be in the education field.

I believe any student is capable of learning any subject when they are taught in a gentle and patient manner. It is important to help the student gain confidence with the subject and to build his self-esteem. As the student increases his knowledge and problem-solving abilities his confidence and curiosity will also increase. Learning will become a lifetime pursuit. I have four semesters of calculus, numerous chemistry, physics, engineering, computer science, statistics, finance, accounting, marketing, management, and liberal arts courses.
