My Educational Philosophy

My educational philosophy is relatively simple.

I believe that educators should motivate their students to learn as much as possible from them. To do this, they should make their lessons as interesting, relevant, and enjoyable as possible. When lessons are fun, they don't seem like school anymore. When they are relevant, students see why they are important. Whey they are enjoyable, students like school.

Instilling a growth mindset is also important. A growth mindset exists when students look at failure as a challenge rather than a deficit, they see their abilities as something that can be improved, and they persevere in the face of difficulty. Instilling a growth mindset can be accomplished by teaching students that effort is valuable rather than intelligence or talent. For more information, see the book "Mindset: The New Psychology of Success" by Carol S. Dweck, Ph. D. or visit Mindset Online
