My personal teaching approach stems off of the idea that in order to successfully learn another language a student must be immersed in it. From day one, I will introduce the English language by using many different teaching tools. Because each student may learn differently than the next, it is best to use many different learning techniques such as visuals, auditory, kinesthetic/tactile and explanatory lessons.
My classroom will
be colorful, but organized, warm and inviting. Students will have clear
expectations of the classroom procedures while also knowing that I care about
them and their education. I will also use opportunities to get to know the
students and their families.
I will be
flexible as a teacher as new situations arise. Using this philosophy I hope to
build and learn many new ways to engage my classroom and become a successful
teacher.
