Philosophy of Teaching
The purpose of education is to know what is right to do. Because if not there will be disorder in the world. We need to learn to live together and respect each other because if not then people might fight each other and life will not be very pleasant. Each person has a talent. For example: one person might be better at writing, another at chopping wood. The writer might need the wood for fire to keep warm. The wood chopper might want to read books for entertainment or to learn.
In schools teachers introduce a variety of subjects such as math, science, foreign language. They share knowledge of topics that help kids develop skills such as reading, proper behavior, responsibility, problem solving. The progress of these help them little by little to become smarter adults who know how to communicate with a foreign person; who know how much change someone should receive when buying groceries; who know how often to water plants.
The job of the teacher is to guide the learner to reach close to perfect understanding. A teacher is a person who has plenty of knowledge about a subject and transmits that information to the learner. For successful learning teachers should emphasize a variety of activities that require observation, experimentation, active involvement, and more. Teachers should encourage students to search for the right answer and correct them and give them idea of what they had done wrong.
