Personal Statement as an Educator
My personal philosophy of education is based in life-long learning and a learner-centered approach.
I hope to inspire the learner to continue learning throughout their lifespan. Education is empowering and when we feel empowered, inspired and motivated, there is nothing we can't do. A thirst for knowledge can see us through the best and the worst of times.
My approach to education has always been learner-centered. It is not about what is taught, but what is learned. Seeing learners as individuals with lives beyond the educational setting is key. With education, we can see hardships as challenges with solutions that are yet to be found.
