Teaching Math Philosophy
My goal is to make math attainable, interesting and relevant in an interactive way. Engaging the students by posing inquires that would provoke the students in to a lively discussion. My focus is on facilitating an understanding and the student’s development as we analyze and resolve challenges.
Math is more than arithmetic. It builds critically thinking minds in an organized manner while developing their analytical skills. As a math teacher, I will be fostering individuals that will be capable of solving today’s problems and tomorrow’s challenges.
in the classroom, I am looking forward to implementing various learning techniques. Inquiry based learning driven by student discovery and course material sharing is a great way to enact a peer-to-peer learning environment. These techniques combined with an augmented traditional problem-solving method will help student’s development.
Communication is a key component to learning. Applying mathematics is one part of our real life work environment. It is important to be able to communicate in a clear and concise manner. Peer-to-peer learning is crucial in improving the student’s communication skills while increasing student engagement and inclusiveness as they analyze data in an organic fashion.
Through differentiated instruction and assessment, each student will be accommodated in their learning style. In a flexible and organized manner, meeting the student’s preferences, I will continuously assess the students in order to adjust to them in the ultimate goal of maximizing their growth as a learner.
Exposing students to real life math examples by having them choose their topics is important. This captures their interests while increasing their curiosity. In addition, this illustrates to them that math lives all around us on a daily basis. It’s real, not only theoretical. In this process, we will encourage learning from mistakes as part of the process.
My ultimate task is to develop their passion for solving problems. I would like students understand the conceptual understanding along with the procedural understanding of applied mathematics. Having the student understand that learning math is gradual, takes time and builds to a far deeper understanding and appreciation of the beauty of mathematics.
