CONCEPT DISCUSSION
Philosophy is the science of reason. It strives to explore and know the truth with reference to logical
reasoning and observing one's nature. The modes of philosophy vary as reflected in certain periods of time-be
it ancient, medieval, renaissance, or modern.
The modern philosophy of education stresses the value and beauty of knowledge and experiences. A
modern teacher is, thus, led to practice the profession of teaching in order to help students achieve their goals
in life.
As a teacher journeys in his or her profession, he or she is able to develop beliefs which serve as the
foundation of his or her value in practicing the teaching profession.
Creating one's philosophy in education may include the following:
- Beliefs and values to inculcate in the students
- Things that a teacher wants the students to achieve
- Goals and aims of education
- Skills that a teacher wants to impart
- Roles of teachers and students
- Strategies of imparting and facilitating learning
- Manner of assessing the learners
- Anything that may answer the questions, "What do you teach?" and "How do you teach?"
Furthermore, to formulate one's philosophy of education, one needs to balance and blend the mind and
heart.

Philosophy of Education
Inspiring me through her love in teaching and dedication to her job. She believes that the
world will not properly function if there are no teachers. Being a teacher shall be considered
as a previllage, that allow ourself to be one of the stepping stone of our students to reach
their ambition in life.
My own philosophy is based from my own experience. I have seen dedicated teachers,

inspiration form me. I want to be a kind of teacher who value her students and values their
ambition in life. Helping them to reach their dreams and goals in life.

3. How would you work towards fulfilling your own philosophy of education as a future teacher?
In order for me to fulfill my own philosphy: I have to finish my bachelors degree and pass the
let exams first. If im given a license to teach, I would like to apply at a rural area. Students in
this king of place has less previllage to educate themselves due to unmotivation and poverty.
As a teacher, it is also my role to make my students motivated and interested in learning. With
this, I will be able to fulfill my pholosphy as a teacher.
Being a teacher is never easy. To be a teacher needs courage, perseverance and dedication
on teaching the students. This field study was helpful for me as I was able to observe how
teachers teach and on how they value the learing or the future of the children/students.
