Topic > Philosophy of Teaching Reflection Paper - 1015

As I wish to become a teacher in the near future, I definitely want to promote and apply my understanding of these two concepts as a teacher. As I mentioned in one of my weekly reflections, when knowledge is combined with love, it allows students to better understand those around them and become aware of the issues and problems that surround them and that surround the world. Love is a concept that is often overlooked in the education system, especially because educators tend to focus on the knowledge aspect and its importance. When love is combined with knowledge, it allows students to learn, grow, and transform as individuals. Furthermore, the love that a teacher expresses towards others can ultimately reflect on students, thus transforming their knowledge about those around them and applying that knowledge to the real world and learning to love and accept those around them.
