Martinez, Milagros

Education is constantly evolving and the standards that are intended to regulate teaching call educators today to face a wide range of overall ideas that merge to advocate educational improvements. Although the large-scale of methods and theories are important for instruction in all learning venues, I am aware that teaching entails a great opportunity to impact every partaker and I that I must take this chance as an instance to make a contribution in our society. I believe that as an educator, my goal is to guide students through meaningful experiences that can assist each apprentice in meeting their fullest potential during their learning experience. It is my objective that all partakers are aware of their individual value and of their potential, so they can give for a better society and they can reflect full responsibility in their process and product regardless of their backgrounds and experiences.

Each student is unique and this uniqueness is crucial. We should be observant to each need because it is vital that teachers enrich each setting in all areas while achieving competence and performance. Also, we need to pay attention to the wide range of standards if we are to reach excellence and high values of performance. Within this process, I must reach diversity and extent to provide opportunities for authentic learning and inquiry. Also, I believe that emergent situations are learning opportunities. The student's role is to progress individually through instruction and to increase capacity to a maximum level of achievement and I believe that the teacher is a facilitator that delivers instances to find answers to questions, to construct knowledge, and to discover individually and collectively. I consider essential to provide occasions to reinforce the lesson, to practice the skills, to enrich the experience of all partakers, and to allow for authentic learning activities that stimulate learning and foster further desire to learn. It has been proven that an enriched learning environment that includes hands-on, in groups, problem solving, research, writing, and other intuitive tasks stimulate the right hemisphere of the brain. Also, providing learning environments have proven scientifically to be effective in the classroom and motivates the partaker’s own way of learning at all levels.
