Philosophy of Education I believe that as a teacher I must first believe in my students. When I enter the classroom‚ I will look into the faces of each of my students and see them reach their greatest potential while in my care.

I will dedicate each and every minute of instruction to the investment of the future of my students. While this sounds

Philosophy of Education Thomas Jefferson once said “genius is 1% inspiration and 99% perspiration.” I believe it is this 1% inspiration that we must find‚ as teachers‚ in the youth of today. That way‚ we can give them the motivation to unlock the 99% perspiration inside themselves. After all‚ without that 1% inspiration‚ you have no reason to perspire. Teaching requires a certain kind of patience‚ understanding‚ and willingness to perspire on its’ own. It is not an easy task to uncover that

Comte developed a systematic and hierarchical classification of all sciences‚ including inorganic physics (astronomy‚ earth science and chemistry) and organic physics (biology and‚ for the first time‚ physique sociale‚ later renamed sociologie). Comte ’s emphasis on the interconnectedness of social elements was a forerunner of modern functionalism.
