I want to formulate my own philosophy and be better and communicating the truth to my students.

I hope to solidify a personal philosophy of education based in the truth of the Bible, from which I can draw on in all circumstances as I minister to students and help them learn what it means for them to follow Christ in their own lives.

As a Christian educator, I understand that the philosophy that I carry into the classroom informs my instruction as well as my relationship building with my students and colleagues. I hope that the course will build on what I already know to be true, that God’s call for Christian educators is help students create a biblical worldview.

I hope to gain ways to show my Christian philosophy throughout my classroom better. Teaching the content is important but teaching the love of wisdom is much more important because it shows our love of the Savior. Showing the students that in this world you can still stand up for Christianity and for the things of God.

From this course I hope to gain a better understanding of incorporating a Christian philosophy in my classroom. I have all the tools that I need. Our curriculum is outstanding, but like the professor said, ” I don’t remember one math lesson. But I remember the classroom.” I want to be the kind of teacher that remembers this. Having a loving and nurturing classroom environment is that my students will remember, for the good or the bad. I want to grow in the area of seeing my WHOLE student, not just their grades. I want to learn to nurture their whole being and not just nurture them alchemically.
