Philosophy Of Education

Education is a living organism. It grows and changes. To survive, we have to adapt with the changes. Believe that students should be critical thinkers not test takers. Innovators, not automations. Believe that students should be given sufficient tools to help them increase their problem solving abilities. Believe that students should learn to read, analyze, and emulate. Finally, believe that every student has raw potential embedded inside him or her. It is the responsibility of a veteran teacher to distill this raw potential.
