Teaching Philosophy
Utilizing the sociocultural theory (SCT) and the philosophy of progressivism, my perspective on education is that educators and students must
work collaboratively in the learning process until independence in understanding and practice can be achieved. My teaching style promotes assisted
learning while students begin the process of problem-solving. I mentor students closely at first and help facilitate acquirement of knowledge and
skills necessary to care for the health and wellbeing of diverse patient populations. Once students develop confidence and experience, I will begin to
withdraw coaching to promote autonomy and self-motivated learning. My role as an educator is to support and encourage students to gain confidence
in moving toward independence in their professional career. Through mentoring students toward independent nursing practice, educators develop a
foundation of self-sufficiency and reflection essential for continual growth in an ever-changing health care environment.
To do this, I first look at each learner as an individual with a distinctive background that shapes their outlook and understanding. Each person
has perceived strengths and weaknesses that can affect self-confidence, drive, and enthusiasm. I continually look for opportunities to provide positive
feedback, constructive criticism, and affirmation as I believe they are essential for each person’s growth and wellbeing. To support each learner’s
unique perspective and learning styles, I utilize multiple teaching methods including visual and auditory presentations, hands-on opportunities, case
studies, and tea projects.
I also strive to foster a teaching and learning environment that promotes honest and open communication. The learning environment should
present an atmosphere for discussion between the students and educators where opinions and feelings can be voiced candidly. I believe learning is
enriched with debriefing, reflection, and opportunities for constructive feedback. My goal is for students to feel open to sharing their beliefs and
perceptions and comfortable to adapt and grow through their learning process.

stress: Working hard for something we love is called passion.
