Philosophy of Education: Motivation is the foundation of education. Given the right environment, inspiration and support; every child is capable of learning. Children should be part of an environment that promotes opportunities to engage in successful learning experiences. Demonstration and “hands-on” experiences should be provided to promote interest, motivation and overall understanding of the concept being taught. Education is about students making intelligent choices, thinking and analyzing critically, collaborating with others and independently learning from the classroom environment. Every child is capable of learning, and the teacher should serve as a facilitator and a co-learner for the student.
