Teacher Beliefs

This video is a great example of one teachers philosophy that uses popular culture references to illuminate their points. The most fundamental belief I hold about teaching comes from Friere, "people teach each other, mediated by the world." I believe this is independent of age or background and am always looking for new things to learn from my students. This belief allows me to remember that I don't have all the answers and gives me the ability to work with my students more effectively because I believe that they have just as much capability to share new things with me as I do with them.
