313 Words2 Pages

As an educator I need to use my understanding of individual/group motivation behavior to create a learning environment that encourages active engagement in learning, positive social interaction and self-motivation.

    Teachers these days are indubitably facing many challenges regarding their students’ attitudes and behaviours towards learning and managing a classroom. Teachers have an important role to play in creating a positive classroom environment that is conducive to learning, keeping their students engaged and motivated to learn.

    My desire to teach originates from my own personal academic experience. At a young age, I was inspired by my teachers to learn as much as I can, and to use that knowledge to pursue my dreams.

The teachers who had the most positive impact on my academic and personal life were approachable, natural nurturers, passionate about teaching, and had a genuine interest in the lives of their students.
