Example Of A Teacher Personal Statement

Personal Statement

I am a zealous, experienced, and dedicated primary school teacher. My keenness for learning and aspiration for career progression has motivated me to take up master level studies from a world renowned university. It would polish my skills to use reflective and innovative strategies to impart knowledge to the smart generation of the digital era. I believe that foreign qualification makes teachers more confident, deepens their understanding of the pedagogy, and better equip them to facilitate children’s learning process. Since our education system has been derived from the UK and Pakistan being a commonwealth nation, a degree from UK will boosts your credibility manifolds. The quality of UK education is recognised and valued

The Practicum about assessing learning is a highly attractive feature for me in this programme. It is vital for learning to evaluate assessment and use the information to plan lessons according to children’s need and boost their confidence. Having the basic knowledge of child development theories, from the certificate course I hope that this master’s course will further enhance my understanding of the topic. Second, a course that best suits both pre and primary school children was my main concern as, in the formative years each developmental stage is interconnected and most of the brain development happens during this time, it’s important to gain first-hand information and use these theories in decision-making about learning. The opportunity to apply the research in classroom is the key to promote policies that take into account all aspects of child development. Furthermore, the flexibility to choose the masters’ final research topic is an added advantage. It gives you the freedom to suit your needs and preference. Finally, I feel comfortable that the course is also for experienced

I am already experienced in training young teachers and could identify deficiencies in their teaching methods as well as my own repertoire. As means of guidance and training available in the country are insufficient to meet the need of a successful 21 st century teacher, undertaking higher education abroad will help me fill this gap in teacher counselling units available in Pakistan as I plan on starting a consultancy and teacher training institute. Education is the most popular career among women in Pakistan. But for most of them due to cultural, social or religious restrictions it is not possible to access higher education abroad or any training programs. I plan to continue working as a teacher for a year or two. In parallel, I would continue conducting workshops on different teaching issues and teacher counselling, for all of us don’t get the opportunities to get a higher calibre foreign education. I hope to pass on whatever knowledge I have to the newcomers, training them in the best possible way to help them evolve as effective teachers and spread quality education, igniting the passion for teaching in them. Later in professional life, I am planning to completely move into education consulting. I will also endeavour to continue writing poems and making small books for young
