My teaching philosophy built upon the fact that all students are different individuals and everyone learns in their own unique way. Moreover, they must have a stimulating educational environment. I consider that I am a facilitator and my role in-class activities is to simulate the students to learn. I believe that there are essential elements that are conducive to learning. The facilitator's role is to act as a guide. Learners must have access to hands-on activities; have the opportunity to learn in a safe environment, collaborate to learn, so I try to augment students’ desire to make contributions to team of colleagues, and most important issue in teaching and learning; learning should be contextual. I believe that to foster learning for my students; multiple methods of teaching should be used to satisfy the different learning styles so that no one of my learners are left behind. Learners must be dedicated to lifelong learning. Therefore, I always seek to improve my teaching by focusing on the learning needs of the future that will be shaped by today’s students and seek to be a positive role model for my students.
