My passion is teaching history, and I feel incredibly satisfied when a lesson goes

well. I love teaching because I believe that it is more than just a job that instructors,
but it has a significant impact on the lives of many students. When I open the
classroom door in the morning, I go into a universe of potential and a place where
learning and development collide. I like being able to give back to society, and
teaching gives me a great chance to do so. This comprehension embarks on a
voyage of self-discovery and professional development by delving into the reflective
waters of my teaching.

The primary concepts in my teaching philosophy revolve around the roles of


teachers and 21st century teaching practices. As a teacher, I have a set of visions
for my class and the teacher I should be. My primary goal is to help students achieve
through assessments. As a teacher I am required to behave and uphold to the
standards expected of a teaching professional can be understood from a variety of
Sace material, which, in my opinion, best supports the teaching profession. I want to
be known as the instructor who not only understands the material well but also
creates a welcoming and inclusive classroom environment. I want to be known as
the teacher that makes studying and teaching engaging and pleasant while also
encouraging critical thinking skills.

As a history teacher, I want to provide a learning atmosphere where learners feel


comfortable expressing themselves and taking chances with their education. While
my philosophy is clear and concise, it addresses a wide range of topics. Its focus on
the demands of the individual is tempered by the idea that diversity must be
welcomed in the classroom and that everyone must have the same opportunity to
speak in this same environment. It offers me a great deal of being Lifelong Learning
and Professional Development in teaching. In order to satisfy each learner's
requirements and prepare them to become accepting, productive members of
society, it is important to maintain a balance between valuing all aspects of their
social experience and ensuring that the classroom is secure, and tolerant of
difference. I use a constructivist approach to teaching which places a strong
emphasis on my learner’s gaining knowledge through discovery The goal of every
period I teach is for learners to learn by making mistakes, working through issues,
and coming up with creative solutions.

Teaching and learning history involve exploring and understanding the past,
analysing historical events, and drawing connections between the past and present.
In order for the learners to achieve academic success in history Read primary
sources, engage with secondary sources, visit historical sites, watch documentaries
and films and during teaching and learning and by conducting research and
synthesizing information, learners can deepen their understanding of history.

Course Resources will circulate around the course curriculum and caps document
which is followed handbook original sources relative sources plans for Multimedia.
My Lessons plan gives an overview of the subject and how it relates to the course at
the beginning of each class. During the lesson I ask challenging questions to
encourage critical thinking and classroom discussion and the class will use Group
activities to promote active participation and engagement, include group activities
like role-playing games, debates, and cooperative projects. Visual assistance to aid
pupils in visualizing historical concepts and events, utilize timelines, maps, and
photographs. I will give learners essays in which they must evaluate historical
events, topics, or personalities and provide evidence to back up their claims.
Create presentations to assist students in honing their communication and
presenting abilities, assign presentations on historical subjects or research projects.
Offer case studies which provides students historical case studies to examine,
analysing and judging the decisions and events importance. Have learner
involvement in class discussions and their critical thinking skills when it comes to
historical subjects. Create precise rubrics to help students understand what is
expected of them for assignments and to help you. in evaluating their work.

Effective history teachers possess a combination of educational, commutation skills,


classroom management interpersonal, and subject-specific skills. After every lecture
learner will examine the social, economic, and political elements of a historical
period. As an educator, my ethical and professional position is founded on the
principles of self-awareness, which helps students identify their strengths,
weaknesses, and preferred methods of learning. When students collaborate, an
engaging and encouraging collaborative learning environment is created, giving
them the tools they need to excel in school and beyond. equity, morality, student-
centeredness, and ongoing development. I saw that children's prior knowledge and
understanding varied greatly, which is why individualized instruction is essential. In
the future, I want to provide more support and enrichment opportunities to cater to
the different needs of each student. I promise to live by these principles and to serve
as an example for my learner's future.

In my opinion, an integrated strategy to raising the bar for education in South African
schools must include developing a warm, welcoming environment, utilizing cutting-
edge teaching methods, and strengthening relationships with parents, teachers,
students, and the community. Doing so fosters a vibrant educational system that
provides students with the resources they need to succeed, prepares them for
challenges in the future, and ensures they receive the best education possible.
Never forget that since education has the capacity to transform, investing in
education now is an investment in everyone's future.

Me being a history teacher is a career decision inspired by a combination of my


personal passion, an urge to teach and motivate, and an understanding that
knowledge of the past plays an important role in influencing the present.
