, TPS3706 ASSIGNMENT 3 2025
Write down your teaching philosophy. What are your beliefs about teaching and
learning? Include aspects such as why you want to be a teacher; what subject
and age group you would like to teach and why; how you believe learners learn
best (refer to learning styles found in a modern classroom); how you believe
teaching should take place (refer to teaching strategies and methods used in a
modern classroom); why you believe teaching is a vital profession in South
Africa; and how you believe you can make a difference.
My Teaching Philosophy
I believe that teaching is not just a profession, but a calling that plays a vital role in
shaping the future of society. I aspire to become a Life Skills/ Language Teacher for the
senior phase (Grades 7–9), as I am passionate about the subject and its relevance to
learners' everyday lives. Geography helps learners understand the world around them,
think critically, and make informed decisions about environmental and social issues. I
want to be a teacher because I believe in empowering young minds and creating a
positive impact on their academic and personal development.
I believe that learners learn best when they are actively involved in the learning process.
Each learner is unique, and modern classrooms must cater to various learning styles
visual, auditory, kinesthetic, and reading/writing preferences. And use a variety of
teaching aids and interactive tasks, such as visual maps, videos, group discussions,
and hands-on activities, I can address different needs and help all learners thrive.
