Often interviewers or an application for a
position will ask you to describe your educational philosophy. A
helpful guide to get started in writing a statement is offered under Developing
a Philosophy Statement.
In educational philosophy courses, distinct
branches of philosophy with a set of beliefs are often discussed, including progressivism, perennialism,
essentialism, and existentialism. You can relate themes of your
philosophy to these major philosophical positions. Before you go to a job interview, it
is valuable to know if the school district has a driving philosophy or
mission that determines curricular materials and teaching methods.
A readable chapter with philosophy statements
written by K-8 teachers is available from Best Classroom Practices: What
Award Winning Elementary Teachers Do by Randi Stone.
