To my mind, a teaching philosophy elucidates a teacher’s values and beliefs concerning teaching. Teaching philosophy is often an amalgamation of methods we studied in college or graduate school and lessons learned during any professional experience since then. It varies from teacher to teacher. Various strategies can be used to teach the students.
It may be through both direct and indirect measures. Direct measures may include homework, quizzes, exams, reports, essays, research projects, case study analysis, and rubrics for oral and other performances.
I plan the lessons only after having at least an intro session with my students.

My primary aim is for my students to take control of their education. I consequently witness my role as one of the mentors and guides. Socrates, the Greek philosopher, appeals to me; for this reason, much of my teaching takes the form of Socratic questioning. The Socratic Method is beneficial because it promotes students’ engagement with the course material by fostering critical thinking and reflection.
