To it may concern:

It is with great pleasure that I am seeking to secure an adjunct teaching position within

your school. I believe my instructional abilities, combined with my strong interpersonal

skills and work ethic would greatly benefit your educational program.

I believe that education is the key to success for young and mature students. As a teacher,

I hope to motivate students in ascertaining their inner strengths and abilities and

discovering what truly inspires them. I aim to provide a stimulating learning

environment that encourages students to trust their own opinions, while fostering

confidence in order for students to realize their full potential.

Through my teaching experience thus far, I have found the method of facilitating rather

than dictating to be highly beneficial style of teaching. I have learned that if students

construct their own learning experiences they will not only retain information longer, but

they will also become more confident in their abilities. Being devoted to this assertion

confirms that I have made the right career choice for myself. I love working with college

students and will continue to strive to be a positive influence in their lives.

I have come to realize how vital education is in the preparation for college students to

achieve success in all endeavors set before them. I hope to instill a love for learning and

a desire for constant knowledge within each student.

The classes I am currently teaching are: Introduction to Business, Introduction to

Computers, Micropackages better known as (Microsoft Office), Keyboarding and

Information Warfare and Security.

Please contact me at your convenience to set up a meeting so that we may discuss in

greater detail how my qualifications would best meet the needs of your educational

program. Thank you for your time and consideration.

Sincerely,

Jaletha Staley - Stewart

My Teaching Philosophy – Jaletha Staley - Stewart

I attempted to find a quote that would some how easily and quickly sum up my

feelings regarding teaching and education. Instead, I found several different quotes all

of which struck me as significant and true...

"The beautiful thing about education is that no one can take it away from you" B.B. King

"A teacher affects eternity; he can never tell, where his influence stops." Henry B. Adams

"The whole art of teaching is only the art of awakening the natural curiosity of young

minds for the purpose of satisfying it afterwards." Anatole France

"To teach is to learn twice." Joseph Joubert

"He is to be educated because he is a man, and not because he is to make shoes, nails, and

pins." William Channing

"All who have meditated on the art of governing mankind have been convinced that the fate

of empires depends on the education of youth." Aristotle

"Life is a succession of lessons, which must be lived to be understood." Ralph Waldo

Emerson

I hold several beliefs that will help to guide me in teaching. These beliefs form the basis

of my philosophy of education. My philosophy is based on respect, trust, and classroom

community. From there I believe that instruction should be functional and individualized.

I also believe that students should be given equal opportunities and be placed in settings

that work best for them. My beliefs extend into the necessity for a solid discipline system

and assessment processes. My philosophy also includes responsibilities I have as a

teacher to my students and ways that I can effectively motivate my students to do their

best.

Foremost, I believe that it is essential to be respectful as a teacher. Each student

deserves the utmost respect despite any differences or difficulties they may have.

Respect is the first step to happy students and a productive classroom. Not only is

respect conductive to classroom productivity, it also just makes everyone feel better.

When you show your students respect, they will give you the same respect back and will

follow your lead and instructions. When you demonstrate respect to students, they will

learn through observations the appropriate way to treat their classmates and teachers.

With respect, students will be able to speak their minds without fear of being made fun

of. When allowed to speak their mind freely, students begin to learn about one another

and both their similarities and differences. Learning about differences promotes respect

and understanding. Respect leads to trust between teachers and students.

I believe that trust is also essential in the classroom. When your students trust

you, they know you will not ask them to do something that isn’t worthwhile and will be

willing to try what you ask them to. Trust also helps students to learn that they can work

together and reap major benefits. When there is respect and trust in the classroom, it will

become more than just an area that students learn, the classroom and the people within it

will become a community.

I believe a classroom community is indispensable. In a community, students

benefit both academically and socially. Working together allows students to share ideas,

check one another’s work, and tutor one another thus benefiting their academics. This

sharing also increases social skills because students need to communicate with one

another. A community can be supported by class meetings in which students share their

feelings about certain situations, work together to establish rules and expectations, and

resolve conflicts. A community teaches students functional skills that can use in

everyday life.

I believe that students should only be taught functional skills. I see no point in

filling students’ heads with information that they cannot use outside of the classroom.

Students with exceptional learning needs already have difficulties in learning and require

extra attention and time. Why waste precious time to teach useless knowledge? The

skills that students learn should be useful to them in any situation. These skills, therefore,

should also be easily generalized. Functional and generalized skills provide students with

bountiful choices and possibilities when they are working, playing, or learning.
