My teaching philosophy revolves around the idea of reconceptualism, which is the idea that current educational paradigms are not fully aligned with the needs of students. This means that I focus on student-centered and student-driven educational goals. How do you help students who are struggling with reading comprehension? Many times students struggle with reading comprehension due to a lack of reading strategies, word lexicon, or root-word understandings. The most important thing is to then determine what the student needs the most help with, and then build on their abilities from there. How would you help a student get excited/engaged with a subject that they are struggling in?
