A Summary: Philosophy and its Branches
Philosophy is a personal belief why do things exist which can be anchored to other people’s beliefs which could either be of same point or conflicting idea.
Philosophy consists of three branches namely: Metaphysics, the study of questions about existence; Epistemology, the study of knowledge, and it is obtained and assessed; and Axiology, the study of value or worth.
Personal Learning on Philosophy and its Branches: Its Help to the Teacher
A person with philosophy can stand on what he believes in amidst any circumstance, yet a person without any philosophy can be easily persuaded by others to believe in what they believe in. A person with philosophy has a direction to follow; while a person without any philosophy has no certain path to go. A true philosopher must seek answers to his questions and must not stop dwelling on feeding his curiosity about his existence, about the world, about the new things he can learn, and about the worth of all that are either seen or just felt.
As a teacher, my philosophy in education is necessary. It helps me in bridging my content and my students, my content and the society, and my students and the society. Thus, having a philosophy is having a purpose to teach.
My Philosophy in Teaching.
Teaching is never an easy process. It requires time and space. It requires a teacher to master himself as there is a need to master everything he has to teach his students, yet it does not mean explicit teaching in which the teacher feeds everything to students. It requires the teacher REFLEXIVITY, and not hypocrisy. It is a ‘SHOW DON’T TELL’ process like being communicative competent to teach effective communication, being proficient in English to teach grammar and sentence structure, and being a well-read person to teach reading and literature. Thus, teaching is not merely centered on students; but should also focus on who teaches, facilitates, and evaluates- the teacher.
