Assistant Teacher at SK Intercultural Association
We see more and more immigrants in Canada and not all of them happen to speak or fully understand the English language. By working at SK Intercultural Association I will be attempting to help all these individuals learn English and get accustomed to how things run in Canada. Since I am quite social and can get along with almost anyone I believe I’ll be able to work well with the teacher and the students. Moreover, I also happen to speak Arabic and Urdu and so if we have any foreign students who speak these languages, I will be able to help them understand things a bit better. However, I am very shy and often question everything I do. By working as an assistant teacher, I hope to grow more confident

    Culturally Relevant Pedagogy Summary

    Often times in education, there is a disconnect between the curriculum being taught and the reality of the daily lives of the students. As expressed my numerous leaders in minority communities, including Howard University graduate Dr. Ta-Nehisi Coates who authored the book Between the World and Me, the content stressed in the school setting is viewed as far less valuable in urban areas than the lessons taught by the streets. For many students living in urban communities, survival of this concrete jungle is crucial, while all other subjects become secondary. Dr. Coates explains that although he felt personally connected with one or two of his teachers, he like many other students who grow up near or in poverty stricken communities, felt the…

    Importance Of Assimilation To The Culture Of Education

    Students go through changes throughout the process of achieving an education. Some have drastic changes made in their lives while others see slight changes. When people think about how education changes them as a person they tend think of the common transformations, which include: gaining knowledge, having more opportunities and having a better income. But there is more than that; education is powerful enough to allow a person to become assimilated into the culture of education and language, gain the ability to have their own stance, and become selfish. When students obtain an education there is the possibility they can become a partially new person.…
