Good Evening Everyone

Hi My Name is Lily Bordallo I AM A TEACHER !

I am a teacher represents the finality of what is claimed when confronted with the question who are you? The information I intend to discuss and share with you is important because it involves issues that relates to my work as a teacher, and a life long learner seeking to be a “high performing teacher”. The teaching profession has changed with the new technologies, but it faces the same challenges in terms of social, political, economic, and philosophical challenges. My graduate studies with Walden University have shaped my views on teaching, and learning. From the beginning of the program, I have interacted with students, and instructors that I know value making positive contributions to the field of education technology.

I have learned through the opportunity of sharing experiences with graduate students and my instructors that we have a common bond of becoming a “high performing teacher”, being a life long learner, and professional through the search for knowledge. Most importantly, that as educators we have a great responsibility to develop self direction, leadership, and moral ethical values, of the students we teach. Technology will complement the field of education, and because of the rapid development, we will be required to adapt technology changes along the way into the future.

During the graduate program I have sensed a greater change in terms of being aware of beliefs at the core of becoming a professional teacher. My goal is to provide you with enough information to understand my position in regards to the beliefs I hold and principles that have sustained my motivation to be a teacher and proudly claim to be a teacher.
