My Philosophy
I believe that every human being has a great potential to perform, noble faculties to cultivate, a vast destiny to accomplish. The teacher has to provide relevant, pertinent, correct, and useful information to the student that will allow him/her to apply it in similar or related situations that they will encounter.

The Theory Of Multiple Intelligences was proposed by Howard Gardner in 1983 as a model of intelligence that differentiates intelligence into various specific (primarily sensory) modalities, rather than seeing it as dominated by a single general ability.
