Nobody can make you feel inferior without your consent. Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind. Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened.

Constructivism

It is true that how one learns creates a likelihood that they will teach in that way too. But, I also agree that teachers should be open to other teaching possibilities. This creates the "bridge" toward helping children learn in different ways, allowing those who struggle to know they too can achieve that grade they want. The main constructivist approach centers on "people learning while doing". While this may be true for some people, others may prefer by learning while observing. It all depends on the child and what they've grown learning. Teachers need to observe their class, and know the best approach to learning, whether it be the constructivist approach or not.
