教育理念
My Educational ideology
■ 传统上，老师担当重要的角色，让学生掌握学科的内容，现今资讯科技发达，学生可以透过互联网搜寻不同的资讯，藉此建构知识，这是否意味著老师的角色将会被电脑取代，不能对教学作出贡献?
Traditionally, teachers have played an important role to help students understand the content of different subjects. Nowadays, with the development of information technology, students can surf internet for information and learn on their own. Does this mean that the role of teachers will be replaced by computers, with little to contribute to students’ learning?
■ 本人认为，帮助学生建构知识，是老师的教学范围之一，但培养学生的德性和群性方面，更是重要的范畴。如果学生缺乏了解难能力、正确的价值观和沟通能力，他们的五育就不能得到均衡的发展。五育是指德、智、体、群、美，每个范畴都担当了重要的角色，影响学生的全人发展。有见及此，本人希望学生的群育和德育得以充分的发展。
In my opinion, instilling knowledge to students is just one of many jobs of teachers. What is more important is to help cultivate students' virtue and social relationship. If students lack the ability to solve problems, be devoid of good values and communication skills, their personal value cannot be developed. Five of the most treasured personal values are morality, intelligence, health, social relationship and inner beauty. Each category plays an important role and affects the their whole person development. Therefore, I hope that students' social relationship and moral education can be fully developed.
■ 首先，培养学生的群性发展，就要透过社区本位教育。以社区议题为开端，可以让学生直接思考议题背后的根本概念。透过社区本位教育，例如：参观社区设施、名胜古迹、认识有关服务机构等活动，不但可以加深学生对周遭环境的认识，而且还可以培养他们对社区的归属感。在不同的户外活动中，学生可加强同学之间的沟通，有助于他们的群性发展。
Firstly, one of the ways to cultivate students' social relationship is through community-based approach. Starting with community issues, students can think about the basic concepts represented by the issues. Through community-based education, such as visiting community facilities and historical sites and getting known of the relevant service departments, students not only can deepen their understanding of the surrounding environment, but also develop their sense of belonging to the community. In different outdoor activities, students have chance to improve their communication skill and hence enhance their social relationship.
■ 其次，培养学生的德育发展，就要透过艺术教育。艺术教育的要旨，除了让学生掌握美术知识、创作技巧和作品欣赏的范畴外，还要培养学生领悟美感 ─ 德性，体会到艺术给予他们的感觉，如何透过艺术表达他们的情感，体会爱和关怀，使其身心得到均衡的发展。
Secondly, the development of students' moral education should be related to arts education. The aim of arts education is not merely to enable students to master the knowledge, creative skills or develop an attitude of art appreciation. It is also closely related with the purpose to foster students’ understanding of inner beauty (virtue), to allow them to experience the feeling that art brings to them, to raise their ability to express their emotions through art and through art appreciation to experience love and care. Eventually they can have balanced personal development.
■ 本人投身视觉艺术教育，是以统整艺术达到人格教育为目标。理解艺术作品必先从理解各项文化条件入手，从发掘社区文化开始，寻根探源，明白艺术的独有价值均离不开自身文化由内而外的反思。因此，了解艺术品的内容和背后的社区、文化和思想脉络便成为学习艺术的重要根据。
I devote myself to visual arts education with the goal of integrating arts education and personality education. To know more about art works, we must start with understanding different cultural elements, exploring community culture and identifying historical development so that we understand the value of art is rooted in our own culture. Therefore, it is crucial for students learning art to understand its content and the community features and cultural context.
■ 本人执教时，就是秉承以上的教育理念，藉此培养学生良好的品德和创造力，使他们的五育发展更为完备，这就是本人为教育工作献身的理由。
While being a teacher, I dedicated to cultivating students' morality, creativity and their personal development. This is the reason I devote myself to education in the future.
教学心得
My Teaching Belief
■ 今天，教书的工作已经跟从前不一样，老师同时是「慈母」、「兄姐」、「朋友」甚至是「同学」或「推销员」，我们唯有了解学生，才可能强化他们的学习效能。
Nowadays, teaching is different from it was in the past. Teachers may be ‘mothers’, ‘brothers and sisters’, ‘friends’, and even ‘classmates’ or ‘salesmen’. We have to understand students more so that they can help strengthen their learning efficiency.
01老师陪伴学生
Stay with students
教学十多年来，我一直本着「有教无类、因材施教」的理念在教育学生。每年的学生，他们的学习差异总是不同的。在课堂上，我必须准备不同程度的教材，照顾每个同学的学习需要。
With more than ten years of teaching, I have been teaching students based on their interests. Students are different from one year to another year. I have to prepare teaching materials to cater for students’ learning needs.
学校经常鼓励老师开设各种不同的班，例如「补救教学」、各种「学习辅导」，立意固然良善，相信也确实照顾到许多需要的学生，但是我发现有时老师必须走出教室，脱离老师的角色去亲近学生，才能听得到学生的真心话，再针对他们各自的需要来提供对策。
Teachers would set up various programs to cater for students’ individual needs, such as ‘tutorial classes’ and ‘remedial lessons’. Apart from being a teacher, we must go beyond classroom and get close to students. By doing so, teachers can listen to them and provide suitable measures according to their different demands.
教师不只是在课室讲授知识，现在的学生有太多的管道可以学习知识，他们真正需要学习的是人生的「智慧」和面对社会的「态度」，有些学生只是需要一些在家庭中得不到的关怀的话语，有些则需要在他们即将迷失之前的一句当头棒喝!所以，我的教学理念是从「陪伴」出发，教书多年，我尽可能站在学生的高度和他们对话。
Teachers are not merely to instill knowledge in the classroom. Nowadays, students can learn in different ways. What they really need is the ‘wisdom’ of life and the ‘attitude’ towards society. Some students just need a word of care which they may not possibly get in the family, while others need a ‘slap’ before ‘getting lost’! Therefore, my teaching philosophy is to start from "partnership". I have taught for many years. I try to stand in students’ shoes and talk with them as equally as possible.
02多样化的角色扮演
Play various roles
如果我不是老师，我可能会是一名演员，永远在练习扮演不同的角色;教书后，我才发现「教师」这份工作和「演员」其实相差不远。
If I were not a teacher, I might be an actor, playing different roles on the stadium. After being a teacher, I find that the job of ‘teacher’ is similar to that of ‘actor’.
「教」和「学」是分不开的，我会把自己的笔记借给学生看，让他们参考我的学习方式，也会不吝分享失败的经验，而不只是告诉他们自己以前有多优秀，成绩有多棒。
‘Teaching’ and ‘learning’ are inseparable. I will lend my notes to my students and help them grasp my learning strategy. I will also share the experience of failure, not just tell them how good I have been and how good my grades I have achieved.
另外，以身作则很重要，学生需要一个榜样来陪他们一起走，因此上课需要回答问题或做练习时，我一定会跟着他们一起做，而不只是扮演下命令的指挥官而已。
It is important to set an example. Students need someone to stay with them. Therefore, when students need to answer questions or do exercises in class, I will follow them, not just playing the role of commander who gives orders.
03良好的工作团队
Work in a team
教学成果是一项很难用数字或文字来衡量的事情，学生的成就也不见得是单一位老师的功劳，老师们包括我在内，大家都很努力提升学生的读书风气，尽力营造适合学生的学习环境。每个学生都是我们共同的学生，所有重点科目进度皆相互配合，有问题互相支援，每个老师都是其他人最坚强的后盾。
Teaching effectiveness should not be measured by grades only. Students' achievements cannot be attributed to single teacher. Teachers should try their best in order to improve students’ reading atmosphere and create a suitable learning environment. Teachers of subjects should cooperate together for the betterment of students. If students have problems, all teachers will try to help and give them their support.
04谢谢学生的共同演出
Work together with students
我认为老师的工作，是负责让每个人有机会当主角，上课时不能只注意有反应的学生，每个人都得学着如何挑大梁吸引众人目光，该当配角时如何不喧宾夺主。
What teacher should do is edge each students’ potential and encourage them to be the main character in their own stadium. We can't only pay attention to the responsive students. We should teach our students how to be a star on their own in the right time and how to how to take up a supporting role when appropriate.
经过15年的教学，我逐渐找出较合适的教学策略，以便尽量达到「有效教学」，让学生能够「主动学习」，看到学生的进步及对教学的肯定，即使自己花了许多的时间在教学上，内心还是充满了踏实与安慰，因为一位教师最重要的工作就是要「好好教学」，使老师自己及学生皆能从教学中有所学习与成长。
With 15 years of teaching, I have gradually developed some appropriate teaching strategies which are useful to achieve ‘effective teaching’. Students would be encouraged to learn on their own initiative. While observing students making progress, it is a confirmation of my teaching no matter how much time I have to spend. I am satisfied with the sense of being sure and comfort. No doubt, the most important job of a teacher is to ‘teach well’. But both we as teachers and students can learn and grow together in teaching and learning.
