AN EMPOWERED TEACHER’S CREED

I BELIEVE in the God-given creative talent to teach, in dynamism unending; and in


perfect self-expression: the orderliness of ideas, the clarity of thought, the sincerity
of feeling, the richness of visualization, and the perfect coordination of learning aids,
communication and action;

I BELIEVE in the internal development and generation of ideas and confidence, in


the vibrancy of personality, in the manifestation of poise, and in the fruitful rewards
of teaching;

AND I BELIEVE that through my God-given power to teach, I will be heard. In


being heard, I will be understood. In being understood, I will be accepted. And
being accepted, I will be followed.

I now become an instrument of change/ the crusader of truth and the “Light of the
World.”

AND SO I AM.
