Objective: After reflecting on a veteran teacher interview, learners will discuss their own philosophy of teaching.
Assume you were given the task to interview a veteran teacher and the questions and answers were stated as shown below.

A. What should be the purpose of education?
B. What should be the content of the school curriculum?
C. Who should control the learning environment?

F. What motivates students to do their best in school?
G. What is your definition of effective teaching?
H. What personal characteristics are possessed by a successful teacher?
