Diversity is the appreciation for each individual being able to be different from one another. In this world there are no two people who are exactly alike. There are people that are very similar and may appear to be identical, but this is impossible. Not only does it allow us to be our own individual, it allows us to be recognized for our own individual talents, personalities, appearance and the list goes on and on.
Diversity is very important when being looked at from the perspective of teaching. Each student in a classroom learns slightly different, behaves differently, responds to discipline differently and once again the list goes on. As a teacher, it is one’s responsibility to adapt to each student and help them be successful in their own personal way. Without diversity in a classroom there would be many unsuccessful teachers and students which is not what we are working towards. We all want to be successful and see each student be successful in their future endeavours!
