Imagine a classroom as a garden. How would you like to work in it the most?

Select an answer:

I would plant various seeds and eagerly wait to see what would grow from them. I would observe nature and wait for it to address me on its own. I would try to pull out the weeds before others see them. I would give the students their own space to create the garden in their own way. I would ask the children what they imagine in this garden.

When a child draws something unusual, your first thought is:

Select an answer:

"Interesting... I wonder what he/she means by that?" "How could I help him develop that?" "It will be difficult to explain to the parents." "It is an expression of inner freedom." "Maybe it expresses something about me."

If you had to teach children something without words, what would you convey to them?

Select an answer:

I would act quietly and wait to see what they notice. I would show them the rhythm or pattern with my hands. I would draw on the board without explaining. I would create a situation that would provoke them to react. I would leave and give them space to figure it out themselves.

Imagine that a child asks you a question to which you don't know the answer. How do you respond?

Select an answer:

I will tell the truth and invite us to explore that question together. I'll try to turn the question into a game. I respond with what I assume they want to hear. I will assess whether it is the right time to respond. I'll ask him what he thinks about it.

What does a mistake made by a child during learning mean to you?

Select an answer:

A signal that something is learning in a new way. Opportunity for a conversation. The mirror of my method. Something that deserves exploration. Interference that needs to be directed.

When you imagine an hour full of energy and unexpected ideas, what do you feel?

Select an answer:

Enthusiasm – those are the most vivid moments. Slight tension – how to manage it all? Pleasure – the children are engaged. Confusion – what if the point gets lost? Inspiration – I learn from it too.

What space do you envision when thinking about the development of children's creativity?

Select an answer:

A studio where experimentation is allowed. A forest full of paths that children choose. A workspace where there is order as well as freedom. A quiet corner where it is possible to dream. An open stage where anyone can perform.

If you could be an animal that inspires children in the classroom, what would you be?

Select an answer:

Owl – a silent observer and a wise guide. Dog - loyal, playful, and protective. Cat – independent, yet perceptive. Dolphin – intelligent and communicative. Butterfly – fragile, colorful, and free.

How do you perceive chaos in the creative process?

Select an answer:

As a natural part of the journey. Like something that needs to be gently guided. As a challenge to be mastered. As part of children's energy. Like a mirror of my own inner setting.

Which of these statements best reflects your approach to learning?

Select an answer:

Children are my travel companions, not passengers. Learning is a共同探索, not a lecture. Sometimes less guidance is more. Every child has their own time and way. Questions are more important than answers.
