Abstract

Teacher training traditionally focuses on theories and philosophies of education, the epistemology of the practice. This research focuses on the ontological component of becoming a teacher, focusing on narrative inquiry, specifically storytelling, through the lens of auto ethnographical exploration. Through the professional and personal experiences of the researcher a higher understanding of self, and one's educational philosophy, is reached.
