I think it is only appropriate to discuss Educational Psychology, being so that I am an Early Childhood Education Major. With that being said, educational psychologyseeks to understand how teachers instruct and how people learn. Teachers and children, included. Educational psychologists are interested in enhancing learning and improving teaching in order to create a better learning environment, as well as a better teacher-parent, teacher-student relationships. This field of psychology has been used to help me better understand why people are the way that they are, and also assisted me in helping me solve a problem in my intended career track by demonstrating the importance of teachers, how they teach, how they adapt to student’s needs, and the many different types of education one can have a career in. For example, I’m a two-year-old teacher, but I work with developmental therapist every day. I also have three children in elementary school, so I work with their teachers on a regular basis as well.

One of the subfields in psychology that has had an impact on me is Transformational Psychology. As we age we sometimes experience a major shift in the way we approach life. Our behavior can change for the good or bad, and we need the find out why. Our counselors can guide us to realize that our thoughts can influence our reality. Transformation Therapists specialize in helping people going through a tough life change. This would help me solve real-life problems, if I were in therapy I would choose Transformational Therapy, My status is I am currently retired, I should be excited, but I am still adjusting, everything has changed employment, salary, insurance, and how others see you. Now I have the title of being a senior citizen, so I have made some physical changes to adjust my lifestyle. I have dyed my hair, and I am dressing more vibrant to feel younger. this works for me now however, I don’t know what the future holds.
