        美国教师誓词       

        我在此宣誓，我将把我的一生贡献给教育事业。我将履行作为教育者的全部义务，不断改善这一公共福利事业，增进人类的理解和能力，并向一切为教育和学习作出努力的作为和人表示敬意。我将这些义务当作我自己的事,并时刻准备着、责无旁贷地鼓励我的同事们做到这一点。

        我将时刻注意到我的责任——通过严格的对知识的追求来提高学生的智力。即使非常辛苦，即使受到放弃这一责任的外界的诱惑，即使遇到失败等等障碍而使之更加困难，我也将坚定不移地执行这一许诺。我还将坚持不懈地维护这一信念——鼓励并尊重终身学习和平等对待所有的学生。

         为了忠实地完成这一职业义务，我保证做到努力钻研所教内容，不断改善我的教育实践并使在我教导下的学生能够不断进步。我保证寻求和支持能提高教育和教学质量的政策并提供所有热爱教育的人一切机会去帮助他们达到至善。

         我决心不断努力以赶上或超过我希望培养的素质，并坚持和永远尊重一个有纪律的、文明的以及自由的民主生活方式。我认识到有时我的努力可能会冒犯特权和有地位的人，我也认识到我将会受到偏见和等级捍卫者们的反对，我还认识到我将不得不遇到那些有意使我感到灰心、使我丧失希望的争论。但是，我将仍然忠于这一信念——这些努力和对目标的追求使我坚信它与我的职业是相称的，这一职业也是与人民自由相称的。

        在这次大会的所有人的面前，我庄严宣誓，我将恪守这一誓言。

Educator's Oath

I hereby pledge my dedication to the profession of teaching. I accept the obligations and the challenges
associated with guiding students in their learning, always showing for them care and concern. I will encourage respect for all people and will cultivate the discipline and freedom necessary to preserve a democratic way of life. I will champion teaching practices and school policies which promote the learning of every student. I will offer every student the opportunity to learn and to achieve excellence.

I will strive to become a well-informed, ethical and caring decision maker and learner about teaching.
I know that at times my work may be discouraging,but I will remain faithful to the belief that my actions make a difference and that my pursuit of these goals assures my worthiness to be called a teacher
in a society whose future depends on the quality of education.
