Why I Teach

Through teaching I am able to share my passion for learning along with encouraging lifelong learning for my students. I want to be a role model to my students showing them that our imperfections are what make us unique, and even failure can make us stronger together. Learning can be so fun, and I want to emphasize this to my students through the use of unique lessons, activities, and engaging material that will make them stronger academically, and overall as people.

This TED Talk emphasizes the importance of forming strong relationships with your students. Being an educator that students like to be around will make them want to learn. Above all things a good relationship with children is what they will remember and learn the most from. A positive influence is someone every child needs, and I hope to be that for my students!
