As a teacher, I’m patient, adaptable, and clear, focusing on making complex ideas simple and engaging based on learning styles.

I believe in instilling a passion for lifetime learning into my students by being a model lifetime learner through thinking aloud, interacting with the text during reading, and demonstrating inquiry by asking questions. I believe every student can reach their learning potential with high expectations by offering the necessary support, opportunities, and a caring classroom. I also clearly state the learning and behavioral expectations for my class. I believe in teaching students with dignity and providing a fun student-centered learning environment. I ensure that every learner knows they are worthy by listening and caring for their needs. I work hard to create a classroom that celebrates achievements and progress.
