The Best Parts of My Job

Being a teacher has brought such joy and fulfillment into my life. My favorite aspect is when the students and I learn about one another through the course of the school year. I enjoy seeing my students learn to love and accept one another's similarities and differences. It is my goal for us to feel like a family, to feel comfortable, to feel safe, to feel valued and wanted. I love to see my students support one another as we embark on new learning adventures.
