Summary
I have had many experiences that have challenged me and helped me to grow and I am determined to get the job done and learn as much as I can while I am doing it.
Teaching Philosophy:My teaching philosophy is to never stop learning and growing. As an educator it is important to show the students that hard work and perseverance benefit you. The students should be able to know that they are heard and that they are seen by the teacher. They should feel like they have a voice and that they are a very important part of learning.
