Summary
I am a 2nd-year teacher eager to make a difference for all students not only in my classroom but around the school. I believe the classroom should be a safe place for all students. A goal of mine is to utilize the knowledge I gained during my first year of teaching to support the learning needs and development of young adolescents. I would love to obtain a lasting career as an elementary school teacher in a school that promotes successful collaborative teaching and progressive technology.
