A teacher is more than an educator.  A teacher is a motivator, an encourager, a life lesson provider but most importantly a life changer.  As a teacher I will strive to provide the best education for my students by keeping up with current research and strategies that will benefit the learners in my classroom.  I will establish a safe community that reflects on the life skills that will be taught in class.  Students will embark on a learning experience with me as we explore what the world has to offer, embrace diversity and become better citizens and successful people of the future.
