My Goals for the Class: | 1. Help students develop self-confidence, independence, interpersonal skills and problem-solving abilities while collaborating with their peers. |
2. Encourage a commitment to be kind, helpful, responsible, and respectful to others in my classroom. | |
3. Foster a true sense of inquiry and a love of learning in math. | |
Why I Love Teaching: | My mother taught for 42 years at the elementary level and I always looked up to her and thought that I would one day want to teach the way she taught to so many of her students. I love working with children and I especially enjoy teaching math. I find teaching very rewarding because I get to see my students succeed academically as well as, socially at the junior high level setting. |
