Teaching gives me a strong sense of purpose and satisfaction. Being able to look back on my day and know that it had definite, meaningful purpose, and positively influenced the youth is my first reason for wanting to be an educator. I know that teaching is what I was born to do, and treat each day as a tangible representation of “living out my dream.” I see the purpose and mission of education clearly and am committed to providing all children with an equal opportunity of attaining a quality education. Positively influencing the youth gives me instant satisfaction and purpose. I am grateful each day that I get to work with students: “good” days and “bad” days. Teaching appeals to my natural desire for change as well. No day is the same in this career. I welcome change daily and take delight in learning something new each day.
I value the youth and enjoy working with them to reach their highest potential. I think that working with teens is the most exhilarating environment. I enjoy students’ energy, passion and fresh interpretations on all aspects of life. I feel like there is much that I can learn from them, and I welcome their insights ardently. During these formative years of middle school and high school, students are navigating their minds and the world around them. They are our future and should be valued and facilitated to become successful, self-actualized individuals. I work diligently to ensure that our future generation is motivated, successful, thoughtful and satisfied with itself.
I love my content areas. I pursued an education in English and French for a reason. I love learning more about each subject and approach language acquisition as both an art and science. I am passionate about the study of each subject. I am an enthusiastic learner and hope to instill that in my students through example. If I am not enthusiastic about what we are learning, then how can I expect my students to be enthusiastic about learning it?
