Setting positive expectations for myself and students helps exemplify my belief that my students will succeed. It is my responsibility as a teacher to foster a classroom environment in which students feel safe, accepted and free to discover. I strive to ensure all students have equal opportunities to learn, ask questions and develop critical thinking skills. My goal is to equip my students with immeasurable knowledge, values, and decision-making skills necessary to become productive citizens.
