Objective Teaching is the choicest of professions because everybody who is anybody was taught how to be somebody by a teacher. This has been true for me. I have been inspired from many good teachers who have inspired me to become a teacher. I believe in teaching with a passion, motivation, creativity, and flexibility. Over the years, I have acquired various skills that I know will help me as an educator. I have learned how to better communicate with children, how to differentiate my instruction to meet childrens needs, and I have helped them gain self confidence. I will utilize these skills as a teacher.
