Objective As a teacher, I provide students with academic, social, and life skills. I want to give my students the opportunity to reach their maximum potential in each of these areas. School prepares the children of our society for becoming the adults of our society. My goal is that students have positive experiences in my classroom, as they gain the knowledge that they will build on as they go along through their education. In my teaching experiences, I have worked with students in grades 1 through 8. I have worked with students who need extra help, students who have learning disabilities, and students who are looking for challenging activities. I can bring my background experiences into a classroom of students in your school district to meet their needs and give them the positive experiences that they can learn from and build on.
