Teaching & projects
I believe that all learners possess unique qualities and have something special that they can bring to their own education. My duty as a teacher is to assist my students to express themselves and accept themselves for who they are, as well embrace the differences of others. I also believe in establishing a mutual respect between me and my student and create a cooperative learning environment to allow each learner bring out their unique abilities without and intimidation. I feel morally obligated to enter the classroom with only the highest of expectations for each and every one of my students. With dedication, perseverance, and hard work, every student will rise to the occasion. These I see as a duty to my students and my society.
