An education is one of the most important things a person will receive in their life.  As a teacher, I want my students to embrace this opprotunity.  I want them to have fun at school but understand the importance learning.  I think it is important that students learn early on how important education is and to be educated about the benefits of college.  I take my job as an educator very seriosly.  I will help students reach their full potential everyday.  I will encourage them to push themselves to reach their ability.  I will teach them the importance of following rules and self evaluating.  I will provide my students with an educational environment that is calm, encouraging, and one where they are held accountable.  I will provide a nurturing relationship where students will feel appreciated and safe.  I want them to understand they can come to me with any concerns they may have.  I will never give up on my students and I expect that my students will never give up on themselves.
