Middle School Social Studies & Religion
I am supportive of the idea that hard work can increase students’ chances of success in their endeavors. Additionally, as a teacher I will be conscious of the diverse needs and experiences of my students, and I strive to create a learning environment that is inclusive and respectful of everyone’s backgrounds.
One of my main goals as a teacher is to develop students’ critical thinking and problem-solving skills. I believe that these skills are essential for success both inside and outside the classroom. By encouraging students to think critically and creatively, I hope to prepare them to navigate the complexities of the real world and to become lifelong learners. Overall, I think instilling these goals in my teaching practices can help to foster student growth in the community.
