ULTIMATE CAREER GOAL:
My ultimate career goal in teaching is to promote learning. For the most part, learning takes place in many different circumstances and contexts. Although everyone is capable of learning, a student's desire to learn is vital to mastering new concepts, principles, and skills. I want to Inspire Students. Nothing pushes students to do their best work like a teacher who takes pride not in his or her own accomplishments, but in helping others realize their potential.
BIGGEST ACHIEVEMENT:
One of my biggest achievements has to be establishing a positive relationship with my students. This has allowed me to get to know every one of my students and better help them when they are struggling with work. If you do not have a good relationship with your students, in my opinion, you are not in the right field.
Even though I am just a Tutor I consider myself a role model to my students. I make sure I am there for my students when they need someone to listen.
What are you looking forward to this upcoming school year?
Meeting new students.
A new school year means new faces, personalities, and opportunities. I am looking forward to meeting new students for this upcoming year – while not forgetting my previous wonderful students, of course.
Hearing about all the exciting stories students bring back after summer vacation.
I am anxious to see some friendly faces and return to my class from the year before, I can't wait to hear all about summer vacations and the adventures of a lifetime from students.
Teaching students new activities through enrichment.
Having new ideas to share with students and coming up with fun ways for students to use their imagination and create something beautiful they feel proud of is what I look forward to this upcoming year.
