I have 15+ years of experience in education. I have an extensive background in leadership and mentoring with an emphasis in teaching, coaching, and developing students in the classroom and athletes through practice and competition. My goal is to make lifelong learners that will impact the world around them long after they come through my classroom.
Classroom Policies:
Respectful Communication: Always communicate respectfully with peers and teacher, listening actively and speaking thoughtfully. This includes refraining from interrupting, using appropriate language, and addressing conflicts calmly.
Responsibility and Accountability: Be punctual, complete assignments on time, and take responsibility for your own learning. If you encounter difficulties, seek help proactively and manage your time effectively.
Collaborative Engagement: Actively participate in class discussions and group activities, contributing your ideas and listening to others. Support a positive and inclusive learning environment by encouraging diverse perspectives and teamwork.
