My goal is to remove the perceived line between athlete and non-athlete. We are all capable and deserve to be efficient movers of our bodies. Empowering students of any athletic background will make them more confident through any challenge of life. I believe in a student-centered approach, performed by first expressing care towards the students. Once they feel a sense of security, they will better understand I am there to work with them to overcome difficulties. Physical education is a powerful platform that pushes the threshold of our comfort mentally, socially, and physically. The skills and abilities developed in the gym are applicable to our everyday lives. An open mind is the key to empathy and understanding. While we are teachers, we humble ourselves by always remaining students who are willing to strengthen our skills and perspectives.
