"anyone can learn, it is just up to the teacher to teach you in a way that makes sense. Everyone has different styles of learning and it would be my responsibility to learn the most effective way to accommodate accordingly. No one should have to shy away from what interests them because of a closed off teacher. All students should thrive in and out of the classroom"
