As a teacher you're placed in the position to aspire and influence our future generations. My biggest goal is to remind kids of the beauty of life. I want to engrave the belief in my kids that success is failure in progress and the joy of life comes in the journey not the destination. I believe that as teachers we hold the power to help shape a better world and knowing that I am in a position where I can pass on my knowledge makes me proud. I would like to teach children as much as possible in the outdoors. Being outside and growing the connection with nature has become something I am continuously growing passionate about and I would like to pass on that excitement through my teaching. I strongly believe that I can not expect my students to be or do something I am not willing to do myself. Which is why I strive to become better everyday at my job and set the example for my students.
