PERSONAL SUMMARY
As a highly-motivated and energetic new teacher, it is my
goal to make a positive impact on the lives of each and
every one of my students. If I have learned anything
throughout my life it is that we are all different, whether it
be based on our family, religion, culture, learning styles,
physicality, mental abilities and/or disabilities, we all
deserve an opportunity to learn and grow in an
environment free from ridicule. That is why, as a teacher,
I will make it my priority to be sensitive to each of my
students interests, achievements, and difficulties. I will
establish a sense of community, respect for others, and
a risk free environment by modelling a positive attitude
toward diversity, accepting mistakes as opportunities for
learning, fostering positive critical thinking and
acknowledging and building on the unique ways in which
each student thinks and learns.
