A great teacher makes learning fun. I strive to create stimulating, messy, creative, differentiated, and engaging lessons. This lessons are pivotal to a student’s academic success. That’s exactly what learning environment I want to provide. Positivity is key this school year! Children love using art supplies to create books, numbers, letters, monsters, and other trinkets. Some students who are more prone to misbehavior, truancy or disengagement are more dependent on an engaging teacher, technology, and/or sensory items. For this project I wanted to focus mainly on independent activities that foster academics.

Inspiration can also take many forms, from helping a peer through the academic year and their short-term goals, to guiding them towards their future career. Years after graduation, many working professionals will still cite a particular teacher as the one who fostered their love of what they currently do and attribute their i
