I student taught in my school last year, and absolutely adored the students and faculty there. My school is in the inner city, and many students struggle both in and out of the classroom. However, the spirit and drive of many of the teachers and students there is inspiring. My students are funny, compassionate and resilient, and they deserve a fantastic education with limitless resources. When I look at my students, I see unlimited amounts of potential and intelligence that is waiting to be unleashed. I also see many students who have been told that they "can't," and I believe that it is my job to show them that they CAN do anything that they set their minds to.
