I have had the pleasure of being a K-2 teacher for the New York City Department of Education for eight years now. My students are energetic, witty, and determined to succeed. They are hungry for knowledge! Their eyes light up each time they come to a new understanding. Our classroom is warm and welcoming despite being a high poverty school. Our school is constantly seeking ways to improve to keep up with the Common Core standards and 21st century learning in our growing K-5 building. However, this task has not been easy! Our school lacks funding. The money that we do have from the state goes to providing food for our students who would not receive it in their own homes. As a passionate teacher with high hopes of helping each of my students reach their goals, this has certainly created a difficult obstacle. Your support and belief in my students and I make it all possible!
