My Philosophy of Teaching
![]()
It is my duty and privilege to influence the lives of the students I come in contact with—all of whom are capable of learning; all of whom are individuals with needs, interests and abilities that require a special combination of instruction, inspiration and insight.

I do not consider teaching to be a job, but a career—one in which the rewards do not come monetarily, but in the gratification of seeing the baby steps and maybe even the giant leaps made by the students I guide on the journey of learning.

I am a teacher. I do not profess to have all the answers. I do not boast of knowing all the right techniques or methods. But, I do promise to continue learning right along with my students—hoping they will learn half as much as I know they will teach me.
