I believe every child should have the opportunity to receive an excellent education. I believe that a teacher should be more than just a teacher to all her students; she should be mother, counselor, and peacemaker. I believe that children learn best at their own pace. I feel the teacher and parents should have an open relationship; they should feel free to express concerns to each other. I hope that all children I teach will remember me and I hope to inspire at least one to do the same thing I will be doing.
