Past students have remarked that my teaching style is animated and are surprised at their ability to focus and understand concepts even after a long day of school, practice, or work.

Most importantly, it is crucial that teachers exhibit all of the qualities of fine character so as to provide a model for their students.

...teacher at an urban high school, I've worked with students ranging from a first-grade reading level to a college-level. My goal is always to bring all of these students to the same level so that they can have the same opportunity for success. Any student can learn when you give them a chance. My inclination for intense differentiation allows me to work with students of any ability and push them toward writing and reading fluency.
