...was already being called "mom" years before I became a mother of two. From this beginning, my teaching philosophy emerged: a teacher's influence extends beyond the classroom walls, but a student's imprint on a teacher's life is equally valuable. A true teacher is deeply invested in every student's success and achievement, just as each student strives to succeed and achieve their own goals in life. Throughout my teaching experience, I realized that one idea doesn't...
