...positive impact into the lives of our young learners. Today's young males, specifically, lack positive role models that speak and demonstrate how a man conducts himself in a vibrant and moral society. Lately, passion and urgency are driving my commitment to become a teacher. I believe God has placed a level of patience and grace within me, that others have affirmed, which can assist me by instilling what our youth need in today's learning environment.

As an English teacher, creating a sense of excitement in reading and writing is what I wanted students to always strive for in their academic lives. Literature and composition played an essential role in my life, and I hope students will feel the same as they explore their imagination and curiosity. When a student tells me they just read ".........." and loved it, I feel inspired by them and encourage them to continue learning forever.
