I set high expectations for students and encourage them to reach their full potential! I look for ways to engage students in activities that appeal to their multiple intelligences and make them excited about learning - I am always excited about learning and love to share that positive attitude toward lessons and assignments! It is important to me as a teacher to value my student's input. There must be an opportunity for them to ask questions that support their learning. Not only does this allow my students to demonstrate metacognition, but they can continuously reflect on how they can improve. This is crucial when a student is studying a topic they have little interest in and have met with little success. I understand that my role as their teacher is to look for ways for them to improve - and that's when I share all the tools and tricks learned over 16 years in the classroom and 7 years as a tutor! No two students learn in the same way. It is my job as a professional to engage that student's spark of curiosity which will lead to a lifelong love of learning!
