My students inspire me in more ways than one. My students are all special education students that have to work extremely hard to be successful. Each and every one of them has had many obstacles that they have faced in their lives and at such a young age. Despite this many of these kids come in every day ready to learn. I want to give back to them and spark their interest in learning the way my interest was sparked when I was a child. My hope is that my students realize that they can do anything they put their mind and hard work into. I hope that they don't let their obstacles bring them down and that they never doubt their abilities. My goal is that their experiences in my classroom change their futures in the most positive way possible. "The only way of finding the limits of the possible is by going beyond them into the impossible." -Arthur C. Clarke
