"Teachers who love teaching, teach children to love learning" Growing up, I had no idea that I wanted to be a teacher. I thought I would be a scientist that researched DNA. It wasn't until college when I realized that there was no way that I would be able to sit in a lab all day. I wanted to make a difference and I thought "what better way to make a difference than with children". There is something that comes alive in me when I am teaching. Sometimes I get chills or goosebumps; other times I feel compelled to tell my students randomly that they are amazing and they are so smart. I love teaching and I want to give my students all the meaningful learning opportunities in the world.
