My Students

My scholars are exceptional beyond measure. They continue to put forth their best efforts in light of these unusual times. They are always meeting my expectations in classwork and behavior. I really want to have resources to practice at home so they will achieve mastery of all of their kindergarten skills.

My Project

Teaching is a field experience that not many have the potential nor desire to do and just like any other related occupation, training is required. Acquiring the requested text books and other related materials will allow me to expand my knowledge for my career as in educator. Obtaining the textbooks preps me for future praxis exams, allowing me to take my instruction to the next level.

Gaining my certification will demonstrate my commitment to superior instruction throughout all subjects, upholding standards and continued learning for all scholars.

These merits will boost my current instruction to become even more intentional, allowing my scholars to receive the knowledge needed to grow.
