My Students

"A teacher is never a giver of truth; he/she is a guider, a pointer to the truth that each student must find themselves."—Bruce Lee

As a special education ESOL teacher, I have students with ASD, EBD, and ADD and are learning English as a new language.

I have the opportunity to work with students with varying language proficiency levels. My students speak multiple languages and inspire my colleagues and me to learn more about their cultures. My students come to school every day ready to work hard to prepare themselves for the future.

My Project

The students in the tennis club really need a tennis rackets and hopper ball baskets to help them with practice after school. We are creating SEL activities to help relieve stress in our tennis club. With your help, we will be able to get the equipment we need for the fun activities we are doing in our tennis club. As the first-time coach of the tennis club, I would appreciate the help in teaching the students how to play tennis and relieve stress by making friends and playing tennis together. With the equipment listed above, this will help our tennis club.
