Thank you for visiting my e-Portfolio! This site reflects only a small portion of the work and experiences that comprised my student teaching experience. As you look through these aspects of my educational journey, it is my hope that you gain a glimpse into my passion for teaching and the commitment I have in creating a positive and engaging learning environment.
For as long as I can remember, I have wanted to be a teacher. Working with and taking part in influencing young lives is something that has always sparked an interest in me. I feel no greater joy than when I am in this role and watching students grow in knowledge and character. To carry the responsibility of shaping the life and mind of a child is a profound calling, and something that drives my passion for what I do everyday. Teaching is the means by which I want to accomplish this desire of positively impacting students' lives. I hope to instill in my students the passion to pursue their own dreams by above all else, giving them value and a voice within my classroom.
My time at Regent University has only strengthened this passion I have for being an educator. It has allowed me to take the the resources, knowledge, and instruction I have acquired and apply it directly in the classroom. Throughout my student teaching experience, I have personally seen success in implementing practices such as differentiated and student-centered learning, interdisciplinary instruction, as well as effective behavior management. In all of this, I believe that the key to any successful classroom is the relationship built between the teacher, students, and all those involved in their learning.
I am eager to continue with the next chapter of my journey in education and begin shaping the lives of all those I will teach. Again, thank you for visiting my site. As you peruse this e-Portfolio, you will be reminded of both my committment and readiness to help every student that will be in my classroom.
