About Me
I am currently a sophomore at the University of South Alabama. I am majoring in Secondary Education/Social Science. I plan on graduating in 2012 and then start my journey as an educator. I believe teaching is one of the most rewarding and important jobs so I will strive to be the best I can be. I look forward to teaching and plan on embracing the use of technology in the classroom. In a technological generation such as ours I believe it is important to keep up with students and what interest them.
Learning Environment
In my future as an educator I plan on creating a healthy and productive learning environment. The classroom should be a place where a student feels comfortable but also challenged. It is important to me for students to respect me and for them to be able to come to me with any problem. I want to create an environment of equality among students with no differentiation of students based on grades. Since I will be a high school teacher I believe students that age should be held to higher standard. I want my students to be challenged by assignments and by this learn they have the power to accomplish anything. I think a sign of a good class is one where students feel a sense of accomplishment when they complete it. I will be tough but I will always be available for my students. Any help they need I want them to be able to come to me.
