Thoughts on Teaching

Teaching is one of the most difficult, yet most

important careers.

It is not just a career, but a lifestyle.

Teaching is the basis for creating all other

professions.

Hints for Success

You will learn something in this classroom every single day, as long as you put in the required effort.

Be respectful of others.

Complete your assignments on time and to the best of your ability.

Be an active thinker and participate in class discussions.

Every question is worth asking.

Don’t hesitate to come talk to me about any problems or concerns you may have.

My Pledge to Students

I will give you my trust. Don’t compromise that.

I will welcome your opinions as long as they are expressed in a respectful manner.

I will do whatever it takes to help you succeed in this class. I would be happy to stay late to provide extra help if needed.

I can’t promise you’ll have always fun or fall in love with the subject, but I will certainly try to make class interesting and entertaining.

“A teacher who is attempting to teach without inspiring the pupil with a desire to learn is hammering on cold iron.”

-Horace Mann
