I am always learning how to teach. By meeting and collaborating with other faculty in the school, I’ve designed units where students can use the resources in the library, the Internet, and themselves in order to learn. In short, I am always looking for opportunities to reflect on experiences and seeking opportunities for growth as a new teacher. I have every intention of furthering my own professional development as I try to fit into a new school and curriculum as well as with the students, faculty, and community. Reading, writing, and problem solving are only the first steps into developing students’ habits of life-long learning. These are the habits that I want students to remember through school and in life, long after they have left my classroom.
