WHY EDUCATION?

Next to my parents, my teachers have been the most influential people in my life. They have become mentors and friends, and their love for knowledge and their students is inspiring. 

Drawing from my own positive experiences, I desire to use my passion and enthusiasm for learning to teach others, while learning myself, and show my students the importance of becoming a well-informed citizen. I want to show them how writing and reading widely not only improves communication, but creates understanding between people from diverse backgrounds and builds empathy. 

As an educator, I desire to be empowering, a seeker of truth and a sharer of knowledge. I strive to be student-focused and community-involved, encouraging students to be healthy, engaged, helpful members of society.

EDUCATING IS ALWAYS A VOCATION ROOTED IN HOPEFULNESS.
