Teaching style
KINDNESS! Teaching with kindness is essential for nurturing compassionate, respectful, and caring individuals. I emphasize Support, Opportunity, Adaptability, and Respect (SOAR) in my classroom, encouraging students to make an effort to understand others. Together, we take the time to appreciate different points of view, using that understanding to respond with kindness. This approach helps students learn to consider problems from multiple perspectives and find solutions that address everyone's needs. I model the behavior I expect and communicate that I anticipate the same from my students, fostering a culture of empathy and collaboration.
