Teaching style
I love to have fun in the classroom! The more the students are engaged, the more fun they have and the more they remember. Don't you love to see the happy smiles on the faces of your students and their parents? Me too.
My philosophy has always been this: 🔽🔽🔽
"Think before you speak. Give your everything to their learning. Make them feel like geniuses."
I actually had this laminated and posted at my desk as a constant reminder. That's the key to being a teacher your students will remember.
