What I like about my students:

Their enthusiasm and creativity when facing life.

Laid-back, thoughtful, and sarcastic, though my enthusiasm breaks in now and then.

A daunting but exciting challenge and a valuable learning experience.

How I feel about my relationship with God:

We are old friends that enjoy surprising each other.

How you think a Christian's life would be:

A journey of discovery and excitement that also enables us to bring joy to others.

Do you sometimes get frustrated with students?

Yes, especially when they do not expect as much out of themselves as I do.

If yes, do you ever think of giving up on them or the profession? How do you get through it?

Students can have doubts, and it is part of my job to reassure them. I also need reassurances from the Great Teacher that my strength comes from Him and not me.
