Goal of teaching:

 To impact the children's lives for Christ in such a way that they will be inspired to follow Christ no matter what the cost. I also hope to challenge students to become lifelong learners and individuals that care deeply about others.

Hobbies:

 My pets, reading, gardening, traveling

What I like about my students:

What I especially like about my students is their enthusiasm for life and learning. I learn so much from the children. Some of the best ideas that I have heard for classroom management have come out of the mouths of babes. They also have wonderful spiritual insight that encourages me in my spiritual walk.

How I would describe my personality:

My advice for students:

Always stay connected to Christ my dear friends. I want to meet you all at the “Tree of Life.”

My advice to parent(s)/guardian(s):

Limit TV, computer, and video game consumption. Talk to your children everyday and spend lots and lots of quality time with them. Children grow up so fast. Try to make memories with them often and don’t forget
to hug them daily and say "I love you" without reservation.
