OBJECTIVE

As a middle or high school educator, it is my ambition to play an

essential role in the development of students and to be a key
contributor to educational goals of the school district. I am excited to
cultivate a positive and productive classroom environment by
motivating students with authentic activities and by modeling and
teaching mutual respect. In this environment, students will develop a
commitment to bettering themselves as learners and as people.
