What do you like most about teaching?
I love seeing kids grow hugely in a short amount of time. When we provide them with the emotional and counseling support they need, we’ll see them grow immensley.
What do you most look forward to about teaching in Monroe this fall?
The community. I have very good warm and fuzzies right now.
