Objectives
My primary objective as an educator is to help students recognize and attain their own
potential. This looks very different from individual to individual but it is my belief that,
regardless of the starting point and/or goal, every student is capable of growth that
should be recognized, encouraged, and ultimately celebrated. I also believe it is crucial
for students basic needs to be met before expecting them to learn. Consequently, I
strive to create a classroom that is welcoming and supportive of students physical,
social, and psychological needs.

General Major in Humanities focused on the following three streams: English, History, and

grades I received in the various courses I took in each of these disciplines.
