I Teach to Inspire
I am a teacher to inspire students about the world around them. I encourage students to challenge their views on how history affects their lives and the rest of the world. In doing so, students think for themselves, question their world, and become forces of positive change. In my classroom, students are engaged with relevant topics and hands-on inquiry to foster an environment of curiosity, fun, creativity, humor and excitement.
