Journey into Education and Teaching
|
 Tara Anderson: I am an idealist and I believe that regardless of circumstances every student can learn. Sometimes the same lesson will have to be introduced ten different ways, ten different times, and that is okay. |
 Monica Beres: The opportunity to be in the JET program will fulfill my lifelong goal of becoming a teacher, and serving children with challenging needs. |
| Ronda Ferreira: I look forward to the challenge of coming up with new ideas to keep children interested and eager to learn. | Jolaine Mooney: When a new concept or idea "clicks" with a student and they become part of the learning process then I feel just as excited as they do. |
| Fanny Nieves: My decision to teach is very simple, kids need guidance and understanding and someone they can look up to and maybe someday they will get inspired to teach as well. |
Connie Root: I have always loved children and enjoy seeing the personal growth of every child. |
| Sheila St. Michel: I feel that working towards a degree in Elementary Education will greatly benefit my career and the children that I work with. | Maria Teixeira: I feel I receive much more than I give when it comes to working with my students. I feel an abundance of pride when a child has mastered a goal they have been working towards achieving. |
| Dawn Tripp: My ultimate goal is to become a special needs teacher. | Linda Zaunere: To make a positive change in a high need elementary school would be very rewarding. |
