Teaching theory

I believe it is the job of the teacher to give students the tools they need to be
successful in their class and in defined content in the future by challenging
their ability and expanding it

I believe it is also the job of a teacher to be an example to students in model
adult behavior in respect, professionalism, character, and communication

I believe it is the students job to use the tools given by the teacher to push
for their highest success

I believe it is also the job of the student to try to mirror observed teacher
behavior in respect, professionalism, character, and communication

I believe it is the job of the community to give students opportunities to
discover passion and purpose and to support them in the pursuit of success
and happiness
