I teach and mentor my students to better prepare them for life outside of high school.
I arrive at school early and typically stay late in order to make sure that everything gets done and is ready for my students on the following day. During the day, you can often find me running around the classroom, trying my best to create excitement and passion for a subject that is often not the favorite of high school students. In my classroom I like to include discussions, debates, and as much collaboration as I can incorporate.
Here's the first step for everyone
Figure out what subject you are most passionate about and then work to teach students through the medium of that subject, rather than just teaching that subject.
"Teaching doesn't actually make a difference in this day in age, kids don't need to learn what we're teaching, and this generation doesn't want to learn from us anyway."
