Why Do I Teach?:
I teach school because it a very entertaining and rewarding profession. I love to know that I am molding and guiding the future of our youth. I especially enjoy teaching students new things that they never thought they could do. The vision of the "light bulb" going off makes it worth every heartache or stress.
