Why Do I Teach?:
I come from a family of teachers, but I did not always see the value of an education until I had children of my own and realized it is up to us to prepare them to suceed. I finally realized why almost every member of my family has become a teacher and wanted to be a part of this group of professionals that inspires children to do and be their best.
