"As a teacher, I accept the understanding that change is inevitable and that, in order to face the multi-dimensional world of educating, we must prepare our minds as educators to be able to learn, unlearn, and re-learn.

"In the classroom, I find the daily experiences cause me to have personal reflections upon the life as I have led, as a student in the past in addition to the avenues I would like to take in the future. This comes as a response to the hopes, dreams, and aspirations that I admire about the students that I encounter daily. As I try to exemplify the characteristics and actions for my students to model, I encounter in them the very characteristics and actions I want to model. Therefore, the model that I would like to become for the student conversely causes them to mold me into who and what I should be modeling, in order to help them."
