“I love introducing students to new topics, texts, and perspectives. I realize not everyone loves the subject as much as I do, so if I can help students get excited about studying history, finding topics they’re interested in, or understanding how the past can help them contextualize the present, then I’m happy.”

“I hope my students leave my classroom believing that they can succeed in any subject or career with hard work. As a chemistry teacher, I find it most important to send this message to students who have received the message that they simply don’t belong in STEM.
I hope they know that science isn’t just for men with crazy hair. Any one can be a scientist, scientific thinking is a skill that can be built and refined over time. So at the end of every term, I hope my students gain just a little more confidence in themselves.”

“By fostering a sense of belonging and camaraderie in the classroom, I hope to create a space where students feel comfortable expressing themselves creatively and emotionally. Whether it’s through Harkness method, group projects, or even just sharing a laugh together, I want my students to know that they are valued and supported.
Ultimately, my goal is to not only help them grow as artists but also as individuals who feel connected and cared for within our school community.”
