History of education

As I have been pursuing my education, I have grown to appreciate and value my past instructors from preschool to college. My academic interests are to strive to do the best I can in my coursework as well as visualize the ways my instructors teach me so I can establish those same teaching methods onto my own teaching. I want to be on top of my grades and want my grades to reflect exactly how committed I am to becoming a teacher. I want to use what I have been taught to the best of my abilities when

My role within the agency is as the school social worker who meets with students weekly to help build social skills, manage transitions from public school, and large social skills classes.
