My role as a middle school teacher is to try to understand the student’s point of view before attempting to give them my own. I hope that by listening to understanding student’s in this way, I can

inspire the confidence needed to help them succeed. 

Effective study habits are a very important part of the learning process.  Teaching and practicing highly effective study habits not only encourage intrinsic motivation but also affect learner confidence. I believe that by fostering independent and effective study habits students have found the key to success.

As a middle school teacher, I am committed to giving students the tools they need to see their own value, analyze situations, and effectively solve problems. I believe that when both the teacher and students understand each other’s goals and points of view, the building blocks of mutual respect are developed.
