"I am not afraid to laugh during class, and this is something my students say defines me. I embrace my bubbly personality in the classroom because I want my students to see that no matter what age you are, it’s important just to be yourself."

"I am in my second year of teaching [in our Teacher Pathway program], and every day I am reminded how amazing it is.
