Dr. Seuss famously said, “Today you are You, that is truer than true. There is no one alive who is Youer than You.” That quote has stuck with me since I was a senior in high school. My favorite teacher encouraged me to push myself further in my education and professional career. Now, through the long temperament boulevard of hard work, I can see the finish line in arm’s reach. I expect to experience at numerous of things during student teaching like preparation, classroom management, develop communication skills with students, staff administration, and parents.

I have the skills to prepare me for the preparation, classroom management and communication. Through my teaching, I will provide engagement through my pedagogy, positive classroom management skills, and conductive work ethic from the feedback of my communication. Just like Dr. Seuss said, I am the one that will make the difference of my future students because there is no one youer than
