My beliefs Teaching is a skill, a craft that takes a career to develop.

My beliefs Teaching is a skill, a craft that takes a career to develop. Most new teachers are not born. They are novices who evolve with experience. Effective teaching is adapting to different students, cultures, locales, times, and trends. Teaching is collaborative - working with students, colleagues, mentors, outside agencies (PACs, PSAs, the Ministry). Teaching is communicating, listening, connecting, engaging, being relevant, and encouraging critical thinking. Teaching can become a lifelong passion.
