Why is teaching important to you? Teaching is my life. I love all my “babies.” I tell my students one they have been in my class, they will always be mine. I will do everything in my power to make sure they learn and feel loved. Since I teach mainly “life,” it makes proud to see my students comprehend what I am teaching them and use this information when they get out in the real world.
