: : : : Photo: About The Teacher Label: About The Teacher I love history and government, so when you step into my class be ready to learn! More than you ever thought you would....and enjoy it too! I want you to love your country, live the experiences of those who came before -- to truly love the American way of life -- not just get caught up in grades. I make the class challenging and hopefully interesting. I want your BEST - and don't like to settle for anything less. I want you to develop an appreciation for those who came before.... I have one major goal for all my classes: "To leave you better than I found you..." While I AM a history teacher per se...in truth I am a story teller. History is a story. A story, told properly, will stay with you for a lifetime, bookwork you forget before you even leave the building. Let me tell you a story..... Mission Label: Mission I believe that it is the right of every child to have the opportunity to EARN a quality education. I define a quality education as one that contains the latest technology and subject information, and is taught by a qualified, caring, ENTHUSIASTIC teacher. My education philosophy is centered around a quote by Lady Bird Johnson…. “Children are apt to live up to what you believe of them.” Education HAS to be presented with genuine enthusiasm for your subject. If you show them you believe in what you are teaching, then they will believe it is important and essential to their future. I have high expectations for all my students and push them as hard as I can to meet those expectations. I believe many of the problems we have in society today could be solved by properly teaching American History, Government, and Civics in school, thus giving students a blueprint for a lawful, moral, prosperous society. "You teach some by what you say, teach more by what you do, but most of all, you teach most by WHO YOU ARE." Or, would you like to view and optionally restore one of these previous versions?
