Contributes to fostering a school culture with a

As an educator I make sure that the standards of my
class represent the standards in which I am aiming to
work for. By doing so I devote myself to the lessons by
making sure I meet the deadlines and at the
expectations. I make sure my students also do the
same despite the circumstances I modify the
standards depending on their situations. By doing so
my students have been more successful and better
equipped.

work is explicitly seen in the class. Students get to see how I am as a student and a
teacher. They know that they too can make an impact in the community. Through
constant commitment to my students they understand that I am here for them to
support their goals. In recent times many seniors have turned to me to write letter
