As I sit here looking out at what might very well be my last class of students, I'm conflicted. I feel like I'm a pretty good teacher, and with the direction of education today, I think I'm on the verge of being an awesome teacher. However, I know how to teach. I've done this for 16 years. I've taught grades from 2-7. GATE classes, computer classes, English, history, etc. In other words, I've pushed myself to move around in order to be a more well-rounded educator. I have a good sense of my strengths (Older students) and my weaknesses (2nd graders bring me to my knees!) So, it's hard to say goodbye. Working with children energizes me and pushes me to continue to learn and grow.
