Why I Became a Teacher: 
Ever since I was young, I have had a passion to work with children.  From helping my younger sibling and cousins with homework to volunteering in various classrooms, I realized how meaningful teaching and supporting students' learning could be. As a former English Learner, I was inspired by the teachers who supported and encouraged me, while nurturing my love for reading and the confidence to challenge myself. Their impact inspired me to teach English and create an inclusive, supportive classroom where students can connect with the subject and grow academically and personally.
