A discovery

 A discovery!

As a future teacher, I want to start each class with a short prayer to invite God’s presence and guidance into the learning process. I believe that every class should begin with gratitude and reflection, reminding my students that wisdom and understanding come from Him. During my very first class, I want to create a warm and welcoming atmosphere by organizing activities that help us build rapport and get to know one another. I plan to include fun and engaging games such as “Hot Potato,” “Find Someone Who,” or “Two Truths and a Lie,” so that my students can feel comfortable, laugh, and start developing a sense of community. My goal is for them to see that I am not a strict nor overly relaxed teacher, but someone who finds balance, firm yet kind, respectful yet approachable. More importantly, I want my care for others to extend beyond the classroom. I don’t want to treat people outside my home with kindness while forgetting to show the same warmth to my family. I want to live with integrity, being the same person both in my personal life and as a teacher. Someone who reflects God’s love through consistency, compassion, and sincerity.
