As a teacher, my goal is to always be getting better. In order to do that, I look at my lessons and classes daily to see what is working and what isn't. Every day, my students give me feedback (whether they know it or not) that I use to shape my class.
Not only do I love the teaching role I take every day in my classroom, but I also love helping students find their voices and reach their full potential. I am passionate about student leadership in all capacities from Ms. Ahearn's Leadership class, to the WEB program, Friday Night Live, and around campus in general. Every student has the potential to be a leader in their own way. Leaders don't have to be big, loud, and command the attention of a group; they can lead quietly by example or in a small group. One aspiration I have is to continue my involvement in the leadership programs on campus and to continue to provide a safe space where my students and club members have a voice and use it in a positive way.
Right now, I'm looking to go back to school to get my Master's. I'd like to get my Master's in teaching; specifically, I want a Master's in educational technology. The reason why I was that specific degree is because technology plays a huge role in our society and its role in the classroom is growing. I want to study the effects of technology on students, both positive and negative, and learn which tools are the most effective to student engagement and learning. My students know that when we have fun while we're learning, we're going to learn more. I want to learn exactly how technology can play a positive role in the life of my students so I can help them learn as much as they can in a fun way.
