Mrs. Westover's Second Grade
My name is Mrs. Westover and I teach Second grade at St. Mary School. I currently have a Master's Degree in Early Childhood Education from Akron University.
For the past thirteen years I have had the privilege of teaching second grade at St. Mary’s School. Fulfilling my dream to be a teacher and help children gain a lifelong love for learning has been richly rewarding. I want students to feel that they can succeed in my classroom, and implementing this notion of taking charge of their learning creates a foundation to establish that confidence and autonomy.
As a teacher, it is important to respect all students in the classroom and provide an opportunity for every child to learn. I believe a strong indicator of my effectiveness in the classroom will reflect on my willingness to provide multiple avenues in which children can learn. Providing clear communication of high goals and expectations, classroom management, consistent discipline, creative and interactive teaching styles have been effective tools to help each child excel.
My students may not remember the finer details of a book report, but they will remember the laughter, challenging learning experiences, close friendships and the many times we prayed for each other at St. Mary’s School. As a teacher, this makes all the time that I have invested in teaching your children very gratifying. One of the results of the excellent rapport I experience with my students, current and prior, as well as their parents, has been the many wonderful relationships that have developed over the years.
