Learning Philosophy
I believe that every student can learn and succeed in math class if they choose to and apply consistent work habits. I have high expectations for each student who enters my classroom. We will work together to achieve high goals in mathematics. I expect students to arrive in class promptly and take responsibility for their own learning. Students take responsibility by performing at the best ability, challenging themselves and by staying focused and on task at all times. Success is a reward determined by the student. I believe that with hard work, perseverance, and a positive attitude, students can achieve their life’s dreams.
