I believe that a classroom should be a safe, caring community where children are free to speak their mind and blossom and grow. ... "Teaching is a process of learning from your students, colleagues, parents, and the community. This is a lifelong process where you learn new strategies, new ideas, and new philosophies. I have been in education for 33 years and absolutely love seeing students grow and learn. I have attended Alcorn State University, Soouthern University, National University, and Jones International University.
