IdentityI have learned the importance of messing up. I know, this sounds crazy, but I have found myself so nervous about screwing something up. I always expected to plan the perfect lesson, explain everything correctly, and have everything go smoothly and as designed. And let me be the first to say, this is rarely the case. I have learned how important it is to accept that we are not perfect teachers, and neither are our cooperating teachers! We all have things to learn, and my student teaching experience has taught me how to learn from my mistakes rather than letting them eat away at me. I learned something from my cooperating teacher and the students almost every day, and being open to this and vulnerable allowed me to grow, adapt, and think on my feet! Having these experiences is the real life of a teacher.
The strength I am an honest, self-motivated and hardworking with the positive attitude towards my career and my life
