STEM Teacher in the Making

Looking at myself becoming a person in STEM in the mirror, I think of making that little girl's dreams come true by helping others in something I enjoy and learning more about. When I think about my students, I have the idea that even though math might not be their favorite subject, they are ready to come into my room with energy or be able to connect. Being a former athlete, I want to equip my students with the tools to succeed in the classroom and help their peers. My ideas change just like the State Standards have changed, taking pictures or terms differently. They say it takes five years to get into a routine of being a teacher and owning the way you teach. In education, we are always learning new things and are always in the making, and so are our students.
