The expectations I have for myself as a student are not only to make grades, but to be present in all of my courses. To take in as much as I can to prepare myself for my career. The expectations I have for myself as a teacher are to always show up for my students, and to give them my best. I want my classroom to be a positive, safe, and calming space. An environment where students can feel comfortable to be completely themselves, and to learn. Where the expectations are clear and attainable.
