My biggest hope for this course is to learn how to find more joy in teaching and ways for my students to find joy in learning. I hope to find tangible ways to do this and put them into action, even if it is one small step at a time. I hope to better understand  how to live out God's calling for me in teaching, something I won't be perfect at, but can keep taking risks to get better at.

Looking through the resources really empowered me to make a goal to fix my work until I drop attitude. I always have believed that if I stayed at school late, put off social contracts, and skipped self care that eventually teaching would become, "easy". I don't want to burn out - my sister stopped teaching after 4 years. I want to stay motivated and give it my all when I am there instead of feeling tired. With the syllabus, I am making the dream my goal: leave work on time, take time for myself, and work smarter, not harder.

After reading the syllabus, I am excited to use this opportunity to examine the role my faith plays in my calling as an educator. My faith is a quiet part of who I am and this opportunity to bring my faith to the forefront and examine it will be a welcome experience. I'm excited to build a stronger understanding about myself as en educator and a future leader in education.  My hopes and dreams include becoming a leader in education who makes a lasting impact and leaves a legacy after I am gone. I hope this process will be instrumental in setting me up for success and growing with this cohort of  passionate educators.

After reading the course syllabus, I am excited to drive into deep reflection about why I entered the field of education. As the years pass, I can see how teachers become complacent and comfortable in their job. I hope this course will help me evaluate my own passion for teaching and reignite my desire to become a stronger teacher. I also look forward to more closely examining how my faith practices and beliefs impact my role as a teacher and future school leader.

After reviewing the course syllabus, one of my hopes is to be able to increase my own ability to take risks and try new things to benefit my students.

My hopes and dreams for this course are to focus my passion for teaching and learn how to share it with others effectively. I love teaching and everything about it so I'm the one that volunteers for everything;) I want to focus my passion on a couple things this year and really do them well. I also want to share my passion for kids and teaching/learning with others that have lost theirs.
