lives. You believe that teaching is an art in every sense of the word and that you and your team can always do better.

You are interested in being observed from time to time to receive constructive feedback on your teaching practices. You strive to get the best possible results at the school where you will be teaching, and are willing seek out opportunities to learn from other educators across the greater education community in and outside your school and our company.
