ABOUT MYSELF AND EXPERIENCE I love teaching! I believe that there are important skills that are necessary in order to be an outstanding teacher. The teacher must have a genuine love and desire to teach. The teacher must genuinely care about the success of students. The teacher must be a good listener. The teacher must be able to work with a team as well as alone. The teacher must be flexible with changes in the environment. The teacher must have patience. The teacher must maintain a positive attitude. I have taught Special Education and core subjects.
