Introduction
My name is Jennifer Johnson. I am a teacher, daughter, sister,
friend , wrestling coach, adventure seeker, and learner. Over the
course of my life I have come to think of myself as evolving . I am
fortunate enough to become a teacher and get to have a career I am
passionate about. Over the years of course work and practicum
experiences, I have come to think that the purpose of education
should be to teach skills that will further your social and
intellectual growth and help you build emotional and spiritual
well-being. Qualities that I feel are worth developing would be
compassion, appreciation, acceptance, confidence, independence, and
working well alone and in group settings. One thing that I try to
incorporate into my classroom is my passion for different subjects
and activities. I feel that by doing so students might be able to
feel more engaged in those areas.I believe that family and friends
play an important role in a students education by creating a
supportive environment, learning support, and even helping with
homework. Nutrition and physical activity are my best suggestions
for growing minds.
Thank you for taking the time to review my professional
profile.
