VTFT… What Can You Say? Virginia Teachers for Tomorrow I and II has
taught me an abundance of things about the teaching profession and has helped shape my future. By its great curriculum, great internships, and wonderful teacher, VTFT I and II has encouraged me to not only be a better student, but to be the best that I could be so that I could fulfill my calling. Despite the fact these past two years were not the easiest years, I must say embarking on this Virginia Teachers for Tomorrow journey was the best school decision I’ve ever made.
Besides doing the extra work, I have learned the importance of lesson planning. When planning a lesson, it is best to incorporate as many learning styles as needed. Planning is not the easiest thing in the world; it takes time and needs to be well thought out. With all of the bits and pieces I have picked up along the way, when you put the puzzle together, you realize that a good relationship with staff, parents, and students is key to assisting a child in his or her learning environment.
Due to the great curriculum and hands on experience of VTFT I and II, I know this is the profession for me! It has inspired me to continue my education and follow my dreams of fulfilling my calling.
In His Spare Time… I love playing basketball
and football! I enjoy hanging with my
friends! I enjoy going to church! Most of all… My favorite
thing to do is to sing!!! I have been singing since
I was 5. It relieves my stress. I love it!
