2. Explain your "why" for wanting to become a teacher hero to our students, including specific strengths and competencies as a prospective teacher.

As an aspiring teacher, my "why" for wanting to become a teacher hero to our students stems from a deep passion for education and a genuine desire to make a positive impact in their lives. As a person of color, I am aware of diversity

As a support provider in this community, I have built strong relationships with students and parents. With a recent survey of students, measuring students’ social-emotional well-being conducted by Encina high school I was named the most trusted adult on campus by more than eighty percent of students I work with. To achieve this level of trustworthiness, I always try to align my vision and actions with Encina’s mission to fight injustice and implement equity in my community through eliminating language barriers, building positive relationships with both teachers and parents I work with, and making the core curriculum more accessible to all

My education and experience provided me with the opportunity to pay extra attention to the importance of early intervention. Therefore, I developed my experience by working in a preschool setting for a year with children with special needs. Within this experience, I have had the honor to incorporate innovative teaching methods, implement evidence-based practices, and hands-on activities to capture students’ interest and make learning enjoyable. I make sure to design my lessons in a way that caters to all diverse learning styles and abilities.

Overall, my “why” for wanton to become a teacher hero is rooted in my passion for education, my belief in the transformative power of teaching, and my commitment to making a positive difference in the lives of my students. With my ability to connect with students, create engaging learning experiences, foster a growth mindset, and continuously develop as an educator, I am confident in my capacity to inspire, motivate, and empower students to become lifelong learners and compassionate individuals who can positively impact the world around
