What makes you a good teacher?

I chose teaching because language connects people and ideas, and I wanted to help students find their voice. I aim to inspire students by showing English as a tool for expression, creativity, and making sense of the world through texts, writing, and discussion. I build a common language through respect and genuine interest in their perspectives, creating a classroom where students feel safe to question, collaborate, and grow.
