I think the absolute greatest factor that makes me the teacher I am is,
without a doubt, my relationship with God. He gives me the patience I
need to be flexible to change, pull through every day, and remember the
millions of to -do’s. He’s the one that reminds me that these 5th
graders, although my height, are only 10 or 11 year old kids. He keeps
me grounded so that I may always keep in mind that in the end, they’re
human, and that helps me be more understanding towards them.
