 * About Me, My Teaching Philosophy, And Why You Should Hire Me**

// "I've come to the frightening conclusion that I am the decisive element in the classroom. My personal approach creates the climate. My daily mood makes the weather. As a teacher, I possess a tremendous power to make a child's life miserable or joyous. I can be a tool of torture or an instrument of inspiration. I can humiliate or humor, hurt or heal. In all situations, it is my response that decides whether a crisis will escalate or de-escalate and a child humanized or dehumanized." Haim Ginott //

 * My Personal Digital Story **

Mutual respect, patience, passion, dedication. A interactive, hand-on, diverse, enjoyable, successful learning experience. This is what I will strive to provide every child I teach. I have waited a long time to begin this journey into teaching and i have not taken it lightly. I have many reasons for wanting to teach. I had some amazing teachers, and some not so amazing ones. I can still remember Mr. Place teaching us how to do an outline. It was the basis for my study habits through this day. And Mrs. Rupel was the sole teacher- except for my parents- that was able to get through to me on grammar and spelling. Thank you both. I want to be one of those teachers that children and parents remember. The one that went the extra step, that recognized each child for what their potential is, for what they can do. I will strive, everyday, to enrich the learning experience of your child the way the two teachers I described did for me. I do not believe in teaching every child the same way... because every child is different. I welcome a diverse classroom. Learning doesn't end once the last classroom bell rings. I look forward to learning from my students, from the parents, and each of us learning from each other. Success and happiness to you all, Pete Kuhn
