I teach for so many reasons. I teach to educate the future generation. I can only hope that my students learn as much from me as I learned from my great teachers. Rachel Garay

Students with learning difficulties have experienced years of defeat and are often afraid to take risks and make mistakes. My job is to create a healthy climate in the classroom for each student where risk taking is celebrated and making mistakes is okay. Marilee Gleason
