What about teaching excites you?

I am excited about the opportunity to be a life-long learner. As a teacher, I am constantly seeking out more information to make my classroom an engaging and industry focused environment to learn.

How do you help students make the industry or real-world connection to what they’re learning?
I work with industry leaders to create projects that are career focused. Students always want to know the “why” when I go over new material. I make it a point to know the “why” so that students find value in the experiences I provide in my classroom.
