A warm and welcoming school environment is essential for both teachers and students. I was fortunate to learn in Suwilaawks Community School where the principal regularly checked in with teacher candidates, offering encouragement and reminding me that every mistake is an opportunity to grow. She reinforced that this was a space for learning and practicing teaching.
I learned from my coaching teacher that being a great teacher extends beyond the classroom—it means ensuring students are cared for in every way.
