This page depicts who I am: my hobbies, my personality, and the things that I am passionate about. My love for music, sports, and travel play a large role in my classroom, particularly in the themes that I choose to teach about. One of the main desires that I have for my classroom is that I would be able to relate to my students' through their own passions and interests.
