“We cannot always build a future for our youth, but we can build our youth for the future.”  -FDR

I have learned many things from my year long student teaching experience.  Through the Pekin Professional Development School (PDS) I got to be a part of a collaborative team of educators who always had the best interest of the students first.  I feel very comfortable teaching all the subject areas and working alongside fellow colleagues.  I feel prepared to take the knowledge that I have obtained and continue to grow to become the best educator that I can.
