7. My Professional Goals my ultimate goal is to create a passion for learning in my students. I want my students to have a personal want to learn; solely to better themselves and grow in their education. 2. I also want to create lasting relationships with my students and other faculty members. 3. I also want to create an inviting classroom environment where our relationship is based on trust and structure rather than fear.

8. Why teaching? I was inspired to teach from a young age. In grade school I watched my younger brother fall behind in his understanding of basic Math concepts. I have a passion for math and want to share that with my future students.
