With a focus on special education, I have a conceptual understanding of the importance in designing lessons and class discussions geared towards all student learners, helping support their academic success. Likewise, I strongly emphasize the implementation of Universal Design for Learning, the process of using a variety of teaching methods, removing any barriers learners might be faced with and ultimately providing all students equal opportunities to succeed in the classroom. I promise to accommodate students and to ensure my lessons are not designed with the "average" student in mind. I believe all students learn differently and I try to create lessons which shed light on to these different areas. My goal as a young educator is to design appropriate lessons, giving all types of learners the ability to succeed, while challenging their conceptual understanding of the content at hand.
