Miss Nichole Willden
My favorite part about teaching is what happens after the information has been presented; it is the excitement of watching as a child grasps an elusive concept, learning something new to him that he will use for the rest of his life. My favorite thing to see is a young mind blossoming with new knowledge. As a teacher, my goal is to foster a love for learning in each child, in a hope that they will continue their education throughout the remainder of their lives. I like children to gain a confidence in their own abilities. For that reason I allow them opportunities to teach each other, to take an active role in their schooling community, and to continue their education beyond the formal classroom. I hope to share my love for learning with a classroom full of enthusiastic students!
