 Teacher Profile

Miss Orbison

Contact

               As a child, I had a positive learning experience and I attribute my love for teaching to the many dedicated teachers I had, many of which came from First Lutheran School.  This has always motivated me to give my students a similar experience and to encourage an enthusiasm and love for learning. 

               I believe that every student deserves the opportunity to grow emotionally, spiritually and as a young scholar.  William Butler Yeats, a poet, once wrote, “Education is not the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire.”  I keep this quote in mind when designing my lessons.

Every child learns differently; it is my job to find out what each student needs in order to reach his or her full potential. No matter what type of learner we are it is important to have a number of outlets in which to show a growth in knowledge. 

Children, as well as adults, need positive moral support in order to reach their goals and full knowledge potential.  When a child knows that someone believes in their abilities, they are more likely to succeed.  In saying this, I try my best to create a positive, welcoming learning environment.  A kind demeanor and bright classroom with student work showing are two ways I create this environment. 

I will contribute to the overall achievement of my students by paying attention to their learning needs in order to modify lessons so each student, whether they are advanced or in need of extra help, achieve. It is my responsibility to make sure that the subject matter is comprehensible to the students, to engage and support students in their learning, to assess and reteach, and to develop as a professional.

Teaching is a privileged position that requires time, care, respect, humility, professionalism, organization and responsibility.  I take great pride in my profession and am confident that I have the qualities that are needed to run a successful, stimulating and nurturing classroom.  I strive to be a life-long learner, as each new group of students brings new challenges and successes.
