First and for most, what inspires me to be a better teacher is my students.  Only teachers know what it’s like to come to work late and have 17 individuals applause your arrival.  Their trust, love, honesty, reliance and confidence in me not only inspires me, but convicts me to give them what they deserve, my genuine best.

I derive inspiration from other teachers as well.  Their enthusiasm, energy, dedication and perseverance invigorates me.  The patient determination of my GSU professors inspires me.  The confidence my administrators have in me inspires me.  The support of my friends and family outside of school and their constant belief in the validity of my work gives me great inspiration.
