-: What I love the most is just interacting with kids
and watching them grow and having an impact in their life.
A lot of times, you might just say hi to a kid
and that will just make their day.
You know, I'll give you one example.
The other day, I was working lunch duty
at first grade lunch duty and I said hello to a student
with their name and she just brightened up her smile.
She's like, "You know my name?"
"I'm like yeah, of course I know your name."
She's like, "This is the best day ever."
you just never know as a teacher how you impact somebody
and I try to bring that positivity
and impact students every single day.
There are some challenges.
I think one of my biggest challenges is having
difficult conversations with some teachers
because everything is based on data
and a lot of my decisions on based on data
and if they don't agree with some of their databases
decisions, it can become an uncomfortable situation
I think that's one of my challenges.
Also, is trying to meet all the needs of all my teachers
since I'm in such a large school,
there's only one instructional coach,
it's hard for me to meet all the teachers
needs at all times when they ask.
