-As far as my being here, the big picture, is where I intend to accomplish when I'm done. I am a mom. I've been in the workforce. I have a family, a husband, and children.

But there's something I want to do for other children. And it requires me to be here. It requires me to have the credentials. The academic requirements need to be met so that I can be in a classroom.

The reason why I want to be a teacher is I believe that every child is capable of learning. I believe every child has the capacity. It's the instruction that's important. So I feel that I can offer the instruction needed, so that every child can reach their academic goal. So it requires me to reach mine first.
