Tim Regan, High School Teacher, Chatham ON
I am a teacher, not a robot. I think the most important aspect of being a teacher is to let students know that you are human. I make mistakes but I try to learn from them. I expect students to do the same.
I believe it is important to have fun in the classroom and this is easy to do by developing a good relationship with students, again, being a human is important.
I am a teacher who is willing to try and experiment new things in the classroom to make everyone’s experience an enjoyable one.
I use technology in the classroom on a daily basis. It has become an important part of my teaching career. I am always looking at new ways to make the learning experience for my students a rich one and an engaging one.
