I have always found joy in being with and helping young children. I have also had many wonderful and influential teachers during my elementary, primary, high school, and college years, and the first teacher to truly inspire me to become a teacher myself was my second grade teacher, Mrs. Laue.
Mrs. Laue was always excited to be at school. She taught us addition and subtraction using a real checkbook and introduced me to the fun, exciting world books can provide us.
