An effective teacher aims to impart knowledge that will have a life-long impact on the student.

Coming from a long line of teachers and preachers, I have been exposed to the life-long value of education and the privilege of being an educator. Teaching is like breathing – it keeps you alive on a daily basis while educating students, peers, children, and their families.
