About me.............

Hello, My name is Timeka Holloway. I am currently returning to school to receive my degree in Elementary Education. My anticpate date of graduation is Fall 11. Education is the key to success. I am becoming an educator because I want to make a difference in a child’s life. I want kids to understand that education is the key to becoming anything you want. Strive to be best in all that you do. If I can just effect one child’s life, that would be tremendous contribution to the world. Students should never perceive falling as an option. They should be motivated to succeed in everything that’s presented before them. Negative conation should be left outside the classroom. Willingness to continue to learn is an excellent pathway to success. Let the light within shine bright and never fade away. Be willing to go that extra mile to help yourself and your fellow classmate.
My Teaching Philosophy

MOTIVATION

Motivation will always be a requirement as a educator. I want to motivate my students to be all they can be. After all someone motivated me. Kids will becoming from such a diverse background in the classroom. Some of them will come from broken homes, poverty, and abuse. They are being told that they can not achieve their goals. They are constantly being surrounded with failure and negative images of life. It will my job, to motivate them to rise above their circumstances. It's not where you come from but it's where you going. And what you do when you get there. Positive words can change a person entire view on life. And children are certainly no different than adults. I will speak motivational words into their lives daily. I have being told that my tongue is powerful and be careful how I use it. I will certainly use my tongue to speak life to kids that need it the most. I will not stand by and watch them become failures and a product of their environment. They will rise above those negative situations in their lives. They will become somebody one day and give back to society. With the right motivation, I can change the path of a child's life.
