A Great Comfort

My greatest success for this year as a new educator is feeling more comfortable in my teaching abilities and understanding all that goes into being an effective teacher. As side from the fact that this year has been quite challenging, as a first year teacher, it has also shown me many things that I did not know before and has prepared me for the upcoming years. Another great comfort is knowing that I have support, like my NESS mentor (who is the best ever), and my colleagues, to back me up and help me whenever possible.
