 Philosophy on Teaching
 Teacher Name:
Jessica Gilling
Email Address:
I believe that each child is a unique individual who needs a secure, caring, and stimulating atmosphere in which to grow and mature emotionally, intellectually, physically, and socially. It is my goal to help students meet their fullest potential in these areas by providing an environment that is safe, supports risk-taking, and invites a sharing of ideas. I teach my students that it is okay to make mistakes and that our mistakes are valuable because we learn from them. It is better to have tried and failed than never to have tried at all.
