"I decided to pursue the National Board Certification to have a greater impact on student achievement and to take a more prominent teacher leadership role."

What will earning your National Board Certification mean to you?

I wanted to challenge myself to be an expert in my field. National Board Certification is the ultimate challenge, and I am willing to undergo this challenge in push myself to be the best at my profession.

What are your early impressions of the fellowship?

It is going to be a difficult and hard journey, but I know that I am not alone. I have my coach that is there to help me with anything that I need. I also have my colleagues that are going through this journey with me. We will help each other with any bumps we encounter.

What do you hope to get out of the fellowship (aside from your certification)?

I want the “Fireworks” at the end of the journey. And, I want to see this impact in my classroom. Beyond that, I want to share my experiences beyond the walls of the classroom.
