About
Hello! I am Danielle Peck and it is nice to meet you! I am patient, optimistic, and a good listener. I love sharing my knowledge with other people.
I am a California native with a passion for teachi... ng specifically with students whom have specific learning disabilities. I want to show my passion for being a teacher to students by bringing care and patience to push them harder and further with through their educational journey.
I believe that every student deserves education that is stimulating, physically, mentally, emotionally, and socially. It is my desire to create the atmosphere where students have choice and be able to meet their full potential.
I believe that there are four essential elements that are productive to learning. (1) I believe students should be in a safe and caring community where children are allowed to grow. (2) I believe every student has a different way of learning and should be given different learning methods. (3) I believed mistakes are necessary to the learning experience and students need the opportunity to practice skills in a safe environment. (4) I believe students should have strategies to help them through their education process such as problem solving skills, positive and negative discipline, learner-oriented teaching that promotes learning that is both purposeful and enduring.read more
