Some interesting facts about me are I am the 5th of 6 children, I am the shortest person in my family, my sister was married in August and her husband is more than a foot taller than me.
The subject I wish to teach is Mathematics and Statistics. Math to me is being able to work through a problem and find a solution that gives you the information you are looking for. I am an organized person and like having a routine. This is partly why I like Math, because for some types of problems you follow a routine/process. I was drawn to my discipline by wanting students to have a patient teacher who understands that math doesn't always click. I can relate to students who don't understand a math concept right off the bat and I want to be the kind of teacher who is willing to help these students come to understand and master different math concepts. Right now my definition of literacy is being able to read, comprehend, and communicate. I do think that literacy relates to math in that students must understand what a problem is asking them. Students need to be able to read through a problem and know what they should do. This is how literacy relates to math from my point of view.
