It is very nice to "meet" you Amy Crowder! There is much to be said of someone who will help take care of their grandparents (as I am in the same situation), so I commend you for that. I guess the saying about ending up doing the one thing you said you would never do came true in your case! How neat that you are able to work alongside you mother teaching children. I'm sure you are learning a lot from her. As far as your teaching philosophy, I agree that children, no matter what their differences, should be given the best education possible. There should really be no special treatment as far as someone deciding who should be taught what. Each child should be given the same opportunities!


Hi Amy, just wanted to say "thanks" for the encouraging words and just taking the time to respond to my article. I also work with students in special education (going on nine years) and I do love the work. Believe me, I doubt it very much if you will become an "old crotchety school teacher". You are right about the use of technology being used the classroom; technology is becoming a very popular instrument when it comes to teaching students and completing paperwork. I also agree with you on your teaching philosophy. All students should be taught on their level and given the same opportunities to succeed.Msmhobbs04 (talk) 23:21, 30 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]


Hello Amy. You have a very interesting story! I really enjoyed reading your page. I can definitely relate to the way you decided later on to teach. I said I would never be a teacher, and now look at me! I also completely agree with what you said about all children being given an opportunity. I am a strong believer that everyone has the ability to learn. It sounds like you will become a great teacher! Good luck with all you do! Regs1687 (talk) 03:31, 1 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
