It highlights the integration of faith in education, focusing on not just knowledge, but also nurturing students’ spiritual growth and understanding of their eternal purpose.

I am a very social person, so the easiest technique for me to use is communicating with other teachers.

I also tend to ask questions about things and try to understand the why behind what is being done.
