Daniels Scholar – Character | Leadership | Service

Professional Summary

As a current Physical Education student teacher, I am working towards continuing my love and education for
sports while showing others its huge importance and positive impact. A position at your school is any physical
educator’s dream job and together, I know that there is no limit on what we can achieve. “Be the change” is a
saying that I live by everyday and know that I can excel and be the change in people’s lives through the mutual
love for physical education and activity! I believe that character isn’t learned, rather you are born with it and I
am very proud of the character I obtain and can give to your school.
