Welcome to Doug McCann's History Education Portfolio!
“In learning you will teach,
and in teaching you will learn.”
-Phil Collins
Being an aspiring high school history teacher, I have come to the realization of the roles I will have to contribute to give the students the best possible education I can. Bringing kindness by promoting the golden rule, respect by honoring the golden rule, responsibility by holding them to the standards and rules the class sets at the beginning of the year, and empathy are essential everyday. Students need to be involved in their education and understand how much of a difference they can make. I understand I will be more than just a teacher to these students, I will be a role model and mentor as well. I am hoping that all my future students will succeed in the classroom as well as in the real world and be thankful for their experiences.
