Hi, I am Riley Vincent. I want to be a teacher because of my teachers' impact on me when I was younger, and I love kids. When I was in Elementary school, my teachers helped me learn how to use my talkative nature and fast-paced brain for productive things rather than being disruptive. I want to be that teacher for kids and help them put their creativity and energy to good use. To hopefully help them find their passions and help them learn to love themselves as they are. My first, third, and fourth-grade teachers all had an incredible impact on me. They helped me learn to be productive without stifling my creativity. I am so grateful to them and want to be that teacher for kids in my future.
I hope to teach lower elementary, specifically kindergarten. Starting school can be very stressful for little kids, and I want to be a kind presence that will help ease them into the next thirteen years of their lives. I've had experience working in a daycare near my family home and loved working with the almost kindergarteners. I also would like to teach in underprivileged schools to hopefully help those kids that don't have as much of a head start in life as their peers. My other passions and hobbies include video gaming (Minecraft, The Sims, and Slime Rancher mostly), bullet journaling, and creating art. I love helping others, and I hope to one day be a foster parent to older kids.
