Dear Parents/Guardians,
I would just like to take the time to introduce myself, for I will be teaching your student this semester in several foreign language courses. I would just like to start off by saying, that it is a pleasure to be able to teach such a great group of students and to be involved within community. My philosophy of teaching is based on providing a comfortable environment for every student, while challenging individuals in various aspects of their education. I also plan to instill values of respect, professionalism, and life long learning, which will aid them as they embark into the real world. My goal this year is to provide different forms of instruction and assistance to meet your student’s needs of learning. If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to attend parent/teacher conferences this semester or email me through the school web address.
Respectfully,
Ronald M. Lavaire
