What are your strengths and weaknesses as a teacher and why?

Strengths: “ I don’t have any strengths man, can I just tell you my weaknesses… OH MY STRENGTHS , I think I have a good sense of humor! LOL.”

Weaknesses: “Man can we just go back to the strengths.. WELLLLLL I guess I’m not very organized.”

Sing a song that best describes you and tell me why this best fits you.

“‘What’s my age again… What’s my age again’ because it’s a song about a guy who’s older but acts immature as if he’s younger.”

What is the funniest thing that has happened to you recently?

“A lot of stuff happens to me… I guess I did Zumba for the first time but I guess that’s more embarrassing than funny. I had to bust out my moves plus I was the only guy…”

If you could be any animal in the world, what would you be and why?

“The Tardigrade because it’s invincible! It could resist extreme temperatures and live without water for 10 years, only animal that can survive in space!”

What is your least favorite thing about humanity and why?

“Pollution, because people are not conscious about taking care of the planet and I worry about the future.”

Share a personal fact  no one would ever guess about you.

“This summer I will be backpacking to Hong Kong and Thailand.”

Which ancient place would you like to go and why?

“The Burmese Temples, because you asked for something ancient and that’s close to Thailand.”

If you were on an island and could only bring three things, what would you bring and why?

1. “Chapstick , because I can’t seem to live without it.”

2. “My dog, Duke, because he’s my bff and doesn’t annoy me like people sometimes..”

3. “Camping house, so I can camp out and not get bitten by mosquitos.”

On a scale of 1-10 , how strict were your parents with you and why do you think they were this way with you?

“I would say, 1. They weren’t strict because my parents raised us with a lot of responsibility growing up so there was no reason to worry about me because I was already mature for my age.”

Name a pro and con about your job and explain why.

Pro: “I like working with students because they keep me active.”

Con: “There’s a lot of meetings that I don’t like going to.”
