​

I would like to start off by thanking you for your time and consideration into both reading this introductory letter and into looking at a potential right fit for your school.

​

In a brief overview of myself, I am a 28 years old, born and raised in Gjilan, Kosovo where I later moved to Newfoundland and Labrador, living there for over three years before moving to Medicine Hat, Alberta. My passions include sports (soccer and tennis specifically), photography, music, fitness, and nature. I am truly interested in how the human body works and performs along with knowing its limitations and how sometimes humans survive unimaginable conditions, falls, natural disasters etc. On the other side of the spectrum, I dislike being inactive, the winter weather, and spiders or snakes (it’s ok to be scared of them).

      It has always been in my character to educate others and I believe this is why I am the person I am, both as an athlete and a coach and now a pre-service teacher. I have always been interested in helping others achieve their highest potentials and watch their development through the year(s), then later in life knowing that my presence has had a truly positive change to the lives of the individuals in a fun manner. I truly believe that happiness is real at this very moment, this moment that you physically see development happen, see learning take place, and most of all, observe a student's ability to incorporate what they have learned (through various subjects) into meaningful questions that involve more than just basic thinking. At this moment, everything we were sent out to do has been achieved, in that individuals have obtained a level of reasoning that goes beyond the basic realm of knowledge, knowing that without your efforts, a very different outcome could be waiting just outside your door.

      In general, I chose this profession because I believe the role I play as an older brother, as a coach, and as a mentor to others that has driven me to become an educator. I enjoy educating others and having the responsibility to lead, it gives me a sense of pride seeing the transformation of students 

 

 

Thank you for your time,
