Jill Anderson SPIN- STRENGTH WHY I LOVE TO TEACH: I teach for a few meaningful reasons.

It’s the small things you watch them celebrate which is a great sight to see. I love giving that positive feedback at every step of the way.

At the end of the day I head home to my family that use to consist of six of us that soon will dwindled down to 3. I love being a mom and motivating them to be great human. |
