I work with superheroes every day. My students have an impressive amount of strength and power and courage. The best superpower I have is to reveal to them that they can achieve more than they ever dreamed was possible. I don't need an imaginary superpower when I can accomplish this! When my students learn that I don't give up on them and don't let them off the hook, but that I am with them every step of the way as they struggle through one of the toughest courses in high school, AP Chemistry, they also learn that they have GRIT and POWER and STRENGTH. Survivors of AP Chemistry are truly ready to face any academic challenge, but they are also more prepared to deal with loss, adversity, disappointment, and even wild success without losing sight of who they are and how valuable they are as a person. This is my superpower.
