Stewart's belief in class
made career worthwhile
By JIMMY SIMPSON
Staff Writer
Mary Ann Stewart knew early
on that she had a real talent for
teaching. The only problem was
trying to find someone to instruct
year round.
"I had some idea of the real
encounter of teaching because of the
experiences prior to student
teaching," the Morningside
Elementary teacher said. "As each
school year came to a close, I
would find myself eager to begin
the next..."
Stewart's eagerness obviously
paid off when this year she was
named as one of 27 teachers
nominated for "1994 System
Teacher of the Year" in Houston
County.
But Stewart would patiently
wait, all the while wishing that her
career dream would begin as quick
as it seemed to end each summer.
"Despite the hours of outside
planning and preparation, the
particular group of children, the
concerns of helping a child with
special needs, the amount of energy
that was exhausted, I knew I was
called to teach and face the
challenge of creating an
environment of learning the basic
skills while trying to enhance
creativity and the desirable qualities
of the individuals entrusted to me,"
she said.
Stewart, who enters her 15th
year in the profession (10th in
Houston County) said she believes
many personal beliefs revolving
around teaching is demonstrated in
her teaching style.
"Learning and understanding the
personalities and temperaments of
my students indicates the type of
teaching strategies and methods I
need to use," said Saiwart.

skills needed for a student to be
successful should not be

overlooked.
"I begin with the basics and add
to them by using the resources
from staff development courses,
computer programs, learning
centers, strategies from Project
RIDE, Student Support Team
meetings, parent conferences and
shared experiences from other
teachers.
"As I teach, I try to focus on
individual progress and provide
students with an application and an
appreciation for what is being
taught.
Stewart said that teachers should
always remember their first
committment-- teachine children
"Also, teachers should also keep
parents informed of progress,
behavior, and changes in the
students.
Stewart said a familiar Bible
verse should urge parents to watch
with interest and pride the direction
their particular child travels.
"Proverbs 22:6 says, ’Train a
child in the way he should go, and
when he is old he will not turn
from it'," Stewart. said. ”1 am
teaching my own children, and my
students, to follow the right path,
and I look forward to seeing the
blessings they receive from their
training."
