NewsWhen asked what Mrs. Betsy Isom likes most about teaching, she said, “My students! I love when they are excited about what we are learning and they start asking questions and start wanting to know more and more. I love it when my students ask me questions to which I don’t know the answers and we get to learn together! Mrs. Isom teaches 6th grade at Wasatch. When she is not teaching, she enjoys watching movies, reading, finding new places to eat, and hanging out with my boys. She can play the cello, speaks German, and dislikes nuts. She likes pretty much all food, except really spicy foods. Desserts are the same – just no nuts!
Mrs. Isom has been so good for one of our kids who hasn’t liked math. She allows the kids to choose from a few different math homework sheets. That choice has made all the difference in the world!! It’s taken the fight out of homework and helped our kiddo to feel independent and successful in a subject they don’t necessarily like.
Cuando le preguntamos a la Sra. Betsy Isom qué es lo que más le gusta de la enseñanza, respondió: “¡Mis alumnos! Me encanta cuando están entusiasmados con lo que estamos aprendiendo y empiezan a hacer preguntas y a querer saber más y más. Me encanta cuando mis alumnos me hacen preguntas para las que no sé las respuestas y aprendemos juntos”. La Sra. Isom enseña 6º curso en Wasatch. Cuando no está enseñando, le gusta ver películas, leer, encontrar nuevos lugares para comer y salir con mis hijos. Sabe ocar el violonchelo, habla alemán y no le gustan los frutos secos. Le gustan casi odos los alimentos, excepto los muy picantes. Los postres ambién, pero sin frutos secos.
La Sra. Isom ha sido muy buena con uno de nuestros hijos al que no le gustaban las matemáticas. Ella permite a los niños elegir entre diferentes hojas de deberes de matemáticas. Esa elección ha hecho oda la diferencia del mundo. Ha eliminado la lucha de los deberes y ha ayudado a nuestros hijos a sentirse independientes y exitosos en una asignatura que no les gusta necesariamente.
