- 0:57Speaker 1: nominate Michael Pereira. He's been a teacher for sixteen years
- 1:00Speaker 1: and within those sixteen years, he's gone above and beyond.
- 1:04Speaker 1: In the beginning of Michael's career, he taught in the
- 1:07Speaker 1: inner cities of Newark, New Jersey. Since Michael was from
- 1:10Speaker 1: the community and grew up there, he totally immerses himself
- 1:14Speaker 1: with the kids, setting an example and had a true
- 1:17Speaker 1: understanding of their hardships. But wait, there's more, Christine.
- 1:21Speaker 3: Michael was committed to going above and beyond, making sure
- 1:24Speaker 3: that he had an open door policy for students where
- 1:27Speaker 3: any type of assistance that the students needed to learn,
- 1:29Speaker 3: he'd be available, coming in earlier before school would start,
- 1:33Speaker 3: staying later, also offering tutoring to other students and school
- 1:36Speaker 3: districts that needed extra assistance. Michael, currently at sixteen years
- 1:41Speaker 3: of teaching, is now in a new district. Although Michael's
- 1:44Speaker 3: gone through some curveballs in his life, He's managed to
- 1:47Speaker 3: stay positive and keep pushing through. Michael, where are you
