Mr. White enjoys using P.E. activities as teaching tools to help children learn important "life skills" such as sportsmanship, teamwork, self-discipline, respect for themselves and others, etc. His motto is that "winning isn't everything, but trying is." He has a passion for children to do their best regardless of the outcome and to be a source of encouragement, support, and understanding of their specific needs. He tries to do whatever he can so the child feels they have succeeded in the specific endeavor.
