Experience Summary
I currently teach Adult Education; High School Completion with Detroit Public Schools from 08/2508-present. I relocated to West Palm Beach, Fl. from Southfield, Michigan back in July 2004 and taught 6-7th grade Language Arts/Intensive Reading at both Lake Shore Middle and Palm Beach Central High for Palm Beach County Schools from August 2004-June 2007.
I feel that working with disadvatnage students has helped me in becoming an even better and more efficient educator because of my emphatetic nature and drive to see all my students' successful both in and out of the classroom.
Teaching Style
I feel that I have much aptitude and empathy for students’ successful endeavors in the classroom and I will do my part in making sure that my lessons will be integrated, promote creative thinking, and help the students develop decision- making skills. Social interaction will be used because it is an important aspect of life but individuality will be stressed so that the students learn to be leaders not followers. The concept of being proud of yourself and your beliefs but being aware of other peoples’ beliefs will be used to teach respect for each other and create positive self-esteem in each student.
