Experience Summary
I have had two years of rewarding experience teaching first grade, in addition to student teaching in third and fourth grades while in New York City. For the last four summers I have worked with youth, ages 6-14, for the Albany, New York and Fort Myers YMCA’s as a Counselor and Swim Instructor.
I am excited about the opportunity to work for your company. I am confident that my combination of practical work experience has prepared me for making an immediate contribution to your school. I hope in the mass of resumes you receive, mine will help me stand out as someone you would like to meet. I would appreciate the opportunity to discuss how my education and experience will be helpful to you.
Teaching Style
During my teaching experiences I have equipped myself with a variety of techniques such as creating a fun, safe, and thriving environment to provide direct instruction to students using the Sun Shine State Standards and an established curriculum. I value individuality, and strive to meet the needs of each of my students. To accomplish this, I use a variety of hands-on activities and different teaching strategies to accommodate diverse learning styles. I also recognize the importance of trust, and successfully established relationships with students that result in a comfortable, yet challenging, learning environment. This also includes effectively communicating both verbally and in writing with parents regarding program and student progress.
