Experience Summary
I bring 14 years of experience in elementary education with a proven record of results in increasing student achievement in math and language arts. For example, at the start of this past year, 70% of my students were ranked Proficient/Advanced, but at the end of the school year, 96% were rated Proficient/Advanced. I believe that I offer the instructional skills and abilities to be a strong addition to your faculty.

Moreover, I have demonstrated the creativity and initiative to originate and coordinate new programs.
Among my priorities as Science Lead Teacher is to serve as peer coach. I spend many hours in the classroom observing instruction and providing colleagues with feedback to assist them in preparing their daily lessons and activities.
You will find me to be a diligent and devoted professional committed to the challenge of motivating and shaping young minds. I have extensive knowledge of standards-based instruction. I am an active contributor to and supporter of the team process and have significant experience in the areas of curriculum development.
