Teaching the way that my students learn best.

I have teaching experience with both general education and special education on the middle school level as well as the elementary level through my private school experience. I am currently a general education reading teacher who has high expectation of all of my students. My teaching experience includes working with general education and team taught settings with students who have various IEP’s goals and objectives for the past 6 years. As a teacher, I think that it is very important to meet the needs of the whole child as well as their educational needs. I strive to show my students respect, honesty, kindness, and a kind heart at all times. In doing so, I have achieved many success moments with encouraging my students to meet their goals and objectives.

Poetry is one of my top subjects! I have a Bachelor of Arts in Creative Writing Poetry and Prose which includes extensive studies in American, British, World Poetry; Epic Poetry; Modern and Post-Modern Poetry; Emily Dickenson; poetic analysis and close reading.

I have taught 6th, 9th, 10th, 11th, and 12th grade students. I expect hard work and dedication. I use classroom-tested teaching strategies that include but are not limited to role-play, reader-response, kinesthetic and tactile movement, drawing, and holistic engagement in the "story-world" to help students understand and connect to the literature. I am patient.

A Little Bit About Me...

I love working with not only the students but the parents as well; this will help the parent(s) have some understanding and can work with child as well. I enjoy working with all types of children; my goal is to help the child and the parent to understand and get the best education that he/she could possilby get. I believe in the no child left behind program. I like to answer a question with a question and get the student to think and answer the question on their own with some supervision. I am a hand on teacher. I like to show them how to do it first and then let the individual ask question and do the next problem.

My teaching style is a combination of training and techniques that I have learned from my professors and leaders.I truly feel that every child is unique which is why every child learns differently.I like to take the time out and ask the child about his or her stregnths and weaknesses and how they feel they best learn.I am an extremely patient,careing and passionate individual.It is a saying that what affects one affects us all and when it comes to education the saying holds true.Due to the fact that I have been blessed to have a great education I would like to pay it forward and educate others.

A Little Bit About Me...

I love working with children of all ages, and like combining education with fun. I am a thoughtful, creative, and patient teacher, and like to encourage children to approach problems and questions in their own way, frequently with examples and projects that will better illustrate a subject area. I feel I have many unique skills and attributes to offer your program. Raised in a multi-cultural environment, I am bilingual in Italian, fluent in Spanish, and proficient in French and Portuguese. I have traveled to more than 35 countries, frequently alone, and love sharing the interesting tales and adventures that I've had around the world, and let them influence my interactions with others.
I recently completed a Youth Staff contract aboard Royal Caribbean. Along with entertainment, we promoted learning and creativity, offering educational activities through science experiments, and exp ... read more
