A Little Bit About Me...

My life has been filled with teaching and working with children. At the age of ninteen as a very young mother I felt a sense of duty in teaching my children how to achive higher than they can ever have imagined. I love to see the look of awe on their faces when they realize that they to can understand which ever subject that slips them. The rest is simple practice, practice, practice seals the deal. Then stride to the next hurdle. Each child has a different way of learning things. I find many times that a child can have to much or to little of something in their lives which interrupts their natural thought pattern. I believe if a child achieve good balance threw self disipiline that child will hold the key for successful learning.

Three years ago, I changed my career from being a Human Resources professional to pursue my lifelong dream of teaching school and coaching.

These include, substitute teaching various grades and subjects, middle school alternative education, after-school tutoring (1st-fifth grades, middle school and high school in language arts, math, social studies and science) and evening high school classes.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have obtained my Bachelors in human Services and completed the teaching certification program at Lonestar College. I have passed my content exams in special education ec-12 and the generalist 4-8. I will take my social studies 4-8 content next month. I have taught adults with special needs for two years. I am substituting in intermediate and middle school grades while seeking a teaching position. My passion in teaching is reading, writing and social studies.
My teaching style is differentiated teaching, as this combines many different learning styles and is able to reach most, if not all studens. I teach using many different hands-on activities, as I believe that it teaches real-world applications. I believe in texts/paper assignements but always try to back up the assignment with some type of real-world experience/scenario,; whether it be having the student give a speech, act ou ... read more
