I love teaching and working with children. I love the joy that children get on their faces when they finally understand the concepts that they are trying to learn. I try to make learning fun by incorporating games into the educational process. The children have a better time focusing when learning is enjoyable. I have a BA in Political Science with a concentration in American Government and minor in Philosophy from The Catholic University of America. During college, I worked at the Carbon County Courthouse in Jim Thorpe, Pennsylvania in Court Administration. I also worked as a Government Affairs Intern for the National Hydropower Association, a Congressional Intern for Representative Paul E.

As a second year teacher, I have much experience working with children of various ages. I have taught Kindergarten, Fourth Grade, and I am currently teaching First Grade. I also have had the opportunity to work with students (elementary & secondary) with special needs during my college breaks. Working a wide range of ages of children has helped me to understand their capabilities at a specific age. I have always treasured working with children. I found my interest when I started babysitting at age 11. I quickly found that my time spent having fun and entertaining children was something I truly enjoyed. As a educator, I understand that all students learn differently. I work at getting to know all my students on a individual level. This helps to keep student’s interests in mind and incorporate it into what we are currently learning. Paying attention to all learning styles in the classroom

I believe teaching others a skill or new information is a gift, to both myself and the student. When the light goes off in their head, and the "I got it!" look comes across their face, I feel a sense of accomplishment. I am very patient, and understand that each student learns at their own speed. Additionally, I know that each student is different, which will sometimes require a new teaching technique. I believe everyone can learn; sometimes it just takes the right teacher for the right student. I was a teaching assistant for three of my four years at the University of Delaware. I taught courses, as well as tutored students and graded exams. Additionally, I have a great deal of experience in sciences and english, specifically biology and microbiology, as well as excellent grammar skills.

As a student who has dabbled in so many areas, it is easy for me to assess when a teacher/professor is not explaining a concept in a method that helps the students. I have previous experience tutoring, but my teaching talent comes from my role as the unofficial tutor for most of my classes. I can see why students are missing the concept and I am creative enough to devise new approaches. I am a successful graduate of Susquehanna University, having earned a BA in International Studies. This study of cultural anthropology allowed me ample experience with writing, grammar, and research. I will be attending Rutgers University next year to earn a Master of Science degree in Microbiology. I am very experienced in the subjects of Biology, Chemistry, and Math on all levels. In addition to my devotion to the sciences, I have maintained an advanced-conversational level of fluency in French and an a

I am a firm believer that if a student is allowed and taught to think independently, they will discover their own way of learning. Each student is different in the way in which they tackle various subjects, it is important as the educator to understand that approach and encourage the student to discover learning through that approach. Some students are kinetic learners, some are visual learners while others are aural learners; it is vital that the instructor be able to teach in all of those areas. I have taught over 200+ kids each year, from those with learning disabilities to students with an alarming amount of aptitude for dance; I am flexible enough to be able to work with various types of children simultaneously. I am incredibly patience, easy going and have the drive needed to help children learn. With a BS degree in Information Technology, minor in Religion and currently pursuing a

As an educator and mother, I have learned to be patience with kids and that is important for a teacher. Some kids require more time to learn than others do. I am persistence, tolerant, and love to challenge their little minds with didactic games. I think that listening to children is important to understand their needs. I also believe that sometimes leaning and fun can go hand and hand, and having a sense of humor sometimes makes things easier. Kids love to learn new things and so do I. I think my curiosity is one of my principal qualities; I am very curious in leaning. I am enthusiastic, responsible, respectful, fair and mature. I am happy with my work and sometimes think that I could not live if I were not able to teach. I have struggle and work hard to achieve my goals and was always hungry for knowledge. I came to this country in search of a better future, but without hard work this
