I have been an educator for almost 20 years. I began my teaching career as a substitute teacher and immediately fell in love with teaching children with special needs. Desiring to continue to teach, I finished a Master's degree which gave me the endorsements to teach K-12 children with special needs. Since then, I have taught reading and mathematics to both children with special needs and regular education children at the elementary, middle, and high school levels. As I gained a greater thirst to do more to help children, outside of teaching in the public school setting, I bagan tutoring. Between teacing within the public school and tutoring outside of the public school setting, I gained a great deal of experience when it comes to identifying strategies that cause children to learn and retain what they have learned. After all was said and done, I finally capped my educational aspi

Teaching is my passion and I believe that by teaching I can instill firm educational values in children and help develop within them a desire to learn and grow, which will lead to academic pride and success. I’ve taught for five years at Public School 94 in the Bronx, NY and two years in Woodbridge, VA. Working as a New York City public school teacher has allowed me to acquire valuable skills and experience needed to build a solid foundation for my teaching career. Working with students, parents/guardians, and co-workers from diverse backgrounds has enriched and heightened my cultural sensitivity and understanding and has enabled me to meet the needs of a rich and diverse population. Guided by experiences in my life and lessons I’ve learned through teaching, I’ve come to understand that all children learn differently. My goal is to first determine where the students need help, based o

I am actually in the process with my students, their victories are my victories. I want my students to be proud of the work that they have done and the achievements that they have made. I give my students the information, I show them how to apply the information through modeling, I practice with them and then I release them to apply the technique themselves. Afterward I assign an project for an artifact that allows them through written words to translate their knowledge to another person. It is my goal to prepare them for life outside of the classroom, failure is not an option. I have a proven success rate in assisting my students in excelling on standardized tests. In the 2007-2008 school year my students achieved double digit gains on the MSAs (Middle School Assessments).

I love being a teacher. I have worked with many different children. I have taught children who speak other languages. I have taught children and have been a success.

As an outdoor educator and teacher I have had substantial experience in education and leadership. I find a great deal of fulfillment in teaching new skills and working with students to solve problems and achieve goals. It is my personal philosophy that, given a constructive and nurturing environment, positive role models and an emphasis on personal responsibility, every child can excel, enjoy learning and discover his/her individual strengths. I believe in educating the whole child and encouraging students to take an active role in their own education. I am fun and creative, hard working, very patient and level-headed and highly organized. I am highly literate and very articulate. As a high school student I excelled in several Advanced Placement English and Literature classes.

I enjoy working with a wide variety of kids. Every child has the ability to be sucessful if they are reached in the right way, and that is my goal in teaching. Patience plays a large role in finding the correct learning method for each child and that is where I shine. Some of my best overall experinces in teahing have come from the more difficult students who have stuggled in school or have been turned off by school all together. There is nothing more rewarding than to see all of the hard work pay off once the student is headed in the right direction. I have been working for the past two years at a school in Washington, DC. There I was a full-time substitute for grades K-8 and was the assistant director to the after-school program. After I spent five years in the finacial planning field, I realized my passion for working with youth through coaching basketball. Two years ago I changed car
