Experience Summary
As a graduate with a Master's Degree in Elementary Education and a Rank I in Computer Education, I fill that I am highly qualified for this position. I have taught reading from various grade groups ranging from kindergarten on up to fourth grade. I have taken struggling fourth graders who were reading on first grade level and brought them up to their grade level. I currently teach my students how to read using the Rigby books that the Jefferson County School District has provided for us. I also use various reading interventions. I have made great success in teaching students from various backgrounds. For example: Students who are from Mexico, Somalia, and students with IEP's.
Teaching Style
I truly enjoy teaching. I believe that a child can learn anything, as long as they have a supportive learning environment. I belive that I have a unique teaching style. I am a whole language and phonetic teacher. I like to teach my children using the multiple intelligences, because we all learn in different ways. When I incoropate my lessons using the multiple intelligences I see great achievements in each and every child in my classroom. The joy that is shown on their faces when they have mastered reading is a very rewarding feeling. I feel that I am a hard worker, and that I give one hundred and ten percent in any task that I am given. My goal in my classroom is to make sure that all my students can read and apply math skills.
