Experience Summary
I am a graduate of Rider University, with a Bachelor’s Degree in Elementary Education and Integrated Sciences and Mathematics, and a certification to teach Middle School Math. While student teaching I made numerous positive contributions at Columbus Elementary School in Trenton, New Jersey, as well as through my other previous practicum experiences.
I have obtained my Morris County Substitute Certificate to teach all subjects and grades. While substitute teaching for Morris Hills Regional School District and Denville Township I followed the full-time teacher’s lesson plans. I currently work as a personal aide with a student with multiple disabilities at Regional Day School at Morris.
The knowledge I gained from my education courses at Rider, the field assistance and student teaching experiences in the classroom, and the support by my mentors throughout my college career have provided me with the basic skills needed to become a highly qualified teacher. Substitute teaching and working as a personal aide have provided me with additional field experience to further develop these skills needed to become a quality educator.
