Being a college graduate has allowed me to pursue my dream of helping and working with children. I have earned a BS in Human Services with a concentration in Psychology, and am currently enrolled in a Master's program for Community Mental Health Counseling. Throughout my college career, I have attained extensive knowledge in regards to writing, reading, psychology, and study habits. In addition, I have excellent mathematical and communication skills. For the last eight years I have been a counselor and mentor for adolescents in the following areas: social skills, academics, life skills, and behavioral interventions.

Through cognitive coaching I formed relationships with these teachers, which allowed me to share my knowledge of best teaching practices in the reading content. As a mentor for the district however, my duties were similar to my coaching position, but I was accountable for supporting my mentees with research-based strategies that were applicable to all content areas.
My teaching philosophy centers first, and foremost, on the task at hand: educating every student I service. It appears that for the sake of the school’s overall achievement level on state tests, students that require critical and extensive attention are being ignored for lack of time. Because it is assumed that these stud ... read more
