In May of 2010, I successfully completed my fourth year of teaching. Each year has been different. The children of today learn in many different ways. There has been a change in learning styles over the course of time. Some children may learn through hands on activities and modeling, while others learn through lecture. Regardless of the learning style, I have learned that it is my job to make learning relevant and meaningful to students. The role of the teacher is to be a facilitator. The teacher facilitates the students in making personal decisions as well as participates in discussions that affect society. The teacher also helps build a foundation in subject matter to help develop a lifelong appreciation and understanding of the world through different disciplines.

This is a time in their life where they are easy influenced, and I believe I can be a positive influence in this very important time in their life. I am patient, and believe every child has the right to have academic success. As a teacher, I believe it is my responsibility to help each student reach their maximum potential.

I enjoy teaching, and particularly teaching children and young adults. I am a patient, considerate teacher, and I am willing to review the materials as often as necessary to help the student succeed. I had the benefit of a nurturing tutor in high school, and her example has helped shape my world-view. I believe that remaining task-oriented and receptive to the needs of the individual are key to helping the student learn. No two students learn in the same manner, at least in my experience. The ability to recognize that and then to adapt is paramount. As a graduate of Duke University, I hold myself to the highest standards. I have spent the last ten years as a manager, and as such I have led numerous training courses for both hourly and exempt associates. In the community, I have taught pro bono ESL classes to a predominantly Hispanic community. During the course of my undergraduate

Teachers are considered as professionals and should carry themselves accordingly. It is not the salary which drives true teacher: it's the love for the children which are in their care. Children today face many challenges which can take their focus from learning. It is my desire to help children in school feel comfortable and safe as well as excited about learning. I want to be able to set positive examples for my children. I know that there will be a lot of materials that have to be covered, I also know that some children need more time to grasp certain concepts,this is where teachers have to be patient and gentle. My concerns for education are why I want to use every available resource afforded to me to help each child learn. I have worked with children ages 0-8 years old. Reading and Language Arts are my strongest subjects. I am also working Kids-N-Technology once a week as a assi

As a Special Educator I live off believing that all students can learn something. All students can achieve at something. I believe in support from others because I am no miracle worker, but I believe in support, repetion and dedication in learning. I am a hands on teacher. I use many approaches that will support the learning style of the student. I relate a lot of " real world" senarios to my teaching to help correlate the lesson. I also believe that if a student has the heart to achieve as I have to give him what he needs to achieve, then both of us are going to meet our goal of achievement. I am currently a Special Education teacher with Memphis City Schools. I have taught Pre-K through High School for over 15 years. I have tutored disabled and non-disabled students in Elementary, Middle and High schools. My goal is to work with the student gradually building from current learning le
