I believe that learning should be fun and that a teacher's enthusiasm and energy and excitement with the curriculum are critical to motivating students to learn. Additionally, as a teacher, I am committed to remaining current with any new, progressive learning strategies, teaching methods and resources, and the latest technologies, that would advance the learning experience.

Despite a demanding, accelerated academic schedule, during my three years at a competitive private college I voluntarily tutored underprivileged elementary students. In earning my BA in Sociology/Anthropology I became well versed on understanding people from a variety of cultural and economic backgrounds. I also have a strong background in the social sciences including social studies, history and language arts. My college major also required that I write numerous papers and helped me to develop a strong writing style, as well as a keen understanding of grammar. After moving overseas in 2004, I began substitute teaching at an elementary/middle school for two years. The experience I gained there was extensive and I am now comfortable working with children from pre-K through 8th grade, on a variety of levels and topics. My whole life I have had a love of education. I look forward
