I graduated from Central Michigan University with a Bachelor Degree in Elementary Education/Child Development (ZA Endorsement). From that point on, I subbed in various elementary schools, including Rockford and Comstock Park. I obtained a kindergarten position at St. Adalbert School in the fall of 1996 and taught there for four years. I then transferred to St Paul the Apostle School in 2000, where for the past 10 years I have taught first grade. I earned my Master's Degree in Reading in the year 2003, which made me qualified to be a reading specialist. I hold high expectations for all my students to achieve the best that they can do. I am aware that there are various learning styles in the classroom, especially with first grade!

What more better experience then to start at home by helping my little brother and sister. For the past five years I have tutored my brother and sister in many different subjects. I have done math, reading, science,history. Basically all elementary subjects.I am Bilingual and speak both English, and Spanish fluently. I try to make the subjects fun for them. For example i bring out cubes, candy, or fruits for math problems so they can visually see the mathamatical problem. If its science I try to make 3D projects so they can better understand, for example the solar system. I try to get there intrest so they can have fun and not be bored and feel like its a waist of time. I know everyone learns in different ways and I understand that because im the same way. Im very patient, and very easy going. My goal is to give them the education they need to succeed in life.

As a multidisciplinary artist and educator, I am committed to the holistic approach of a liberal arts curriculum. I enjoy sharing my broad range of experiences with students of all backgrounds and skill levels. As a teacher I like to see students make progress toward significant artistic discoveries, and continue to be amazed at just how rewarding being an educator can be. Painting, drawing, and design are the best ways that I communicate with the world and I am passionate about helping others find their own creative "voice". Additionally, I have experience as an admissions counselor for Kendall College of Art and design and am uniquely suited to help students meet the requirements necessary for college entrance. I believe it is a teacher's responsibility to help students grow creatively and technically. The teacher/student relationship shouldn't be intimidating, but instead should cre

I believe that all students have the ability to learn if given the opportunity to learn. All students have different learning styles, and it is the teaches job to discover and teach students how to reach their potential. I have a friendly, firm, and fair approach with all students. I respect them, therefor they respect me. I am highly perceptive and use this as a tool when teaching students. I have a wonderful ability managing tasks, and developing valid beneficial learning experiences. I believe that students need to learn information correctly and with purpose. I would be an excellent choice for art students wanting some creative guidance. I earned my Bachelor of fine art's degree in studio art and a minor in art history. While earning my Bachelor's degree I taught a beginning ceramics course, worked as a ceramic technician and a shop technician for my university. I taught at a private
