PROFESSIONAL SUMMARY

I am a self-directed, enthusiastic, goal oriented educator genuinely interested in and respectful of young people. I adapt effective teaching methods to meet the individual needs of each student. I love to infuse my students with the confidence and tools they need to be successful in life. I am skilled in meeting curriculum standards and objectives through engaging lessons. My lessons encourage higher-order thinking and problem solving through concept application in order to increase understanding, mastery, and student performance of the content area. I easily build collegial relationships across grade levels and academic disciplines. As well, I quickly establish and maintain collaborative relationships with students and parents. I excel in both working independently and as a productive team member.
