Work experience
Paraprofessional
Essex community school district - Essex, IA
February 2024 to Present
I work one on one with a child that needs a little extra care and attention to develop to their fullest potential in their classroom of peers. I document their day, as far as their emotions and outbursts are concerned. I work with them in special circumstances to make sure they are learning what and how they need to learn. I help them blend in with their peers to become a more structured, collected and aware of one-self while learning healthy ways to play and express themselves.

I ran the tax preparation office smoothly and effectively to promote our services to the fullest and highest quality. I prepared the schedule for my staff according to the time needed off for vacation days and arranged staff when people had to call in. I had management meetings via zoom weekly, and in person meetings monthly. I emailed tech, management, the IRS, and present and future customers.
