PROFESSIONAL SUMMARY
As a Medical Assistant Instructor, I support and energize students in their efforts to succeed, while modeling professional and positive interpersonal relationships with both the students and with colleagues. I continually participated in professional development opportunities, advise students on their academic development, and promote the development and effective use of skills in areas such as critical and analytical thinking, evaluation, communication, computation, problem solving and decision-making. I raise the expectation bar high and the students continually meet or exceed it.
