Credential : Accredible : Certificates, Badges and Blockchain. (getsmarter.com) TEACHING:
Currently my teaching experience is limited to the simulated classroom experiences that were completed as a part of the ‘community college teaching certificate’ program at Cal State Dominguez Hills. There I took a class called “Effective College Teaching” where I designed a course, delivered lectures, and responded to various challenges as proposed by the instructor. This may be limited ‘experience’ but every teacher starts from a position having not taught previously. Therefore, given this training I feel I am ready to dive in and ‘get my feet wet.” MEMBERSHIPS:
