Driven special education student teacher with immersive classroom experience.
What I'm looking for
As a dedicated student teacher specializing in special education, I have accumulated over two years of hands-on classroom experience across various grade levels. My proficiency in creating and executing tailored lesson plans allows me to foster inclusive environments that cater to diverse learning needs. I excel in collaboration and communication, leveraging my strong interpersonal skills to effectively engage with students, colleagues, and families.
My experience includes serving as a Lead Day Camp Counselor at YMCA, where I supervised the safety and well-being of campers while planning and teaching age-appropriate curriculum. Additionally, I have worked at SkyZone Trampoline Park, where I built trusting relationships with customers, particularly children on the spectrum. Currently, I am a participant in the Center for Inclusive Excellence, where I observe students in an urban school setting and engage in leadership training.
Committed to continual improvement, I am dedicated to empowering students to reach their full potential. I actively seek feedback from mentors and peers to refine my teaching techniques and improve instructional effectiveness. I am eager to contribute positively to the educational journey of every learner.
