What I'm looking for
As a dedicated K-6 educator with a Bachelor of Science degree in Elementary Education and a minor in Psychology, I am passionate about fostering engaging and effective learning environments. My teaching philosophy centers around creating hands-on, real-world learning experiences that inspire students to explore and grow. With a strong academic background and a commitment to student success, I have developed lesson plans that cater to diverse learning styles and promote critical thinking.
Throughout my career, I have gained valuable experience in various educational settings, including my role as a High School Agriculture Teacher, where I delivered instruction for grades 7-12 and supervised student engagement with the FFA organization. Additionally, my experience as a substitute teacher across multiple districts has equipped me with the ability to adapt quickly and maintain a positive mindset towards student learning. I believe in building trusting relationships with students and ensuring a safe and supportive classroom environment.
