@kathrynbryant
Proactive early childhood educator and student-focused classroom support specialist.
What I'm looking for
I am a proactive and versatile early childhood educator and student support specialist with hands-on experience across classrooms, childcare centers, and retail customer service. I adapt quickly to new challenges, mentor students, and implement behavior-management strategies that promote positive outcomes.
My background includes substitute teaching, student teaching, tutoring, and childcare roles where I developed lesson-adaptation skills, classroom management techniques, and the ability to build strong relationships with students, families, and colleagues. I maintained a strong academic record in high school while holding part-time work and leadership roles in extracurricular activities.
I bring leadership, teamwork, and communication strengths to every role—having served as a team captain, student organization vice president, and co-founder of a campus club—and I am committed to supporting team success and fostering safe, productive learning environments.
