What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that allows me to create inclusive learning environments and foster student growth.

As a passionate educator, I am committed to developing effective classroom communities that stimulate intellectual growth for learners of all ages and abilities. My experience spans various roles, including Special Education SETSS Teacher and Elementary Teacher, where I have successfully designed and implemented curricula tailored to meet diverse student needs.

Throughout my career, I have taught multiple small groups, organized IEP meetings, and monitored individual goals for over 30 students. My dedication to fostering an inclusive environment is reflected in my ability to prepare students for state exams, achieving remarkable results, such as 100% of my fourth-grade science students scoring the highest possible grade on the New York State Exam.

With a Master’s Degree in Childhood Education and Special Education, I hold New York State Professional Certification for Childhood Special/General Education. I am eager to continue making a positive impact in the field of education, ensuring that every student has the opportunity to succeed.
