About Me
Introduction:
I am an experienced educator with familiarity with the US public school system at the elementary, secondary and post-secondary levels. Coupled my experience leading enrichment outdoors and service activities, I would make an engaging teacher to learners of all ages.
I believe that language acquisition hinges on active participation, and strive to create an engaging classroom that addresses each student's communicative needs. My certification through Hamline University entails rigorous in-class pedagogical instructions and at least 20 hours of practicum teaching observed by experienced faculties.
I believe that I am a valuable addition to any school that value experience and creativity.
