I have over 20 years' experience with children, youth and adults in education, character development, and mental health. I have worked with diverse populations in numerous settings. My teaching experience includes teaching K to 12th grades as lead teacher and subject teacher in whole classrooms, small groups and one-on-one settings. Also, teaching in community outreach with neighborhood youth and children providing classes in ESL, character development, self-expression, decision making, and self-advocacy. I have tutored elementary, middle, high school and college students in English, mathematics and the social sciences. I have trained teachers in neighborhood educational programs.
My mental health work gives me a rich experience to draw in supporting students in the familial and life factors that impact their learning. I am interested in supporting the educational process for all students in developing their educational goals and personal goals to be contributing members of society. I believe it is important to assist them in seeing the capacities they have within and then accompanying them to reach their potential.
I have certifications in TESOL/TEFL and TEYL.
My education coupled with my experience gives me a rich background to draw from in teaching and assisting in a classroom. I come with the ability to teach children and adults of different cultures and educational levels and to use numerous strategies in order to facilitate each student's learning.
