Ava Arceo
Covina
Summary
I am a hard working and self-motivated worker who is eager to work and gain experience in the early childhood education field. I'm able to provide a positive and friendly attitude with my co-workers and students. My experience working with children has been delightful and overall taught me skills that I will use as a future educator. I have good time management, reliability, and open to gaining real-world experience. Feedback from my mentor will help me see what I can improve on and I will take that criticism into consideration so I can improve on my approaches. I aim to seek knowledge and develop problem solving skills to become a future kindergarten teacher.
