Summary
I am very passionate about teaching and tutoring children of all ages. I have much experience working in classrooms and tutoring children at the elementary school level. I have had the opportunity to develop lesson plans for all school subjects, along with teaching those lessons in the classroom. I am experienced with curriculum development, ensuring educational content meets all California State Standards. I have a strong understanding of classroom management techniques in order to maintain a calm, respectful, safe, productive, and engaging learning environment. I am highly skilled at motivating students through positive encouragement and reinforcement of concepts via interactive classroom instruction and observation. I have been grateful enough to have the opportunity to make differences in children's lives and help them improve academically. I hope that I can continue to do so throughout the rest of my career.
