Experience
OBJECTIVE While my career path in education has been diverse, I have maintained a constant commitment to helping children reach their full potential, academically, as well as socially and emotionally. I feel learning should be fun and interactive giving children time to explore and express themselves. Throughout my career I have always strived to adapt the curriculum to the needs of each individual child to ensure his or her success. I am a very conscientious, organized and hard- working person. My strengths as a teacher lie in my adaptability, flexibility and creativity, as well as my ability to work well as part of a team.
