Summary
Enthusiastic preschool teacher with three years' experience in grades K-8, with a specialization in Art. I have had the opportunity to discover and understand the needs of today's students, both emotionally and academically. The development of students' self-esteem and skills are of equal importance in my current and future classroom.
