As an individual with a background in a variety of different fields, I have had the opportunity to discover my passion for the education and development of young children. I believe in the importance of a positive environment for both staff and students while maintaining the highest standards of work.
During my time as a paraprofessional in the special education department, I was able to help students one on one or in groups with their daily studies and needs. Daily learning integrated with helping students in their everyday life was a rewarding and positive position.
My duties included bringing students to their classes and working on assignments with them, ensuring the safety and assisting in hygiene. Each day was different and I learned to be very versatile while valuing the importance of education.
The Plainsman local newspaper trained me to be a jack of all trades in print media. My duties ranged from conducting interviews, writing articles, photographing many community events, as well as graphic design, website design, page layout, plus much more.
I was able to learn many skills and make many connections within the community.
