Summary
I’m a dedicated woman with a passion to work with students at multiple grade levels. I specifically work best with kids the age of 4 and older. I find enjoyment in teaching and helping people with educational activities. I can provide head teachers/ staff with as much support as they need in all aspects of management. As a teacher, I aim to establish long-term relationships with students as well as support their parents by ensuring that their children's development is being supported. My abilities include being open-minded to new experiences, leading individual and group instruction, and developing my teaching and service skills whenever I have the opportunity.
