Summary

I am a retired teacher with many years of experience in most areas of education. I would love to use what I've learned through the years to help guide and support student teachers as they begin their journey in the classroom. I have experience in observation and evaluation and I believe my skills could be put to good use in your program. I appreciate consideration as a field supervisor for student teachers within your program. Thank you.
