Summary

I am an organized and dependable educator with a proven track record of achieving academic excellence for students while fostering a fun and creative learning environment. Through collaborating with fellow educators and other team members, I've been a key member of several initiatives that strengthened the performances of students at the primary eduction level, particularly in the subjects of Reading, English, Language and Art (ex. 2024 Benchmark results of 92% passing rate with 52% of students at Mastery Level) . I am proficient at managing multiple priorities with a positive attitude and I have demonstrated the willingness to take on added responsibilities to meet team goals.
