I like kids and kids like me. I am easy to work with, a good communicator and I have excellent problem solving skills. I am a calm but enthusiastic educator. I create a positive classroom environment and effectively manage student behavior by way of seeing the good in all students.
All the Mom stuff, and some of the Dad stuff too (dad travels a lot), and the classroom volunteer stuff, and the PTA, and the youth sports coaching, and the church youth group leading, and all of the psychological warfare that comes with parenting teens, and ALL the crying that comes with getting ready to send them off to college.
Managed a territory covering the state of CA selling electronic medical records into outpatient healthcare clinics.
Those are the buzz words But the important thing is I like kids, and I see the best in them And they respond well to me because they KNOW I like them and believe in them So we learn and have fun and they are often surprised that they had such a great day with a "sub"
