Summary

I have had the opportunity to work with both typical and special needs children, gaining extensive experience in the process. Alongside my Bachelor's degree in the field of education, I am currently pursuing my Associate degree. My passion for child development and my ongoing efforts to enhance my teaching methods have made me an effective professional in education and childcare. With my flexibility, patience, and communication skills, I aim to adapt to children's learning processes and support them effectively.
