Summary

With a proven track record at Harmony School of Achievement, I excel in classroom management and phonics instruction, enhancing student learning outcomes. My collaborative spirit and organizational skills significantly contributed to a respectful, inclusive educational environment, fostering strong family-school partnerships and achieving notable advancements in students growth. During my time there, my love of math develop a new job to help students K-2nd have early intervention for students falling behind. I was honored to be named Interventionist of the year. Teaching first grade students also developed my love for running records, love of reading, and interventions at all levels of learning. Identifying ESL students by the current Texas ESL standards became part of my contribution to the small school. I learned many skills during this period that contributed to my successful scores throughout each year. I took many seminars of identifying gifted and talented students, identifying gifted and talented students with special needs, and how to have an ESL standard learning classroom. Throughout my many stages of my career, I have learned that children and teaching are my passion and life.
