Summary

With a year of teaching experience, I am compassionate and well-established in providing support to students in early education. I excel in creating lesson plans and assessing student progress, and I am dedicated to nurturing the emotional, social, and academic development of young children. My training in developmental stages equips me with the knowledge to offer safe and encouraging environments. I am committed to complementing education-based strategies with techniques that promote the overall social and emotional wellness of all children and their families. After graduating with my associate's degree in Early Education in May 2025, I plan to continue my education by earning a bachelor's degree at Cal State.
