Summary
I have enjoyed working with all ages of children since I was in high school. I started by volunteering at a daycare three days a week for over a year. I helped out in any classroom that was needed. That job started my love of teaching and getting to be apart of someone’s education journey. While volunteering in high school I also took care of a lady who had Alzheimer’s which also showed me compassion and lots of patience. Whether it’s through a classroom setting or in the comfort of their home, I always provide a safe and encouraging environment no matter where I am. I will always try my hardest and give any job I am assigned my all.
