I am a highly motivated and reliable employee with a desire to take on new challenges. I have a strong work ethic, and I like to put forth all efforts into anything I do, while devoting myself to giving every child a positive and memorable experience. I am a hardworking substitute teacher with skills to step into any classroom environment and support student needs, with excellent discussion management, teaching, and mentoring abilities. I enjoy working with every child I step into class with, no matter the ability, and I like to think I am a good, positive role model.
