Summary
As I get close to finishing my AA degree in Education Elementary, I am more passionate about working with children, In my experience working at Grace Success Academy under the leadership of Mr.Coats, I learned so much about classroom management, student assessments, and curriculum building, and I was able to have a hands-on experiences with students in different grade-level. Furthermore, I was able to build that experience even more with an internship at West Homestead Center K-8, in Mrs. Castillo's 1st-grade class working and observing her classroom, I was able to learn more about the different learning sites students use today, fully grasp the concepts of educational standards, learn safety protocols, and observe how public schools function. To sum it up, I'm more motivated than ever to start with children and future educators like myself, I'm ready to be an inspiration to my community!
