I fostered a supportive learning environment at Mount Olive Lutheran Preschool, significantly improving student engagement through differentiated instruction. Fluent in Spanish, I leveraged this skill to enhance communication and understanding. My approach, blending critical thinking with a growth mindset, consistently motivated students and strengthened parent-teacher relationships. As a student, I worked on an intensive 25-page research paper demonstrating constructive essential thinking skills. I explored old and new perspectives on how history has changed in a new era and how research can raise new questions as a history undergraduate student.
