Work History
Yard-duty Supervisor, Para-educator

- As a yard-duty supervisor I monitored students during recesses, lunches, and the transitions insuring student safety and compliance with district and school rules. I addressed conflicts between students promptly using de-escalation techniques, minimizing disruptions to the overall school environment.
- As a para-educator, I was assigned to a full-inclusion student within a general education classroom to help the student reach their IEP goals. I provided constructive feedback on assignments, empowering students to take ownership of their learning and academic growth. I helped to improve student comprehension by incorporating visual aids and real-life examples into lesson plans.
