Summary
I have been an enthusiastic assistant teacher for six years, which has helped instill a love of working with young children. Working as a school librarian infuses my two biggest passions, which are working with young students while promoting a love of reading. I am experienced in providing staff support in educational or childcare environments. I have worked with children individually and in small groups while providing basic reading, writing and math instruction and other education-related activities as assigned. I am extremely excited to work with students in a library environment to help them develop their own love of reading.
