Sara Olson

My job duties include providing great customer service by helping or answering customer questions in the store or on the phone. I work on projects and duties as assigned by my manager, and supervise staff members and assign duties while keeping projects on track.

Some specific responsibilities I have are opening and closing the store, doing daily paper work and preparing bank deposits and ensuring cash is being handled properly. And keeping the front end organized and running smoothly.

Stocking Shelves and organizing shelves.

My number one objective was to encourage learning and help parents build confidence in knowing they are their childs number one and most important teacher. I would write individual and specialized lesson plans for each of my 12 students, considering each childs needs, personality or developmental progress or disability, to take into the home each week and guide the parent in doing fun learning activities with their child using the Parents as Teachers curriculum.

I offered support to families by helping find community resources if they were needing help and provided as much emotional support as was appropriate.

I worked from a home office and was responsible for staying on task and completing duties without being supervised closely. Office duties included inputting student observations, keeping track of attendance and documenting absences, scheduling home visits and class activities.

I worked well individually and also blended well when meeting or working with the other teachers or staff at the local center or other home visitors from our agency.
