Additional Information
I have spent 22 years in a classroom, and would love to switch gears in what I am now doing in relationship to education. I'm looking for a remote job and our time at home teaching during Covid definitely prepared me for that type of work. I am motivated, hardworking and love the education field. I am eager to learn and determined to do well in any role.
