I design and implement engaging lesson plans to enhance student understanding of core subjects. Every day I foster a positive classroom environment that encourages student participation and collaboration. Monthly I assess student progress through formative and summative evaluations, adapting instruction as needed for each child. I continually develop individualized education plans for students requiring additional support to improve learning outcomes. I collaborate with my team weekly to offer help and guidance to the less experienced people. Planning and executing a "Parent University" night in order to help parents better understand how to implement ideas in which to increase their children's learning.
