I am naturally a nurturer, my daughter was born

deaf, so this put me in a very sensitive place.

When I was hired I attended workshops that

taught me how to read the countenance of the

student.

My duties were to assist the teacher in all

and every way she needed help.

Grading, any clerical duties needed

Transitioning students to all classes

Bathroom breaks, Take to cafeteria for lunch.

Do my best to redirect the student when he/she

were irritated.

Each day was a new adventure, this particular

population had many emotional issues.

But as the years and months went on I enjoyed

encouraging each one that they were able

to rise above their obstacles.

The afterschool programs that I was asked

to be the music director was also a challenge

but I enjoyed it.

I also helped with Regents prep during the

year .

I am looking for a change now, I'm close by

in Rochdale Village.

I know that I will be an asset to the school.

Your nomination will be greatly appreciated.

Thank You

I was selected with 5 other staff by the principal to erect a school

mural in the school lobby.

We also did other paintings for the unit hallways upstairs

We did a replica of Starry Night on the Upper School wall.

I learned to work peacefully with other staff painting, following

any instructions that were given to me.

It was very rewarding to see each piece after they were done.

My job was to teach each student the lyrics to each number, some

I pulled in to do voice warm ups when I saw that he or she had

individual vocal talent.

These productions were Junior productions especially foundated

for schools. (Scool House Rock Junior, Aladdin Junior, Broadway

Junior). It was challenging because of the behaviors at times

but I worked with them and the music flourished and each

production was beautiful.

My music background helped me build a rapport with the

students as time went on, it was a joy.

The music scores were done by soundtracks that were

provided by each company, they contained song books

production sheets for each Director, we also had t shirts

made for each production.

All of te Directors worked together during rehearsels to be

sure that the production would gel each week.
