Objective

 

My objective is to guide my students on their path to educational excellence while maintaining my dedication as a life-long learner.

Summary of qualifications

 

For the past seven years, I have maintained an active role in various educational settings. As a student, a teacher and an administrator, I have held numerous roles from active learner to classroom leader.  I have experience working with students from preschool-age children to adult learners. Not only have I worked with students in the public school setting, but also as a volunteer coach and camp counselor. With an extensive technological background, I am capable of bringing curriculum to an elevated level.
