Objective

To obtain a teaching position in an elementary school or Early Childhood Center where I can
create life-long learners.

Philosophy

I believe that each child has unique strengths, varied prior learning experiences and preferred
learning styles. Therefore, instruction must be differentiated to provide enough challenge and
support for all children to build on successfully and to develop positive attitudes about learning.
I believe that powerful learning comes from emotional engagement which is why I plan on
bringing love, laughter, passion, and meaningful, personalized work into my classroom. In
order to create a foundation for a wonderful learning experience, I believe that respectful,
caring bonds with both children and their families must be created.

Qualifications/
Interests

My passion for riding horses has provided me the opportunity to instruct young children in
the sport of barrel racing. This experience has taught me how to enable my students to
learn through both their successes and failures.
I lived in Brussels, Belgium for four years and was educated in a multicultural environment.
This experience has taught me that there is no one singular approach that works in the
education of children.
