I have 35 years of teaching experience. I am a professional driven to create an environment that promotes hands-on learning for children at all stages of the learning process. I am a motivated leader with extensive knowledge of the education system and educational testing standards. I am an exceptional communicator with advanced problem-solving skills. I am also professionally versed in collaborating with teachers and parents to best meet each individual's unique needs. I am attentive to the physical, emotional, intellectual and social needs of each student.

My teaching experience has been in the classroom setting and in small group instruction. I have taught in grades 2, 3, and 4. My small group instruction has been with high ability students, K-6, in reading, math, creative technology skills. I was selected one of eight teachers in 2009 from across the country as Innovative Educator for my work with using creative software with students to add pizzazz to their research work. This award was sponsored by Tech4 Learning software company. I am an expert in using the program Pixie, a creative software that helps students share their learning through text, original artwork, voice, and images.

I have experience working with a wide diverse student population. For 10 years I taught in the inner city of Omaha, NE. My second graders had difficulty with reading, using correct grammar and vocabulary. It was rewarding to watch a student coming into 2nd grade not having mastery of reading skills to leaving the classroom at the end of 2nd grade reading on grade level.

My undergraduate work was in Elementary Education. I had classes that taught basic phonic strategies. I was able to put all I learned into practice right away with an internship my senior year in an elementary 3rd grade setting where the students were emergent readers just beginning to learn how to read from a phonetic approach.

I have my Masters Degree in Instructional Technology. One of my jobs that I have had was at All Sa

Phonics

Phonics

I learned phonics teaching strategies in my Elementary Education program. I have had experience using phonics strategies, sight words, cvc, with beginning readers. I learned to read using phonetics: sounding out words, memorizing rules like the first vowel does the talking and the second vowel does the walking. I have used the same strategies with students and it works the best!
