Summary
Knowledgeable professional prepared for role of Educational Consultant. Extensive experience in crafting and executing educational strategies that enhance learning environments. Focused on team collaboration and consistently achieving impactful results. Strong in curriculum design and stakeholder engagement, known for adaptability and reliability.
With over 25 years of experience in education, a career is dedicated to fostering student growth and learning through innovative teaching methods and technology integration. On the onset of my teaching career as a Social Studies teacher, my guiding principle has been Benjamin Franklin's philosophy: 'Tell me and I forget, teach me and I remember, involve me and I learn.' A team is driven well through engagement, interactions, active listening and showcasing empathy and trust in staffing, students and parents. As a certified teacher in 2015, I found my learning has increased from practical classroom learning to academic research and development. A passion for incorporating technology and digital learning to provide valuable instructional materials for both teachers and students. Committed to supporting educators, there is an active focus on market coverage and customer engagement through collaboration with students, parents, and co-teachers while investigating outsourcing opportunities to bolster school improvement plans.
