|Biographical data |
| |Summary: |
| |I am an extremely hard-working 28-year-old teacher with a passion for math, science, teaching, and learning at large. I consistently |
| |challenge myself to become a more dedicated educator each day and to refine my lessons to fit my students’ various abilities and learning|
| |styles. I have an untraditional background (steeped in engineering), but switched careers five years ago to teach adolescents in a |
| |well-established inner-city school of NYC. The last two years, I worked at a private American school in El Salvador and I am well-versed |
| |in all math courses between grades 8 and 11. I constantly share my resources and lesson material with my colleagues in order to |
| |incorporate their feedback into my teaching. I love to find new ways to engage children of all interest and performance levels and to |
| |continuously challenge their thinking. With a proven track record of success at every job (engineering or teaching), I believe that my |
| |excellent work ethic and adaptability will make me a great asset to your school. |
