Since the age of nine, I have always aspired to become a teacher. My mother inspired me to become reflective, creative and dedicated. I saw the way she instilled the love of education, stimulation and equity to her students within her classroom.
As an educator, I have the same aspirations to provide a sense of community in my classroom, through a loving, creative, motivating and inviting atmosphere. Teaching is my deepest passion because I want to instill the love of learning in all children at an early age. As an educator, I present the right tools for all my students to succeed. I provide a stimulating environment through beautiful varied materials so all learners can achieve their maximum potential.
During my college years, I was introduced to Lev Vygotsky’s sociocultural perspective on learning. My classroom emulates many of his thoughts on small groups, partners, diversity and cognitive development. As I continued my professional development Dr. Montessori and the Reggio community have given me a deeper insight into children and their immense capabilities. Creativity and reflection will be at the heart of all learning and teaching.
My portfolio is more than a representation of my current teaching style, but a constant reflection on becoming a 21st century educator.
Enjoy!
