Summary
I'm currently pursuing my degree in Early Childhood Education and Care, Where I am learning about child development and effective teaching strategies. I have developed experience working with children by babysitting and attending my younger sisters playgroups and activities ( Play2LEarn at Duluth Middle School). I have good references from Elizabeth Dixon the PLay2Learn teacher. My main goal is to become a kindergarten teacher after graduation. This is why I am looking for a job opportunity to help extend my knowledge and experience in the education field. I am also bilingual in spanish and english. I was born in Pasadena, California with my first language being spanish. I feel that this skill could be a benefit in order to help and communicate with parents or other staff members. I plan in obtaining my CPR certification in the nest 30 days or sooner.
