Welcome to my Professional Portfolio.
This portfolio is designed to provide the viewer with
an overview of my professional competencies and capabilities as well as
describe my teaching philosophies.
You will find evidences of these capabilities in the
Professional Categories section
by way of lesson plans, rubrics, formal observations and letters of
recommendation. There are also pages in this portfolio showing
several pictures of me taken during my student teaching and a short
movie taken during an enthusiastic cooperative
learning lesson.
You can also gain a bit of insight into me personally
by checking out my Inspirational
Quotes page (educationally inspirational), as well as the
About Me and Resume
pages.
|
Here you can learn about me as a person and find out why I
decided to pursue teaching as a career.
(This picture was taken by one of my
students. They were coached on picture-taking and are
responsible for taking pictures for the Wings Certificates that
students receive in school for doing good deeds or helping in
the Rainforest Cafe. I helped them with technical training on
the camera, and how to print and resize pictures in MS Word.) |
Here you can learn about my personal teaching philosophies that
include hands-on learning, differentiated instruction,
technology integration, developing performance tasks to appeal
to multiple intelligences and otherwise creating a sense of
discovery and joy of learning.
