The words that describe my personality are caring, trustworthy and friendly. I like working with kids as a certified teacher because they are interested in learning new things. I enjoy working with kids I have patience. As a caregiver, I am a good listener. I started working with kids as a proud mother of three son's ages 18, 14 and 12. As mom, we took field trips to Home Depot, Lowes, and the area public libraries for fun summer learning activity. Then, I started working with kids as a licensed child care provider in my home. I have 5 years of experience. Currently, I have 4 years of experience working with kids in education as a Substitute Teacher and Paraprofessional. I currently work in the West Bloomfield School District in Elementary. Last summer, I worked with kids as a 7th Grade ELA and Math credit recovery teacher along with being Read more a K-5 Summer Enrichment Program Coordinator. My skills include tutoring, leadership, and guidance.
