ELEMENTARY SCHOOL TEACHER – EARLY CHILDHOOD MINOR
I am a dedicated teacher that always brings a positive and energetic attitude to my classroom. I have experience
working with and teaching children from the age of two to age eighteen. My experience has been set in the
classroom, in different out of school care, kindergarten, preschool, and toddler programs, and in my various
volunteer positions. My teaching philosophy is based on the believe that every students can learn and they can be
successful. I am also a firm believer that in order for a student to be successful, meaningful relationships must be built
with them and their families.

Experience
September 2014 | Current | Kindergarten Teacher
Neil M. Ross Catholic Elementary School | St. Albert
I am currently teaching a class of 15 Kindergarten students. I am responsible for their education academically,
socially, and emotionally. I spend a great deal of time talking to parents to build strong relationships with families. I
teach math, language arts, social studies, art, and physical education. I also focus on everyday routines and skills that
the students will have to know when moving on to the next grade.
February 2014 | April 2014 | Advanced Professional Term (Field Placement)
George H. Primeau Middle School | Morinville, Alberta
I primarily taught a grade 5 class with 23 students. I taught math, language arts, science, and physical education. I
created an individual reading group book club that the students self-monitored with guidance from myself. George H.
Primeau is a device friendly school where students are encouraged to bring their devices to school. I was able to
integrate this into my lessons and our daily discussions.
March 2013 | April 2013 |Introductory Professional Term (Field Placement)
Bishop Greschuk Catholic School | Edmonton, Alberta
I taught a group of 25 grade one students. I had a variety of needs that included autism, ODD, OCD, ADHD, and
anxiety disorders. This allowed me to accommodate for my students and adapt my lesson plans if needed. Technology
was a large part of our learning environment. Through the use of Twitter, my students were able to have daily
interactions with students in other districts, countries, and even their parents. I was able to help the Me to We group
at this school with the collecting of funds to build a well in Africa.
May 2010 | April 2014 | Daycare Worker
Kanga and Roo’s Childcare Centre | Morinville, Alberta
I have done programming and planning of the day-to-day activities for children age two through age ten. I have been
able to apply all of my university experience and placement experience to create meaningful and educational activities
for children at all ages. I have planned fieldtrips, arranged parent volunteers, and bussing.
