Work Experience Teacher License - St Thomas Aquinas elementary School January 2017 to Present Prioritize the need that all students can and will learn, using data-driven lesson planning and and differentiated instructions. • Use the blended learning approach to diversify learning and personalize instructions. Also, maintain a running record of individual students as well as class performance on formative assessment results as a form of evaluating the teaching and learning process, more importantly as a guide to differentiate instruction. • Use a variety of both and informal assessments to monitor progress, create individualized action plans for struggling students in order to improve proficiency and mastery of math concepts. • Work with colleagues to write unit plans aligned with common core standards while putting huge emphasis on the Danielson framework of questionings in order to generate more students discussion. Metropolitan Lighthouse Charter school January 2015 to December 2017 Taught 8th grade Math/Algebra 1(Regents class). Used an interactive approach to teaching and learning to help scholars develop a conceptual understanding of mathematics, which, not only lead to higher achievement, but more necessarily a far greater aptitude in applying math skills to problem solving as well as making connections. Dr. Richard Izquierdo Charter School January 2014 to December 2015 Worked both as a Regents Prep teacher and an assistant teacher Responsibilities included to work with struggling students who needed to pass either the Common Core Geometry or Algebra Regents and also assisting teachers in both the Geometry and Algebra classrooms. I am very excited to say that our school has 90%+ of the students passing both the Common Core Geometry and Algebra Regents. I feel elated to be part of such accomplishment. Workshops: - Attended various workshops to enhance my personal pedagogical skills. MS Summer institute Main concentrations were on reinforcing students reasoning, communicating, and problem solving in Math. Also, teaching for, with, and about multiple intelligences. - Marilyn Burns’ “Math Solutions” This workshop mainly focus on developing students’ algebraic thinking from kindergarten to the upper grades. Miscellaneous: Integrate technology and other visual & physical aids into my lessons, in order to maximize Learning and mastery -Teach Math Regents to overaged groups as a preparation course to H.S. - Work as an independent SAT/Regents (Common Core algebra 1&2, and Geometry) math tutor.
