Summary

I am an Urban Early Education major at Metropolitan State University seeking an opportunity to student teach and apply my education in a practical setting. As a first-generation immigrant, I possess a unique perspective that helps me understand and assess a student's potential and needs. I am bilingual and fluent in Spanish.
I have experience working with individual students, managing their behavior, collecting data, collaborating with teachers, and maintaining a tidy classroom. I learn quickly, work well with others, and understand the importance of student data confidentiality. I am always punctual and have a solid foundation in educational support and classroom management.
My background includes assisting teachers with instructional tasks and fostering a positive learning environment. I am a reliable team player who adapts easily to changing needs and aims to achieve results through effective communication and collaboration.
