I use it when a child gets sick or when I need to get in contact with the parents during and after school hours and it helps me get to know each child better.

Experience
Teaching has always been my passion in life ever since I was a child I remember role playing as a teacher to my younger brother. I have always loved children and I'm so happy to have picked this career. Before becoming a Elementary School teacher I began working in a local daycare as a Group Teacher teaching kindergarten. I have been teaching for about 21 years. I am currently the K-2 ENL teacher at my school.
Teaching style
I believe children should have lots of hands on activities. Teachers should get to know each of his/her students and think of fun teaching tools that would enhance their learning. Teachers should also look at the child's learning modality and adjust his/her teaching to get to those kids. I strongly believe in using literature to enhance one's lessons. I read many books to my students and believe there is a lesson in all of the books I read. It gets my students motivated, engages their thinking, helps increase listening skills and it helps them discuss the topic being addressed.
I also love incorporating Arts to my lessons especially after reading a book. Art has always been one of my most favorite topics because being a very shy quiet student, I was always able to express myself through the Arts and feel that it can reach those quieter students and help the others express themselves in a new creative way.

I consider myself to be an organized and dedicated teacher. I enjoy drawing and creating things for my class. I believe a good teacher never stops learning. I still enjoy attending professional development because I know it's a way of getting new ideas to become a better teacher. I love traveling, spending time with friends and family, walking and spending time with my 11 year old son doing outdoor and indoor activities.
