Employment

Dear Sirs, I graduated from SUU in May of 2008. I am looking for a career in Elementary Education where I can use my education to shape and mold the lives of children. I feel that if children are given a positive foundation in school they will become lifetime learners. I have the tools to give them this start and would like the opportunity to apply the techniques I have learned to the lives of children. I have experience working with children at different grade levels and different levels of achievement. I ran a daycare center from my home for several years and then went into the public schools as an aide. I later became a long term substitute where I was given my own classroom for a year and a half. I worked in my children's classrooms as they were growing up and did my student teaching at the elementary level. I enjoy teaching children and have a passion for learning. I will be an asset to any school district that chooses me. Please review my resume, if you have any questions feel free to contact me at 435-867-5370 or 435-463-7800.
