Lakeside, Ca.

• Upheld good classroom management: established consistent consequences based on specified classroom rules and procedures.• Integrated personal teaching style with the teacher that I was substituting for and ensured appropriate student cooperation and participation with persistent dedication.

Over a period of 2 years, I student taught in order to obtain my Bilingual Art Credential and the year after that my Special Education Mild-Moderate (K-12) Credential. I student taught under the supervision of the following master teachers in sequential order: Brian Black, Mary Goins, & Elizabeth Finch. With consultation, collaboration, assessment, analysis, constructive criticism, and modifications of planning, organization, implementation, and follow-through of teaching goals, I dramatically improved and realized my teaching approach. As well, the program designed a gradual transition of Special Education and Bilingual Art content teaching responsibilities to eventually be personally administered, and I appropriately mastered the content-specific duties and nuances involved with both teaching credentials.
