Skills and
Experience

Self-Motivated, dependable, strong leadership skills, and dedicated to success

Learns new software and programs easily, eager to learn and try new things
o Example: When our school first got ActivBoard software and technology, we received little initial
training. Through watching videos and talking with peers, and self-exploration, I became adept at
using the technology in a reasonably short period of time, and now many people come to ask me
questions about it and get help.

Stays current with new teaching strategies and research based educational ideas
