When I moved to the US in 2008, Teaching French was my first job when I first came to the US. I actually stepped upon teaching by accident and discovered I really loved it and was pretty good at it. I really enjoyed sharing my knowledge and culture with my students. When I moved to a small town of Iowa where teaching French was not an option, I worked as a Pre School teacher assistant and had the most amazing time working with those children. The teacher I worked for was a wonderful teacher who actually gave me teaching responsibility and it motivated me to go back to school to be certified and become a teacher myself.
I have great social skills. I am a people's person and have very good relation with children and adults. I am also very
Teaching was very natural for me. I felt comfortable and confident working in all my classrooms. I was fortunate to have the support from all supervising teachers and they provided me guidance and knowledge as I continued to grow in the classroom. I couldn’t wait to go to college so I could focus on teaching every day and officially start my journey as a future
I taught for 25 years at an inner city school. My students were all second language learners, and often their parents were totally illiterate. I entered this career not as a teacher, but as a social worker turned teacher. The Los Angeles Unified School District was in dire need of bilingual educators, so they offered a district intern program where I took college courses while I worked in the classroom.
My passion for teaching started at a very young age. My mother is a first grade teacher and gave me my first exposure to teaching. Any time anyone asked me what I was going to be when I grew up I always said I would be a teacher. Once I started attending El Camino College, I was a tutor at my elementary school, which is where my mother teaches. My first hands on experience

Ms. Bennett reported that she felt she was managing her schoolwork relatively okay at school. However, she stated that when she was in her forth grade, the school involuntarily placed her in Individualized Education Program (IEP) even though she did not feel the need. Ms. Bennett admitted that she is in fact a slow learner, but that she felt “indifferent” from other students. She reported that the teachers from the IEP did not do anything to teach the objective material but allowing a group of students, including Ms. Bennett to watch a series of movies during class for the entire grades since the beginning of the placement. She described that no one was encouraged to learn in the IEP classroom, and furthermore, their classroom was located in the back of the school behind all the classrooms for the regular curriculum as if the students in the IEP were not important. Ms. Bennett explained that she was able to obtain passing grades regardless of what she did in the classroom.
When I arrived the job wasn’t exactly what I had imagined, a common experience for many expats. I ended up teaching at a lot more locations than the university, but I think it was good experience for me. Having the opportunity to teach at other places let me try my hand at teaching a variety of different age groups. After working at my first job in Changchun for a year and a half, I changed jobs to work at Rutgers Newark Institute in Northeast Normal
According to the “How Do I Learn Best” page, my learning style is visual. This is accurate as well, seeing as when I am studying I will usually write down whatever I am learning multiple times. I also take a lot of extra notes in class and use flash cards, charts and pictures when studying. Classes I do better in because of this are English, history, religion, and any class with a lot of note-taking. Careers I could pursue that would incorporate my learning style might be being a journalist, a composer, a videographer or a
This case may or may not have consideration for a voidable contract. It can be proven that Steve was (or probably was) intoxicated then. Bill and Steve were out drinking, this insinuates that they were at bars together, there could be proof from receipts showing how many drinks were purchased and the bartenders or video (of available) could verify that Steve was drinking. But considering that the fair market value and what Steve said he would sell it for, and that Bill agreed to the fair price a judge could rule that Steve has to sell his home. Steve was voluntary intoxicated, and Bill was not taking advantage Steve, the price was equal to the fair market value, however, if Bill counter
Human development does not occur in a vacuum and is affected by variation in people on multiple levels such as the style of parenting that they were raised with, socioeconomic status, and peer influence. Three major classifications of variation for human development are biological, cognitive, and socioemotional. By analyzing the interactions of these variations between people and their responses when presented with varying situations, developmental psychologists can see what causes people to act the way they do. Critically acclaimed television show Freaks and Geeks, features a high school freshman named Sam who is a geek (Feig, P. & Lin, P., 2000). In the show, Sam’s freshman year presents many different struggles as he develops in a 1980s suburb. This paper explores the biological, cognitive, and socioemotional development of Sam in the episode ‘Girlfriends and Boyfriends’, along with the associated developmental context in an analysis concerning the development of Sam as an adolescent.

I walk over to the nine-year-old boy sitting across the room as I reach for my pen and sheet of paper. As I approached him, I halted. Quietly, I asked him what he needed help with. Looking confused, he asked me what the word bough meant. I froze. I didn’t know what the word meant. Embarrassed of not knowing a fifth grade word, I asked the teacher for some assistance and after she told me what the word meant I understood and was then able to explain to him that a bough is just a synonym for a branch. Noticing that David was still confused as to what he was reading, I sat beside him and allowed him to read the passage out loud to me. While I defined the words that he didn’t know and listened to him read the passage, I was able to classify him as an English learner who just wanted to be just as good as the other kids.
I was initially attracted to the College of Literature, Science, and the Arts (LSA) because I discovered that within its English major there is a creative writing program, which appeals to my desire to continue studying literature while at the same time developing my skills and exploring my creativity as a writer. The program within the major involves multiple workshops and tutorials on both poetry and fiction, which can provide me with the independence and flexibility to learn by writing original content and develop my own portfolio of work. Furthermore, courses within the LSA’s English major are very diverse, ranging from Intro to Autobiography to Native American Literature. This diversity will help me form a strong foundation in literature through the study of works from many eras, genres, and styles. This exposure to such a diversity of literature will also help me hone in on what style of writing I like the best and want to continue to study in my future academic career as well as in personal projects.
What I learned from my partner's answer was she doesn’t receive any forms that relays any information about the curriculum that’s being learned in her daughter’s classroom. She typically knows what her child is learning because she sits down every night to go over her daughter’s homework and review together, apart from the fact that she needs to sign the homework for the teacher every day. She confessed that sometimes she struggles with the homework because she doesn’t remember using some of the methods, in the homework while she was in school herself. When occasions like this happen she tends to google or YouTube the answers. Like mentioned earlier she’s the one who puts most of the efforts to communicate with the teacher. She believes if
My brother is one of my best best friends. Growing up I idolized him and I always wanted to do what he did. Weather it was playing basketball in the front yard or wrestling around being kids. He is 7 years older than me but growing up that never mattered because although he did bully and tees me like a normal older brother he always came around to helping me or defending me. The gap in age wasn't a problem we got along as if we were the same age ever since i could walk. When my brother grew older and entered high school things started to change. Over the 4 years of high school he became the good looking, fit, smart, funny athlete that everyone loved. He was the captain of both the football and wrestling team. He had a 4.0 G.P.A and a personality that could light up a room.
