Manager

I have worked as a Teacher Assistant from elementary through college since 2005. My work as a Teacher Assistant proved both enormously rewarding and fulfilling, especially where I was able to teach ESL students in their reading and helped them in problem solving. Although the joys of classroom assisting in homework club and interaction with young students continued to reward me, I am now seeking a more challenging position in teaching at the adult school levels as one of my aspirations. One of my first experiences was in my student teaching, where I was assigned to a group of six-​college freshman that were struggling in the class and the teacher could not devote the time to bring them up to speed since it would affect everyone else. Initially, I understood the problem of the students was the language barrier and that also some of the students had started the semester a few days late. So I tried to deal with the problem by suggesting them to buy the Oxford American College Dictionary.
