I have served as a high school teacher in the State of Texas as well as Department Chair for my campus’

Career and Technology Department. As such, I was called upon to meet the daily needs of our youth by

engaging them through meaningful curriculum while still providing leadership for my team. I also helped

co-found an after school enrichment program for young woman. The premise of DIVAs was to provide

exposure to social settings that may be encountered as growing young adults as well as provide

knowledge and access to information needed to transition from high school to college. My experience as

a teacher also came with the ability to build interpersonal relationships with both my peers and

subordinates. I consistently demonstrated my ability to gain the respect and confidence of broad

spectrum of individuals.

 First and foremost, I am a certified educator in the area of Family and Consumer Sciences which is a

discipline that lends itself to developing career driven skills. In this field, personal development is a large

focus and encompasses the idea of promoting self through understanding relationships and developing

essential skills needed to be successful in the home, workplace and social environments. Courses in this

area help students to understand the importance of effective resume writing, professional communication,

and technological awareness.

 
I am writing to express my interest in working in the field of education in the capacity of ESL teacher or

any position which aligns with my skills and experience.
