I am hired as a full-time teacher following student teaching practicum, instructing all academic subject areas to classrooms of up to 28 students.
I have lived for 8 years in Dublin, Ireland, where I worked and attended various courses on English as a Second Language Teaching, but due to family issues, I had to move back to Serbia.
Key Contributions:
n Earned high marks for the quality and creativity of classroom teaching, lesson plans and instructional materials used in teaching diverse subjects (e.g., language arts, mathematics, science, social studies and history).
n Learned and practiced innovative approaches that were repeatedly held up as the model standard for meeting district goals in areas including technology integration across the curriculum, experiential learning, literacy and diversity.
n Taught general education students as well as individuals with learning challenges and special needs within a mainstreamed, inclusive classroom.
n Consistently commended for ability to redirect students exhibiting behavior problems by replacing disruptive, unproductive patterns with positive behaviors. As a result, selected to lead district-wide in-service on classroom management.
n Actively served on a variety of school committees and task forces focused on curriculum development, textbook review, fundraising and anti-bullying efforts.
n Established positive relationships with students, parents, fellow teachers and school administrators/staff.
n Quickly became a “first-to-call” resource in current substitute teaching role, typically working five days per week. Personally requested by many full-time teachers to take over their classrooms during absences.
