  5. a little bit about me. I am a visual artist.
  6. I am an educator, I am a wife and a first time mom and I am a very patient and warm person.
  7. So why did I apply for this professional development
  8. position and what makes me a good fit?
  9. Um as an overview of what I'm going to be briefly talking about.
  10. I was a classroom teacher.
  11. I have something called the art teacher advantage and my current lifestyle.
  12. I'll make me a good fit for this position.
  13. So my recent classroom experience,
  14. I was a teacher for five years up until very recently I left the profession
  15. in last March um to welcome the birth of my husband and I first child,
  16. our son.
  17. Um my classroom experience gives me knowledge of how
  18. teachers work and function on a daily basis.
  19. Um So I have five years experience in the teaching profession and
  20. it was not that long ago that I left the classroom.
  21. So I have a very,
  22. the knowledge of what teachers are going through currently um in the classroom,
  23. especially with the pandemic and the
  24. struggles that that that's bringing teachers.
  25. Um I have experienced with students grades K through 12.
  26. My teaching experience started at the high school level.
  27. I taught grades nine through 12 visual arts and
  28. then I moved to elementary where I taught K.
  29. Through three visual arts after school.
  30. I worked at the 21st century learning program
  31. and I taught middle school age Children.
  32. So that gives me an approximate knowledge of the
  33. different ability levels of all different ages of Children.
  34. I have great interpersonal skills and I'm really used to being a team player.
  35. So those are all the things the good advantages I have from being a classroom teacher
  36. in the classroom. The technology that I used.
  37. Um President was my favorite for every project.
  38. I would research an artist do a short bio.
  39. I would put um images, I would make checklists for us.
  40. I would do visuals step by step of what we're going to do for each project.
  41. And I would present it all through
  42. President which kept students really engaged because
  43. it has bright pictures the way it's animated, it moves in a very exciting three D.
  44. Fashion. So Presi was my favorite.
  45. I have training and experience in google classroom especially with the pandemic.
  46. I have personal and professional experience using zoom and
  47. I also have experience using Photoshop and illustrator.
  48. So something I like to call the art teacher advantage. These are just some
  49. things that I really had to work on, especially being the art teacher.
  50. So multitasking is the first one. I have advanced skills and multitasking.
  51. I would work on 4-5 different projects in a day with various different media's.
  52. Um projects were often cross curricular and covered different GL.
  53. because I would see all great all the great levels that I taught in one day.
  54. Um oftentimes one class might work a little bit slower than another class.
  55. One class might be more advanced. So that made me really good at multitasking.
  56. I have excellent, excellent time management skills.
  57. Um I had to become a fast learner very quickly at the elementary level.
  58. My art classes were at the most 40 minutes,
  59. but typically more like 30 to 35 minutes including cleanup time.
  60. So it was a challenge really um to meet all the standards and project goals,
  61. especially with planning and lesson planning
  62. and making everything work in that short period of time.
  63. I would also only see classes once a week.
  64. So that gives me all very good time management skills
  65. and I'm used to being very flexible because there
  66. was oftentimes lots of changes in my schedule.
  67. I would be asked to supervise school activities or do things out of the classroom.
  68. So it made me a very flexible employee as well.
  69. And the last thing that I think makes me a good fit for
  70. this position is that I am still a stay at home mom currently,
  71. but I'm looking for part time work.
