Reflection of Being an Educator

I am a highly qualified educator with a Colorado Department of Education Professional Teaching License (#0373452A) in Special Education and Social Studies, a Bachelor of Arts Degree from the University of New Mexico, and over a decade of experience working with at risk students and their families in my community. To further educate myself I am completing a Master’s Degree in Instructional Design at the University of Colorado at Denver. It is my objective to further contribute to the education of our inner city youth, give them the opportunity to be competitive in today’s global economy by giving them the tools to be successful adults.

I am currently teaching high school age children who have some of the most severe needs and criminal behaviors in the city as special educator with (D.A.Y.S) Denver Area Youth Services-Bryant Street Academy. I recently worked at Gateway High School in Aurora as a Special Education, U.S. History Teacher, and Head Wrestling Coach for two years. I worked in New Mexico at Gadsden Independent School District near the U.S. Mexican Border as a Special Education Teacher/Case Manager where I taught math and science classes at Santa Teresa Middle School. I was also the Head Wrestling Coach at Santa Teresa High School. My preparation includes, but is not limited to teaching Language Arts, Math, Science, Social Studies, Physical Education, and Study Skills. I have mastered the Special Education IEP process and I am well aware of new laws in Special Education. My area of expertise is working with students who are at a high risk of dropping out of school. I have acquired good administrative, counseling and communication skills; I am also reliable, disciplined, responsible, and energetic.

In addition, I have been employed with Roswell Independent School District as a Special Education Teacher/Case Manager and Track and Field Coach. Gallup-McKinley County Schools as a Special Education Teacher/Case Manager and Wrestling Coach, I was also the Athletic Director, and Head Cross-Country Coach at St. Anthony's Indian School in Zuni, New Mexico Native American Reserve. Prior to that, I was employed as a Substitute Teacher/Tutor, Assistant Wrestling Coach for El Paso County School District #11, and for Harrison School District #2 in Colorado Springs, Colorado. I know my qualifications make me the strongest candidate for a Special Education Teacher who is also an aspiring Instructional Designer.
