My name is Valerie and I am from Ecuador, where I currently reside. I absolutely love what I do for a living and enjoy coming up with different teaching methods that cater to my students' needs and interests. In my classes, I make it a priority to create a friendly and relaxed environment without any unnecessary pressure. Traveling is one of my favorite things to do because I'm fascinated by different cultures. Learning a new language also means immersing yourself in a whole new culture, and that is something I truly believe. That is why I often incorporate cultural aspects, especially from South America, into my lessons.

As a professional, I am a confident, competent, disciplined, and responsible
person, dedicated to achieving a degree of excellence in all that I do. This is
accomplished by leveraging successes of past experiences, surrounding myself
with inspiring mentors and continually bench marking best practice.
My ability to think strategically, coupled with my organizational skills and ability
to get a job done, as well as my eagerness to become involved in diverse school
activities are part of my forte.

I am proficient in guiding children into learning by creating interesting
examples and models, developing novel interactive learning tools and creating
an enquiry centered approach to content that stir and challenge the young
mind. There is no greater reward than seeing the smile on the learner’s face as
he or she grasps a new concept or feels excited by recently discovered
knowledge. I am a task master; learners seeing improved results and realizing
that with effort comes reward is what I aspire to achieve with every individual
who enters my classroom.

If education is about the application of knowledge and intellectual skills, then
information technology is vital in today’s classroom. I embrace all the latest
technology available to work smarter and with more relevance to current global
trends. The Interactive White Board, the personal computer and the Internet are the
current tools that I employ. I look forward to the roll out of tablets in the classroom
which would further enhance diverse opportunities in teaching practice.
Knowing that success comes with teamwork, I consider myself to be a team
player and I am always enthusiastic about initiating and developing professional
relationships with my colleagues and with parents. In short, I have a love for
the teaching profession, and I have the right stuff to get things done.

I am and outgoing, friendly, passionate person. I always give of my best and want the best for others. I have always worked with children. I've worked as a swimming instructor, to owning my own swim school. I've been a Physical education teacher and worked worked with all age groups and now I am a grade 5 teacher. I love working with people, children in particular. I believe I have the authenticity and patience to do what I do and that is what makes me good. I am different because I embrace everyones difference, and challenges. I find ways to help rather than judge. I do believe I am unique. Teaching is a passion for me and making a difference in others' lives is a win.

I have a passion for teaching both young and old. During the pandemic, my children were able to continue with their education uninterrupted because i had the capability of teaching them. This is where i gained some of my experience in teaching. I also do a lot of community work teaching others to enhance themselves with basic life skills. My confidence has been enhanced through this work, and also giving me more informal teaching experience. I am very patient and always want my students to feel free to ask anything they are not sure of without hesitation. We all learn through asking questions.
