About Rachel

Experience: 10 yrs

Hello! I am a graduate at the University of Vermont with a degree in Early Childhood Education and Special Education and a minor in American Sign Language. A little about me: I am passionate educator and sign language interpreter who lives to support the lives of students and their families. I have taught third grade, and Kindergarten full time as a lead educator. My fiancé and I moved to Tempe two years ago from Vermont where I was born and raised. I am an extremely organized, diligent and creative. For 10 years, I have taught and cared for young children of various abilities between the ages of three months- 22 years. I currently interpret sign language at a local school. I accommodate and tailor to the needs of individuals; I work to make a positive impact in children's lives, focusing on scaffolding and reinforcement and child led play. Seeking a position in childcare this summer. I would love to hear more details about your care position if you are willing! Thank you!

It is my honor to write a recommendation on behalf of Rachel. I had the pleasure of working with Rachel both in my capacity as a classroom teacher and outside the classroom as a parent of a child in her classroom. I was able to witness first hand her adaptability to change in our new landscape in the teaching environment. It was impressive how the management of the classroom never wavered and had a steady flow. All students had their needs met and active learning was ongoing for everyone. I am confident in any care position she will do an outstanding job. She is driven, adaptable, compassionate, and well grounded.
