My Marketing Text I have created this profile to collaborate with my team members in Technology Foundations 600A at National University and as a future professional resource in my teaching career.
| |||||||||
My Philosophy I believe that every child can learn. Despite any social, emotional, economical, physical and/or psychological problems the student might be experiencing, I strive everyday to have the students in my class leave school feeling hopeful and successful. | |||||||||
My Community The last 8 years I have taught First Grade at Ross Elementary in the San Diego Unified School District. Before that I worked for 5 years as a primary grade teacher at Chollas Elementary. Both school communities are rich in culture and I have enjoyed using ESL strategies as well as technology to help my learners. | |||||||||
My Environment The school I currently teach at, Ross Elementary, has approximately 300 students. Our school is small and we have a lot of parent and community involvement. This year with the help of a grant we are able to continue class size reduction in all the primary grades, with the max being 18 students. | |||||||||
My Roles and Responsibilities I feel that my role as a first grade teacher, is not only to teach reading and math, but to help the children develop a love of learning. Their early years in school and the attitudes and feelings they develop are so crucial in their future academic success. |

My Philosophy Being part of a "community of learners" where teachers, administrators, students, anyone can collaborate and share and learn from each other. I created My eCoach to harness the power of the Internet to make a learning community where everyone shares ideas and resources and helps each other so they do not reinvent the wheel over and over again. My focus has been on "Making Learning Personal" to empower learners to develop agency. Now it's going deeper with defining your WHY. | ||||
My Community The San Francisco Bay Area is a very diverse community with a exciting mixture of ethnic groups, delicious eateries, and lots of things to do. We have the best weather and climate. My eCoach offers anyone an online community where learning and sharing can happen at anytime from anywhere. | ||||
My Environment The My eCoach environment changes often where groups start their own communities for their school, district, online courses, church groups, cancer support groups, book clubs, movie clubs, and almost anything. | ||||
My Roles and Responsibilities I write, present, keynote, facilitate workshops, design new materials, and coach individuals and groups to help Define Your WHY.. I blog on my website, Rethinking Learning and host my podcast, Conversations on Learning. I also co-host the #rethink_learning Twitter chat every other Monday 4p PT, 7p ET.
