About Monica

I am a current subsitute teacher. I teach students ages 0-20, multiple subjects. I taught college English as a student teacher, with remedial students. I also taught remedial math at the middle school level. I am able to adapt my teaching methods to the needs of the student and I enjoy teaching. I am currently completing my 5th year of substitute teaching in a district with 31 schools. I enjoy breaking down information so that my students can succeed. I love to be challenged and look forward to every experience with my students. Every new student is a new opportunity for me to learn and grow, so that I can help my students learn and grow.

I always intended to become a teacher. I have been subsitute teaching since halfway through my sophomore year in college. I started as Pre-Education at my college with a focus in Biology, completing educational psychology and my "sophomore experience"- the observation of a classroom over several weeks, including evaluations, prior to admission to the college's education department. I decided to graduate with just a B.S. in Biology and pursue my teaching license alternatively. I plan to teach High School Science.

I have been a substitute teacher for 5 years. I graduated in May 2019 with B.S. in Biology (4 year degree). I taught Remedial English as a student teacher while attending college. From September 2019 to January 2020, I taught Math Essentials, math for students below their grade level. This included students in 7th and 8th grade with ability levels between 2nd and 8th grade. I also tutor in my free time on most math and science subjects. I am also a 4th generation teacher. My entire family are teachers; mom, dad, aunts, uncles, siblings, grandparents etc...

About the lesson

I first get to know my students interests outside of the classroom, to build a base for small talk. I usually ask: "what do you do in your free time?" or "do you have siblings?" or "what is your favorite/least favorite aspect of school?". These questions allow me to put the student at ease and gives us something to talk about.

I have worked in 2 separate school districts. I worked for the first 1.5 years in my home school district. The rural district I worked in consisted of one K-12 school with approximately 500 students total. I subbed for a variety of students. I now sub in a school district with 31 schools, including Early Education and an Alternative school. I have subbed in the Early Ed classrooms, children aged 0-5, and in the regular elementary, middle and high schools. I have subbed for almost every subject including math, science, orchestra, band, art, social studies, remedial course and special education. I have also spent extensive time in the Alternative school. In the alternative school, I have encountered students with learning disabilities, behavioral issues, motor skill issues, aggressive behavior and mental illness. My students span the spectrum in terms of ability, struggles and general attitude.

I would advise the student to ask what the instructor is most interested in, this is usually what they know the most about. For example, I took a large amount of plant science classes, so I am more knowledgable about plants than animals. I would also ask if the instructor has tutored before, it is usually easier to break down information if you do it frequently.

I recently went to my Grandfather's 74th birthday party. I got to talk to my parents and sister, who are teachers, about silly things that happen in classrooms. I also got to see my entire family and update them on my life. It was nice to play with my younger brother, age 9, and my cousins.

A few things worth thinking about before reaching out
A student should think about how they learn best. Are you a visual learner? or Do you learn better through activities? or Do you have an easier time when you work and ask for help as you go? . I would also think about what you struggle with most, Do you struggle with testing? Deadlines? Projects? Critical thinking?. As a student, the best information you can give me is how you learn best and what you struggle with most. This information allows me to alter my teaching strategies and gain a better understanding of how I can help you
